I am tall and muscular and a former full size Bronco owner (a horror story. Perhaps I was spoiled but the Bronco's almost perfect interior accomodations. My expensive 2001 3.5XS sucks as far as performance, gas mileage AND most importantly interior. There are no real cruise control controls on the steering wheel except the on/off lever which isn't as good as Ford's control system. The driver's seat literally gives me a pain in the behind to the point of being unable to drive for longer than an hour. I am going to dump it because of that pain. It looks great and is very reliable but it's the pain that will cause me to dispose it.

When we first got the MS there was a oily substance leaking from it. I took it back to the dealership and I haven't had a problem since. It was something that had jarred loose during shipment and hey it came from Japan so maybe a few bumps. I love the ride and the kids love being up high. You can be stylish or sporty all in one vehicle. The four wheel drive is great. I lease it and am thinking of buying a new one and keeping it when the lease is up on this one if it continues to be just as great. I have never repeated a make of vehicle and I have had 5 vehicles in 13 years but Mitsubishi is a definite repeat.

My MS XS kicks butt!

I love my MS XS! I've had it for over a year now and have not had one problem (knock on wood) other than a factory recall which was fixed promptly. Sure, you don't get great gas mileage, but what do you want from a 4,000 pound SUV. It has just enough power, rides so smooth for a truck and looks better than any other SUV around (in my opinion)!
