My best SUV

I now have 126,000 miles on my Montero Limited. I have not had a single problem with it. It is the most versatile vehicle I have ever owned. I need a good off road vehicle that is comfortable for my daily commute. The Montero is awsome off road. I put around 1,000 off pavement miles on it annually and it kicks butt. It was born to be driven in dirt, mud, and snow. It has great storage. I take the third seat out and use the compartment for storing camping and hunting gear year round. I can't get rid of it because it still feels new. My dilema is that they will quit making them after 2006. I made up my mind that I will always own one, but I guess Mitsubishi messed that up for me.

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!!!

My Second Montero

I searchd for months before I decided on my 2002 Mitsubishi Montero. My 1995 Montie was totaled by a drunk. I was able to get the Limited model which has just enough features for me. I tow with it and use it in the New England snow. I also like that there are not a million of these on the road, at least not in the US.

We were looking at an Explorer and a Cherokee and the Montero and found this one-year old Montero Limited. We loved driving it, got it for a good price and decided we wanted it. I went from driving a Firebird to this so I am very pleased with the head/leg room. I LOVE the exterior look (one thing I couldn't convince my husband on about the explorer). It has adequate get-up-and-go and manages very nicely. We love it, couldn't ask for a better SUV.

The heater doesn't warm as well as it should. The car alarm is too touchy. When trickle charging with the hood slightly open, the slightest movement sets off the alarm. Have someone show you exactly how to remove the spare tire and change a tire!
