What’s new
The Montero LS gets a more powerful V6 that offers a 26-horsepower boost over last year's marginal 151-horsepower rating. Towing capacity increases to 5,000 pounds for all models. Tricky electronic shock absorbers return to the Montero SR's standard equipment list, letting drivers choose between soft, medium or hard setting depending on their preferences.

1995 Mitsubishi Montero SR 4dr SUV 4WD
Purchased my Montero new 13 years ago - have 210,000 miles on it now and have driven it all over the western states from New Mexico and Colorado to Canada and Alaska and I love this SUV. There is not another vehicle that can get to all the rivers that I like to fish. And I know, I own an auto repair business and have looked for a vehicle to replace this one and can't find it. My wife … drives a '99 Land Cruiser that we like, but it isn't as good at getting into the remote country. Have had normal problems with parts (antenna, timing belt, etc.) but the entire drive train is original and still working great. LS model with 3.0 is underpowered but SR with 3.5 DOHC provides decent power.

I've only owned my 95 Montero for a year and have been quite satisfied.
I really appreciated the roomy interior, the fold up rear seats, and the low-end torque.
It climbed steep muddy hills like crazy.
It was bit top heavy so you didn't want to get too sideways with it but it definitely earned its keep off-road.
I put on a new timing belt, new alternator (fouled from leaking oil, I … think), fixed the oil leaks at the cam seal and put on some beautiful 31x10.5 Bighorns.
Very nice, looked sharp, and did what I asked it to do.
Just sold it this last week because of fuel prices.
Sorry to see the 14-15 mpg in town.
18-19 on the highway was okay.
At $4/gal. it was tough to justify.
