1989 Montero LS

I am the third owner of this Montero LS. It has 205000 on it as of this week and it can still take off from the line. I bought this truck to use in winter since my main car is my baby and I don't like to drive it in snow. I drive the truck daily now from autumn til summer and it is great. The truck was in no way properly maintained by its previous owner but still runs like a peach. I will be doing pretty much a full engine and electrical rebuild in summer of 09 and will do some things to the surface rust to make the truck look like new.

it's very reliable, never get stuck, look very good, the only modifications I done to mine, was the superwinch manual locking hubs, 16" tires, bushguard, remote starter, Yakima roof racks. The engine and the transmission are just perfect.

We are the orginal owners...now have 224,000 miles. Engine rebuilt once, new rings, new head, 3rd oil pump. Works like brand new now, saving it to give to our 16 year old son. This is the only car he has known...Have been to Quebec twice in the past two years in it. It is very tough built and reliable

I drove this SUV off the lot new in June of 1990. It's the only vehicle my two teenage daughters can remember me owning. Original manual clutch, original engine w/ 250,000 plus miles. Still runs but needs an engine rebuild. Replaced the computer once due to the idle servo motor shorting out. That was a $1000 fix and the most costly repair today. I just purchased the new Toyota FJ Cruiser after 17 years. Only time will tell if it can endure as well as the Montero. Hate to see old faithful go.

1990 LS this car has been in my family for almost 30 years 275,000 miles and my father keeps track of the miles to this day I get a phone call asking for them and what needs to be done or greased moon roof still works AC is on point. I do need the weather strips around the moon roof, just got new upgraded shocks my pops for the longest would not let me modify anything but he’s coming around even though I bought it off him a few years back. Love this car I won’t sell it unless it’s in writing it will be kept on the road or serviced. I do get offers all the time. This car is as solid as they come
