This Year's Model Updates:

Following on the heels of a significant midyear refresh for 2004, there are few new features for this year. Side airbags are now standard on all models, and an anti-theft system is included on the XLS.

Pros:
  • Rides like a car, roomy seating, torquey V6 power plant, solid build and materials quality, good crash test scores.
Cons:
  • Less cargo capacity than the class leaders, polarizing interior design, no third-row seat available.

  • best ever - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    Handles like a car, and has all the comfort of a luxury vehicle. Love the visibility. A pleasure to drive, and the AWD is 100% reliable in any weather.

  • Blind spot - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    Only one draw back, between the windshield corners and the front doors, thereis a blind spot that you have to get use to and physically adjust to compensate. Other then that, it is a very well built vehicle. I would recomend the Endeaver to my friends and familly.

  • BEST VEHICLE EVER PURCHASED - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I have owned my 2005 Endeavor for approximately 5 years now. I first thought it was a jeep from viewing from the street. i went to the car lot and was surprised it was not a jeep. I took it for a test drive up and down hills. It was a smooth ride and was easy to handle. I have purchased many cars in my life and found this one to be easy on maintenance only needing regular oil change.

  • Great Reliable SUV for Smart Shoppers - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    No complaints - I am a Honda fan all the way but since I test drove this SUV to now I love it - smart buy over the Toyota Highlander all day long and the Honda Pilot if you do not need the third row seat. Test drive and you will see!

  • Amazing - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    My family and I were in a terrible accident back in June and our Subaru Forester was totaled, which by the way was an excellent vehicle, and kept us very safe in the time of the accident as we all came out with no injuries....however the car wasnt the prettiest sight...we then shopped around for the next amazing car and as always and should be, safety was our #1 priority...we came across the Mitsubishi Endeavor and we knew from then on out that it was the one for us. This SUV is absolutely amazing..its so powerful and handles so well...I love driving it and I fall more in love with this vehicle every day that I drive it...it has an amazing stereo/sound system, unlike any other...this car truely is a joy.

  • Awesome - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    It has been an excellent vehicle overall. I would diffently buy again. I have not had one single problem with any part of the Endeavor. I love everything about it. Mitsubishi has hit a home run in my ballpark, I will definitly be a Mitsubishi owner for life.

  • Good crossover for the price - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    We bought our Endeavor a year and a half ago and have put 25K miles since then. We have been pretty happy with it so far. It has a lot of cargo space in the back and the seats are easy to fold down to create even more. I love the power this vehicle has and the transmission is very responsive. The transmission does make a wining noise in warmer weather. This is a known issue with them - cant be fixed, so I deal with it. It is very comfortable on long trips. I question its durability, though. The interior is very cheap. The fabric, although comfortable, is already showing significant wear. The dash and doors are mostly brittle plastic and the sunroof seals arent sealing.

  • Great Experience - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I have had my Endeavor for 5 1/2 years now and at 95,000 miles had my first problem--not even a new car bug. (have kept all service, minor and major up to date). Just had to have propeller shaft and bearing assembly replaced due to bad bearings. But fully covered by 100,000 Mile powertrain warranty. Feel great this is the only issue in 95K miles!

  • Best car I have ever owned! - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I am a teacher and cant afford a luxury SUV. I purchased this XLS Endeavor because it offered the most luxury and power in my price range. I couldnt be happier! This is the best vehicle I have ever owned. I owned a Tahoe prior to this and that was a great SUV but wasnt as reliable as I had hoped and it really ate gas. I love this SUV, and I hope to own my Endeavor for a very long time. The warranty is amazing, it looks great and runs even better! I would highly reccomend this vehicle!

  • Handles like a car - 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    The Mitsubishi Endeavor is much better than the discontinued Montero Sport. It handles well, and the alternative dual transmission is fun to drive and play with.
