Great SUV

This has been a great family SUV. It stores a ton of baby stuff when we head to grandma & grandpa's house. 20K now and not one problem. Owned a Mighty Max for 11 years and never had a problem so I would expect nothing less for the Montero Sport.

Depreciation Blues

No problems to complain about with the vehicle. However I was totally shocked at the rate of depreciation when I decided to refinance to a lower interest rate. I like many others jumped on the zero down, zero payments with zero interest for one year deal with thoughts of refinancing with my credit union when the year was up.To my surprise the vehicle had droped in value by about 10K in only one year. Buyers beware of the 'snake oil' deals, you'll pay high interest through the Mits Finance Corp, and if you want to refinance after a year good luck! The key is to pay on it during the 'free' year (which negates the whole advantage)

I love my XLS! Handles great, hardly feel when it shifts. The A/C is outstanding, I'm in marching band and after our 4 hour practices in the hot sun, getting in this A/C is great - it gets cold quickly.

Although Mitsubishi cars have had problems in the past, such as flipping over, i think that it all depends on how u drive. The Montero Sport is one of the best looking SUV's on the road and the awesome interior gadgets are actually useful and awesome! Stering is quick to respond and the brakes are excellent for a big car like this! If u are looking for a good deal, nice looking SUV, and aren't too hyped on the safety this SUV is for u!

The Dealer can no fix the alignment, everytime i bring it in, it will pull to the right or left when they are done, still need alignment to get fixed. Fuel economy is expected to be poor, try to squeeze a lot of horse power out of a small V6, but it's ok, peppy. I would have thought after spending 32K on this, I would have auto headlights, and heated side mirros, but these can be improved on. Truck looks cool, great color combo. Seats are really stiff, there are other SUV's around the same price that are more comfortable.
