Best Auto I've Owned

I've owned my Montero for almost 4 years and I still love it! I take it everywhere: in the snow, sand, mountains, and on long road trips (2,000 miles+). Never had a problem, with proper care it will last another 30 years. The strength of the Montero is better than anything I have seen. Almost impossible to damage.

Solid SUV

We've had this vehicle for about 3 years/40,000 miles and have only performed scheduled maintenance on it - but maintenance tends to be expensive. Not as refined as the newer Montero, it's a good solid SUV with fold-up third row seating for better flexibility. Gas mileage is about 17 mpg.

It's a good solid ”body on frame” SUV. Great for upgrading for true off-roading but ok highway driving.

Been a good ride

I've had it for a while now, been real dependable til it got hot and warped the heads. Now I'm looking for a good used motor that won't break me. $1,600 is just more than I feel like paying at this point. Thinking about sailing the axles and 4W/D unit and dropping a 351W in it. Who knows?
