Excellent vehicle
We have owned three Montero's, two new, one bought as a lease return. Other than the SUV type of gas mileage they have been terrific vehicles, great comfort, quality build and enjoying to own. Mitsubishi makes fine product and we will consider the next generation of smaller Mitsu SUV's when the time comes. Buy used with confidence
Love my Montero!
However, do not bother repairing the rear A/C, if you have it. It will just fail again.

Still great after 100,000 miles
It's been five years and and 105,000 miles and I still love my '03 Montero LTD. If they still sold new ones in the US, I'd be buying another. But, I'll gladly hold on to this one for another 100,000 miles or so! I'm very impressed by this vehicle.
Not Just For The Dogs
After looking to replace my Ford Explorer with another I just wasn't sold. Having three large dogs was a consideration as was having to drive clients. Unlike my previous SUVs I can fold down the seats to create the dog barrier; no more of those bulky fences, and the dogs can be closer to front seat passengers. The interior is classy and has drawn many a compliment, even from a pal who'd recently purchased the Benz SUV. Handles like a dream in rain and snow; I ski so it's been put to the test. We haul our motorcycle trailer with it and it doesn't slow us down a bit. Oh, did I mention the extra large sunroof...
DO'S AND DON'TS
This is my first full size Montero, two others before were sports. This vehicle is all around a nicer vehicle with better quality materials used in it. I have the 2003 and I can see it is clear that many poeople reviewing this car as Mitsubishi sales people. I guess you can't weed them out. Nice car but not the right one for me. Mitsubishi was also horrible to deal with through the whole. Had no care that I already had two previous. Never again will I deal with them.
