  The Little SUV That Could! - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Montero Limited 4 WD - March 30 - 5:33 pm

  We bought our Mitsubishi Montero Sport new, and it was love at first sight! Its my prissy looking SUV with a work horse engine. I routinely run up and down the Sierra Nevadas to Tahoe and it takes on anything thrown at it. It feels rock solid in the worst snow and ice conditons due to a well made 4WD. It keeps its blissful cool in the warmest summers with its fleible climate control. The huge sunroof lets the stars in at night. I hauled 6 (SIX!) middle school boys in a carpool for 3 years, with 2 in the jump seat. Now that is head room. The dual linkage allows you to control gearshifting making small work of big grades(and V8s!). It fits surfboards to kayaks, kids, dogs and parrots, this SUV thrives under family demands.

  Find reliable independant service shop for seals and timing belt service. Dealer in BR is worse than terrible!

  Like It, but Wouldnt Buy One Again - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Dan - August 30 - 1:10 pm

  I traded in my Jeep Grand Cherokee for the Montero because I wanted something bigger that is good in the snow. Overall, I wish I hadnt. The Montero gets good gas mileage and seems to be reliable so far (I have under 70,000 miles). It has an awful turning radius, the A/C doesnt work and this winter my 4WD stopped working when I needed it most. However, I havent put money into it and its very roomy, which is great for trips with lots of luggage. Also, it doesnt hold its value. I like it, but Id go with a Jeep next time.

  Great Truck - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By mitsuman - July 3 - 4:46 am

  This is a great truck for me. I only wish it had a better payload ability. It doesnt like anything over 500 lbs in the back. Looks tough, but bottoms out easy. Gas mileage is 18.5 in city! and 22 highway. Always has very even tire wear. Tracks like a train.

  New to me, LOVE IT - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By SarahM - June 3 - 4:06 am

  I just got this SUV after my old station wagon topped the 230,000 mile mark. I was looking for three things: Japanese make, four wheel drive, and lots of cargo room. This car was available for the right price in my area, and only had 55,000 miles on it and one previous owner. It has now become my favorite car ever. It looks great, performs well, and my brother, a professional mechanic, said that it is in amazing shape for a vehicle of its age. It is probably underpowered for towing, but thats not what I wanted it for. It has about the same pickup as my old 4 cylinder Outback, but with the increased size of the car and the 6 cylinder standard, Id say thats pretty good.

  GEAR UP!! - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Private Eye - December 26 - 10:00 am

  A great looking SUV with dependability. The acceleration factor is not the best with an automatic transmission, (an additional gear may help that). Gas mileage needs improvement (an additional gear may help that also). The 3.0L GPM is disappointing. The GPM in my Chevy Truck is better.

  mitsu-review - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By chris - June 27 - 5:23 pm

  3.5liter engine has good power and acceleration. Very dependable; no problems at all up to 52k. Room in the front seats is fine for my wife who is 56" but for me --6 ft it is a little cramped on long distance driving.

  Good SUV+ - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By XAVIX - December 23 - 8:43 pm

  I definitely recommend this car to anyone my baby has 112,000 still going strong, the only bad thing is the space if you are big its not very spacious, this is the best SUV for trips and snow

  B plus SUV - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By OOA - July 12 - 10:00 am

  Body is very stylish. I prefer the look from behind than from the front. Manufacturer should take a queue from early 90s Montero. Interior could use a bit more styling (too Plain). great engine. very reliable.
