Love my Montero Sport
Bought my '99 Montero Sport used with 18,000 miles in late 2000. Truck now has 54,000 miles on it. Have had two minor problems with it. Easy fix by dealer. Did have locks taken off the wheels (saw that one comming!). Drives solid and smooth. Style is great, looks better then most other new SUV's. Use mine off road for hunting. It will go most any where! Love it!
love my truck
leased my SUV in 1999. considering buying out my lease. Very realiable, drove cross country no problems. Lots of space for moving. fun to drive and looks sharp.
Slightly better than a bus pass
The worst experience I had with this truck was changing a flat tire. The truck cames with wheel locks that strip after being tightened with a torque wrench. Had to get the thing towed in to the dealer to have the tire changed. Th dealer stated that is one of their major complaints. After being standed on the highway on Mothers day, paying almost $200.00 in towing fees, replacing the lug nuts and losing a days pay I would rather have a bus pass. Wrote Mitsubishi and got the brush off. This is my first Mitsubishi and my last unless all other auto makers go out of busines.
Money Trap
Thinking this would be the alternative to an expensive SUV, what you save in $$ initially over a Grand Cherokee or land Rover you will pay for in Maintenance. Went through Brake Rotors 5 times. We only drove it 10k a year. 3 of these were before the car had 12,000 miles. Very noisey, rough handeling steering very rough. Felt very tinny, not sturdy. For a truck you would think it would be able to handle a small pothole without sounding like it was going to fall apart!
Looks Great..Runs Great..Great Price
Purchsed this truck with only 20K miles, it has been great every step of the way. NO to Low mantance, oil, tires and brakes. Fun for the family, we go to the mountians and the beach, plenty of room and plenty of fun. I can't say enough about the car (for the price.)
