4WD Gas saver lot of fun

Great gas saver, lot of gadgets (bluetooth, handsfree, satellite radio). 5 speed manual gearbox when I need it, nobody else has it. 4WD real not a "awd". Best car I have owned and the best warranty. great power for a 4 cylinder car. Looks great out and inside. third row when I need it. everything on this car is great. Had mitsubishi all my life( montero, montero sport, mirage and the old pickups).

I have driven a Mitsubishi Outlander for years and travel in my job. The vehicle has been great to drive and comes with all the bells and whistles you want in a suv. It’s not a fancy drive and isn’t as nice looking as many suvs but it does the job. That’s what I want. I have over 300000 Kms on it and only now it’s having some problems. I also like the fact you can switch it out and in to 4wd. It’s hard on gas with the 4wd but I only use it in the winter with Ivey or snowy conditions.

Fraudulent fuel mpg claims

I bought this car because I read it was the most fuel-efficient seven seater vehicle. I normally get 17-20 mpg. My biggest gripe is the poor design of fuel economy computer which automatically erases the average after car is turned off for 6 hour+.
