This Year's Model Updates:

Although the Endeavor is an all-new vehicle for 2004, an upgraded 2004.5 model was released midway through the year to address some initial shortcomings. The list of upgrades includes more horsepower (225), daytime running lamps, advanced dual-stage front airbags and a tire-pressure monitor as standard. An improved ABS system (with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution and traction control) is now available on LS 2WD models and standard on XLS 2WD and Limited 2WD. A full-size spare with alloy wheel and a towing prep package is now standard on LS AWD (optional LS 2WD) and XLS. Standard side-impact airbags for front-seat passengers have been added to the Endeavor XLS. Rounding out the 2004.5 changes are a handful of new options, including a rear-seat DVD entertainment system for XLS and Limited, and traction and stability control for the Limited AWD.

Pros:
  • Carlike ride, roomy seating front and rear, torquey V6 power plant, solid build and materials quality, good crash test scores.
Cons:
  • Less cargo capacity than the class leaders, polarizing interior design.

  • Love at First Sight - 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I had no idea what I was going to purchase, so I looked at around 50 different makes and models (Audi to Toyota), but the Mitsubishi Endeavor LTD AWD kept calling me back. I couldnt believe the comfort and performanace. The Honda Pilot and Toyota Hylander were Spartan by comparison. I also liked that it was designed and assembled in the USA. Everyone who has seen it says "WOW".

  • Awesome Ride - 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor

    I rented this SUV for a camping trip this weekend. Awesome! I didnt want to trade it in and now my wife wants to buy one. Neat dash at night, great sound, lots of room. Feels very safe. However, hard to judge front of car when parking. I love it! (got it in black by the way...nice color)

  • Excellent Value for the Money - 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I purchased this vehicle for my wife 2 weeks ago and after driving it a few times I have noticed the great value that you get around for mid $22K with incentives and invoice pricing. It drives like a car and have features which are considered extras in competing models. It feels very solid and stable in highway cruising. Interior design blends in a contemporary pattern.

    We have been very pleased so far with our endeavor.It seems to be well made and is very comfortable on the road.We had a minor problem with the fuel injection right off the bat and the dealer could not have been better.Everything fine since.It really does handle like a car and less like an SUV.You feel attached to the road.

  • LOVE IT - 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    Im enjoying my purchase. This drives like a car, handles well and is unique on the road of the usual SUVs. Its roomy inside and has side airbags and the DVD keeps the kids quiet on long drives. CD system is great. I truly recommend you test drive this one. Was NOT overly impressed with the dealership after purchase.

  • An Attention Grabber - 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I like the look of my 2004 Endeavor XLS. It has more head and leg room than my 2001 Montero Sport. It handles well on the highway and in the rain. The only thing that I miss that I do not have is the birds-eye view I had with my Montero Sport. I wish that they would add a little more height to it.

  • Never a problem in 5 years - 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I cant say enough about how happy we are with this vehicle. 5 years and 57,000 miles and only new brakes and tires! I have noticed some reviewers posting they had to use premium gas, but we have always used regular with NO issue. The car is fun to drive, comfortable, and over all a great value for the money. We have averaged an easy 21 miles per gallon in mixed driving conditions. There is a very large amount of space with the seats down to place items, pretty close to a mini-van in interior space. I use it to hall audio equipment around with no issue.

  • Drives like a car.... - 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    Ive owned a Ford Explorer and a Jeep Grand Cherokee and really liked them both; however, this is a different kind of SUV. It drives soooooo much nicer than the SUVs designed for off roading. This car is simply a blast to drive. You can push it hard into turns, it brakes great and the transmission is great for curvy roads. If you want a SUV that drives great-- this is it. If you want an SUV that is great off-roading--buy something else

    Wasnt sure about buying Japenese but I am loving the Endeavor. Traded in an explorer and this rides and handles 100% better. Had good luck with Fords and hope I do with the Endeavor.
