One of the worst cars I've owned

Where do I start. It leaks: windshield, side windows, headlights are full of water. Tail-lights keep blowing, I'm told its the electrical system. Windshield wipers stop in the up position. Air-conditioning stopped working. exterior trim has fallen off. Auto-side mirrors don't work. I'm the only owner of this car and my kids say I drive like an old lady and I do a mix of highway and suburban driving - so I don't think it's me. I've kept up with regular maintenance but the cost of fixing this stuff again and again is becoming quite a burden

I tested alot of Minivans and I cant say that this was my first choice but I am happy that I bought it. This is the only van that still felt like driving a car. I also like the rugged look. The Honda was #1 but the mark up just wasnt worth it to me. The 0% financing on the Montana didnt hurt. The van has run great and after all the reviews I read about the lack of engine power....I'm content and believe that its more than adequate. Get the extended warranty for peace of mind!

We got the Thunder package along with all the bells an whistles. I didn't intend to spend quite as much as we did but 0% interest allowed us to get everything we wanted. The seats are comfortable except the arm rest could be wider. The kids love the DVD player and they no longer feel "stuck" in their car seats for the trip to grandmas'. The ride is very smooth but we were driving a Blazer so the change is more noticable. Almost bought a MPV but the seats were not as comfortable and we thought the extra space in the Montana could come in handy in certain situations. I think we will keep this van for a long time.

Excellent Van With A Lot Of Space

I have six foster children and the 8 passenger seating arrangement is wonderful. The seats are very easy to fold and flip up and even easier to remove and re-install. I have the extended wheelbase model and the room behind the folding rear seat is excellent. This van is well laid out and thoughfully designed for a busy family on the road. I would recommend it to anyone who needs a lot of room and 8 passenger seating.

Montana Taxi

I bought the Pontiac Montana Ext. AWD used back in Feb of 07 with 52,345 mi and using it as a taxi. I've had great luck with the Montana and never had any major problems with it except normal ware and tear. It runs constantly for 24 hous a day. It now has 159,789 mi on it and runs like brand new. It has plenty of room and is very very comfortable for seating of 6. The AWD system is exceptional.It goes through anything. If anyone needs to by a mini van, this is the one to buy! I would buy another one in a heartbeat with no question.
