Bimmer and Benz Buyers missed out big

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.

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.

I basically love the exterior, the interior, the way it drives and not to forget the worth of money I paid. IIt's a piece of luxury, sport and class. I recommend it.

Not Very Powerful

My Montero runs pretty smoothly on the highway and when going high speeds. Problem is that it is hard to pick up speed, and it seems to struggle when I am acclerating. When my car is idle, the engine sounds like it is working very hard even though it is doing nothing.Good thing is that you can't hear it very welll from inside the car unless the windows are down. Overall it has a comfortable ride, but very useless 3rd row seats.
