Looks - tonka toy look sort of grows on you over time interior - a step above most of the other mid-price suv's. reclining back seats great for kids. 3rd row completely disappears, but only good for very occasiuonal kid use quality - too many issues - broken seals in awd system, breaks that won't release, power- terrible, the reason you ulimately regret the purchase advice - by an MDX or step up to a Land Cruiser

I love this vehicle. I have 167,000 miles on this vehicle. The only money spent was on general maintenance items. No break downs or repairs. The timing belt is supposed to be changed every 60,000 miles, but I changed after 90,000 miles and only once thus far.I change oil every 6,000 miles. it does seem to take about a quart of oil every 2,000 miles.I purchased this vehicle with 27,000 miles on it.

Very pleased thus far. All the amenities I ever wanted. Went through 3 dealers for the Limited and none would come close to the invoice price posted at Edmunds. Do not know how feasable it is to get invoice price. Power leaves something to be desired, but love everything else on the vehicle. Comparing to other like models, I feel this is the best deal.

I've owned my Montero for 15 months now and i'm unpleased with it's performance and resale value. This vehicle is seriously underpowered and tends to be tipsy. I'll never buy another Montero!
