After 2 months of shopping around - 2002 Mitsubishi Montero
By Dennis - May 4 - 2:00 amVery nice interior. Excellent paint job ( I got a blue montero Ltd.). Huge sunroof. Very comfy front seats. Feets in my garage ( same size as wifes Nissan Maxima) Good sound system. Foog lights work realy good. Good visability. 0-0-0 financing for a year have sealed my deal. I have bought it for $300 over invoice after 2 weeks of negotiating ( however paid $500 for running boards) Good acceleration for SUV (you dont expect it to accelerate like a spots car ... do you?) One more thing - you dont see it on every corner like some of the "cute looking SUVs".

2002 Mitsubishi Montero - 2002 Mitsubishi Montero
By lfp - February 28 - 3:26 amThis vehicle is much bigger and alot nicer than the 95 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited that I traded in. It has a unibody frame, just like the Jeep,but the interior is roomier and I like the rear seats that are fold-away. I just cant say enough about this vehicle, its fun to drive, luxurious and the exterior body is an eye catcher. It just needs a beefier V6 engine or a V8. But overall I am very satisfied with my purchase and the 0% interest rate is an added bonus.

Bimmer and Benz Buyers missed out big - 2002 Mitsubishi Montero
By Prince - February 28 - 2:00 amI waited on this vehicle and it was worth it. My brother-in-law has a Discovery and my brother has a Navigator, both wish they had gotten to the Montero before I did. This is a smooth, capable SUV. I would like to dispute the critics that say it doesnt handle well. If you want to whip around curves and do slalom testing, get a Porsche, leave the Montero to those of us who were looking for a luxury SUV, with distinct styling and superior appointments. And relative to the useless third row. I use it often. True, I have smaller children. But if I wanted a bus I would have bought an Econline.

I love my Montero!! - 2002 Mitsubishi Montero
By Mary - February 12 - 10:40 amGas mileage is bound to be an issue with a vehicle this size, so I accept that. I was shopping for yet another minivan when I spotted this beauty at the dealership. I told the salesman,"If this comes with a third seat, Ill take it." Magically a third seat was produced from out of the floor! I piled all my kids inside and drove around town. I was instantly hooked. Ive never had a vehicle that I loved like this: reliable, trouble-free, beautiful, rugged, and accommodating. You cant go wrong!

The Best SUV for the money!!! - 2002 Mitsubishi Montero

Test drive - 2002 Mitsubishi Montero
By Leod - February 3 - 10:00 amI just got the Limited for the test drive. I like the way the vehicle looks, but I expected the interior quality to be a little bit better, especially the plastics and the switches on the front doors. I would prefer the spare tire to be stored somewhere else, because it makes the vehicle look a bit too long. The driving was good, acceleration and handling was sufficient. For me this vehicle is a little to big, but at the other hand the gas milage is comparable to my Grand Cherokee with I6 engine.
