Used 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport Consumer Reviews
Quick Review
Overall, it's a good investment. Do not expect too much from the car since you are not paying a high price on it.
Like It, but Wouldn't Buy One Again
I traded in my Jeep Grand Cherokee for the Montero because I wanted something bigger that is good in the snow. Overall, I wish I hadn't. The Montero gets good gas mileage and seems to be reliable so far (I have under 70,000 miles). It has an awful turning radius, the A/C doesn't work and this winter my 4WD stopped working when I needed it most. However, I haven't put money into it and it's very roomy, which is great for trips with lots of luggage. Also, it doesn't hold its value. I like it, but I'd go with a Jeep next time.

Nice Truck
I really like this truck. For what it is, fuel economy isn't bad. I get 18 city / 22 highway. The thing tows great. I tow both my Vettes and my smaller cars, through the hills of PA, with no issues at all. The truck looks really good. The styling is spot on. Surprisingly, I get as many compliments on this truck, as I do my cars. This truck is like an old shirt, faithful dog, good friend. I like it a lot, and I recommend it.
I'd buy another
I bought my SUV with 30,000 after reviewing consumer rating and maintenance reports. I made the purchase with only one concern, the maintenance cost. I've maintained the required maint. on schedule and to date I have to say I am very happy with the decision. This is a great vehicle and lot of fun to drive. I currently have over 124,000 mile and the engine, performance and handling are excellent. I have no regrets.
Poor Man's Lexus
I have the beautiful 14K Gold MS LTD. I live in a nice neighborhood where some folks can afford the Lexus & Acura SUV's. Mine looks better and runs just as good for less than half the price! I bought it one year old with 25K but it still looks and runs like new. Never a problem with the vehicle. Friends family and neighbors all love it and compliment it all the time. Like it better than the Pathfinder I had before this vehicle.
