Although the motor company itself is in big trouble right now, it does not affect the quality of this car. It has been proven for years of challenges and glorious results in the Paris-Dakkar rally. The car's great!!!

Awesome handling on and off road. Exceptionally easy shifting (while driving)into 4whldrv. SAFE! Great for kids and adults. Incredible aesthetic design and beauty (interior and exterior)...unmatched! Massive sun roof, very Fun! Comfort like a big Easy! heated seats, plush leather, seat adjustments. Back seat even comfortable on Beach!!! Worth all $42,000!!!

Better Than MY landcruiser

Lease is ending on my 1998 Landcruiser and opted to buy a MONTERO lIMITED. Price of $35,150 before tax with the preferred package and interest rates of 1.9% for 72 months made this the easy financial choice. 200 miles and it's a better riding, quieter, and averaging better mileage than my Landcruiser. landcruiser had 28,000 miles on it, two electrical problems and many others problems. This Mitsubishi seems to have a better build quality, more comfortable, and way more storage with the disappearing third seat. Time will tell what type of quality is really there but for now I would rate it much higher than a Toyota.

I love my Montero!!

Gas mileage is bound to be an issue with a vehicle this size, so I accept that. I was shopping for yet another minivan when I spotted this beauty at the dealership. I told the salesman,"If this comes with a third seat, I'll take it." Magically a third seat was produced from out of the floor! I piled all my kids inside and drove around town. I was instantly hooked. I've never had a vehicle that I loved like this: reliable, trouble-free, beautiful, rugged, and accommodating. You can't go wrong!

I waited on this vehicle and it was worth it. My brother-in-law has a Discovery and my brother has a Navigator, both wish they had gotten to the Montero before I did. This is a smooth, capable SUV. I would like to dispute the critics that say it doesn't handle well. If you want to whip around curves and do slalom testing, get a Porsche, leave the Montero to those of us who were looking for a luxury SUV, with distinct styling and superior appointments. And relative to the useless third row. I use it often. True, I have smaller children. But if I wanted a bus I would have bought an Econline.
