  Liking Montana - 2004 Pontiac Montana
  By clarkb - May 13 - 4:10 am

  I am pretty happy with this van. The DVD package is great. It drives reasonably well. It has good low-end torque, and moves away well from a stop light. It could use more passing power. Fuel Economy is a bit poor, but few minivans are much better. The SV6 has addressed much of this. After driving several vans, incl. the Odessy, Sienna, Freestar, and Town and Country, it is more responsive and refined than the other American entries. Unfortunately, it is worlds behind the Sienna and Odessy. With rebates, it was also $10K less, which more than compensates.

  Great van - 2004 Pontiac Montana
  By apd124 - May 30 - 10:00 am

  This is my second Montana. It is a 2003 currently. Our previous Montana was a 1999 with the same problems as usualy reported (blown head gaskets, manifold gaskets). This was due to Pontiac using the new long life coolent and paper gaskets which the long life coolent rapidly deteriorates. All was replaced under warranty with no problems and the van drove great throughout. They have apparently fixed this problem on the newer years which is great.

  By jaykeller - January 16 - 12:55 am

  I bought my montana with barely any miles on it it was in pristine condition! After having it for five years I hunt, fish, camp, and haul quit a bit with it! I have a one place trailer that my Harley(motorcycle) Skidoo(snowmachine)and polaris(4wheeler) all fit on nicely (one at a time that is) and i dont even know they are there i make 1600 plus mile long trips in the thing in Ak witch isnt known for its nice flat hyws if you know what i mean.Then I slap the seats back in it and its my olladys soccer mom wagon! I have had to replace a few things on it but mostly because of operator err like I said I am very hard on things and yet this mini van seems to keep right up with me! I Love Mine!

  Still Liking It - 2004 Pontiac Montana
  By Evie - February 20 - 9:43 am

  Never had any mechanical issues at all. Good on mileage as driven on long trips frequently. Longest trip I drove in this van was over 7000 km and never had issues with weight of luggage and tenting supplies packed in the back. Am very satisfied with my vehicle so far. Wished it didnt have such a limited load weight for pulling a camper trailer. Leaves little choice as to what type of camper trailer to pull as max towing without the optional towing package for 2 adults and gear is 2000 lbs.

  Pontiac Mini/van (Canada) - 2004 Pontiac Montana
  By modencan - December 19 - 10:00 am

  This is my second pontiac Montana. The last one I had was a 2000. This doesnt seem to get the mileage of the 2000. The 2003, also seem to have been shorted on storage space in the vehicle. The 2000 had cargo nets, pockets in back of the front seats as well as bigger slots in the dash to put items and paper.

  Great room, BAD WIPERS - 2004 Pontiac Montana
  By mashbs - November 5 - 2:00 am

  I have owned my Montana for 3 years now, and each winter I have to take it in to get the wipers fixed. The wipers tend to freeze and then stick down in the compartment, then wiper motor gets blown when you turn on the wipers.

  Decent vehicle - 2004 Pontiac Montana
  By John Wiltfong Jr - March 1 - 5:43 pm

  Leased the van with 6 miles showing on the odometer and now currently have 46,500. On long trips, it is comfortable but lacks power when I am driving over the mountains into NC.
