I purchased this vehicle over 3 years ago after graduating form college. Currently it has over 107,000 miles and I plan to get at least 100,000 more as I put in alot of miles in a day. The only major repairs i've had to make is replacing the timing belt which is part of the scheduled maintenance. Love the seating for seven and how it retains the truck like styling. Make no mistakes, if you want a nice ride and don't often go off road, don't get this vehicle. It is a truck and rides like one. That's why I like it so much. Performs well in deep snow (2.5'), rain and mud. Does lack some horsepower.
Love It.

I have found a vehicle that I love. I don't care for the new body style of the 2001's and newer. I have been very happy with this vehicle from day 1. I hunt, so I often take the vehicle off- road and my job requires much travel so I am on the highway with it as well....I love this car.

This SUV is so good I just can't get rid of it. There is no legit reason for me to sell it and it won't die. Why pay tens of thousands of dollars on a newer SUV when this one is so solid and performs just the same? It's indestructible!
Thinking of a 2nd

I bought this 97 model in early 1998. I have over 170,000 miles on her and she still accelerates briskly and is fun to drive. I am considering purchasing a 2000 model with the squared off wheelwells as this is the only version I find to be more appealing than my own. I am only considering selling it because at some point a majot part has to break... doesn't it? I have had no major problems and have been pleasantly surprised to be getting Honda mileage from a Mitsubishi. I have a long torso and have a difficult time finding an SUV with headroom. The Montero has bags of headroom. I am very happy to be looking for a 2nd Monetero.

we bought this car new in late 96 we do not go off-road much but it does the job well when needed it has been very reliable we do all scheduled maintance it is not comfortable for long trips we had twins in college and this car really held a lot of stuff, especially with a luggage carrier on top the jump seats are more of a nuisance in that it robs the rear of space but if you have small kids, they would be fine the mileage is not great - around 16mpg around town
