  So Far so good - 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6
  By cubsfan53 - March 30 - 2:03 pm

  Just purchased an 06 Montana with 46,000 miles. Took it up to northern Michigan, it averaged 24 mpg. The seats had some of the "water spots" mentioned in other reviews, used Tuff Stuff spray cleaner on them, and they look good. Lots of nice interior features. Hoping for the best!

  Disappointed - 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6
  By clatimri - January 27 - 4:30 am

  I really thought this would be a great family vehicle. I bought it used with only 9000 miles on it.The front end needed many things replaced. The ride....very rough in the driver seat. Rode in the back with children, it was the most uncomfortable seat I ever sat in. The bucket seats..cheap..material leaves terrible ring stains from even water....those seats were uncomfortable too. The rode noise was horrible. We always had to turn radio up or dvd player up louder to hear it. I have always been a dedicated gm buyer..........no more pontiac vehicles for me.

  updated SV6 review - 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6
  By mogravedigger - January 14 - 4:19 am

  first posted review in 2009 of our 2006 Miontanna SV6. dont know of we got a good one or what, so many negative reviews. Our 2006 now had 110,000 miles on it. with no problems at all. yes it does have stains on the seats, yes they are hard to get out totally, but hey grandkids are messy and what fabric does not stain.Scotch guard helps but hey I can live with it. but come on people this is nitpicking. Our van has vever let us down and other then routine maintence oil changed at 4,000 miles (oil is cheap people change it often) brakes replaced rotors were fine 2 transmission fluid changes and 4 sets of tires this vehicle has not been in shop since awd sensor replaced under warranty. .

  Montana SV6 - 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6
  By David Battistel - September 7 - 1:26 am

  We really didnt want to purchase a minivan, but it was really our only option based on our space requirements. I will only buy GM products, so the SV6 was a natural choice. I was not too keen on it at first (I would have rather had an SUV), but it has grown on me since. I really enjoy driving it (not as much as my Sierra though) and I am impressed with the overall package. If it turns out to be as great as my truck, I will be very happy.

  Very Fuel Efficient - 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6
  By Superior Quality - July 27 - 3:33 am

  I did a combine city/Hwy fuel economy of this van and it is extremely good. 12.1L/100KM. I am not sure what the manufacturer rating is but that is my real mileage experience. Performance is great with lost of power on hwy and uphill. Plenty of cargo space and leg room (spacious).

  Premium Quality Van - 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6
  By Best Van in town - July 20 - 5:43 am

  I have test out many different vans. This is the best I have seen both in quality, value and features. I had bad experience with Caravan and Sienna. Caravan had transmission problem and Sienna broke down after 2 years. Both are EXTREMELY POOR in quality.

  great family hauler - 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6
  By aarmchair - June 18 - 9:50 pm

  Great for hauling 2 kids and a dog around. Comfortable on the highway, but wish we had the bigger engine, it sometimes struggles up hills with a full load. On the 4 lane highways cruises along nicely. The kids love the DVD player, and we love the headphones for them so we can listen to what we want. The back-up alarm is awesome for city parking. A well recommended vehicle. Dual sliding doors are essential with 2 kids. Kids love being high up so that they can see out. Cargo tray in back is somewhat cumbersome. If you are looking a a mini-van this is the way to go from a price and perfomance standpoint, especially when you compare how much cheaper it is then an equivilant japanese moedels

  Never Again - 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6
  By Never Again - September 21 - 6:26 am

  Waterstained seats. rust-stained exterior paint. crappy tires, shocks replaced, brakes replace, load sensor blown, transmission shot all under 55K miles. I have brought this back to the dealer so many times it is ridiculous! I bought a new car/van so I wouldnt have mechanic bills - and, the bills keep mounting. There is no excuse for the lousy fabric they use for interiors; they know its an issue and no one cares. ALL DONE BUYING GM PRODUCTS. NEVER AGAIN!!

  Montana SV6 3.9 L GREAT VAN! - 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6
  By Mom, Dad & 2 teens - August 31 - 9:06 pm

  The 3.9 L engine is real peppy. I had a 2000 Montana with a 3.4 L engine that had the Dexcool leak problem. Still it lasted me 138,000 miles before being totaled in an accident. Had to have my Montana Van back, so I chose the SV6. Teens love the DVD & wireless headphones. I love the remote start. This Van offers a lot of features for a good price.
