I LOVE my Montero Sport!!! I had decided that I would buy myself a M.S. when I graduated in May of 2003 as a college graduation present to myself but with the excellent deals they have had recently went ahead and purchased. I absolutely love it. There is virtually no outside noise, even on the highway, and the power is adequate for my needs. It definitely does not have a "truck feel" and I do quite a bit of driving. I really do enjoy driving now and am the first to volunteer to run errands for the family.

I used to own a Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. After over a year, I drove from MI to NJ then the AC failed... then after two years of driving the transmission failed. I did some research and finally have the SUV of my dream. Never failed me.

As soon as I left the dealership, I've noticed some issues with my SUV. Terrible wind noise. After several complaints and trips to the dealership, Mitsubishi sent out a rep to inspect my ride. He adjusted the racks but no major improvement. Final verdict - poor vehicle design. Oh, something else, the transmission is sort of whack. It jumps before reaching 75 MPH

Sure there are lots of SUV's to choose from, but no other manufacturer offers the kind of incentive to purchase that Mitsubishi does. I also like the fact that there are (currently) relatively few Montero Sport's on the road (as opposed to the over-abundance of Explorer's & Xterra's...yawn). Additionally, there's plenty of cargo space & passenger room in the rear. It's been said before, the power is not where it needs to be (e,g., the unacceptable lag time when you press the accelerator), but other than that, after four months, I'm still pleased with my decision.
