This has been my first SUV's and after lookng at several this one suited my needs in terms of having a good amount of space and not spending the money for an Escalade or Navigator. It is a very comftorable ride and isn't as bad on gas as some other larger SUV's. I am a little dissapointed in the overall handling for highway driving and I think they could improve the 3rd row seating.

Bought my 2003 Montero used (driven 1 year), so took advantage of a great price cut. Was in virtually new condition. Well put together, workmanship is very good. Runs great. V6 has adequate power for me, I don't tow. Fuel economy is okay for an SUV. Very reliable and roomy. I rarely go offroad, but this thing is one of the more capable stock 4x4s. Handles snow and dirt just fine. The Infinity radio system is okay. Controls and gauges are well laid out. For what I paid, I'm very happy. Too bad Mitsu has decided to stop selling the Monty in the US.

This is my 3rd Montero. Also owned an 89 and a 94. Quality and Confort are great. New larger 3.7 litre engine is a big improvement. This is a HEAVY vehicle you feel safe in. Had it for about 4 weeks - and i'm not disappointed. A quality built and unique looking SUV.

Coming up on my first year aniversary of driving my Montero Limited, all I can say is I love it! After deciding to purchase a SUV over another car, I spent a great deal of time researching and test driving, it came down to the MB, Volvo and the Montero - value for money, Montero won hands down! taking into consideration the servicing, Montero is a lot less expensive to maintain, Its great reputation overseas and the fact that its not a "cookie cutter" SUV, truely makes it fun and unique to drive.

This is our first Mitsubishi. Previously owned 3 Subaru Outbacks. Loved the Outbacks, but they were just to small with grandchildren starting to arrive. We have taken the Montero on 2 road trips in excess of 1500 miles each. Have no complaints. It has done everything we have asked it to do. I have been a reader of Consumer Reports for quite a while, but am starting to question their "poor" rating on this vehicle. We have driven this in snow, rain and ice and have always felt very secure. We have used the 3rd row seat several times and have found it to be very useful.
