I drive 30,000 miles per year in all kinds of weather. I needed cargo space and 4wd. This was the most reasonably priced, least ugly vehicle in this category. I never buy new, but finding something with low mileage would've cost me close to what this cost me new. I don't expect luxury in this price range - and I sure didn't get it, but it's decent looking, inside and out. I'm not thrilled about the velour cloth seats, I don't think they'll hold up. Dash and side interior panels are a weird textured rubbery material that seem to mark up fast. Maybe some protectant will fix that.

The car was fine; the company is quite slimy. They did not respond to complaint letters. Then they tried to bill me thousands in phony repairs. They also tried to charge a late fee. The car was returned late because the person they asked me to contact was on vacation for two weeks. Then he turned out to be a slaesman from Mitsubishi trying to sell me a new car. What a mess!

Good value if you don't drive a lot

Here is an update from 5/09. If you are easy on the gas pedal you will be rewarded with avg mileage of up to 30+mpg. Seat covers and rubber material on dash are poor - they are dust and hair magnets. Bad choice. I drive 100 miles, 5 days per week. I do not have lumbar/back problems, I do now. My back is aching, seats are extremely uncomfortable. Good value if you don't drive a lot. Otherwise, look at something else or get leather, maybe that helps.

The outlander has exceeded all my expectations. I chose it for the technology features like the navigation, music server, sound system, and backup camera. None of the competitors had anything even close in its price range. Driving is smooth, quiet, yet powerful.

It baffles me that I don't see more of these on the road. Every time I tell someone about my new car, they've never heard of it. But then they see it and they love it! I researched vehicles in this segment obsessively, while I waited for the Cash for Clunkers deal to go into effect- I had been driving a '99 Jeep Cherokee for the past 7 years and when the A/C broke, it was time to go. While I never considered myself into features (the Jeep had hardly any), I am amazed at how many features I got on the Outlander for the price. Far better deal than any of the competitors. After 2 months of driving I can proudly say that I have absolutely no buyer's remorse. Love it!
