A friend of mine had a loaded 2005 model. Its was quite a comfortable vehicle and he didn’t have any trouble with it. He sold it circa 2010, but took a bath in regard to depreciation.
My friend got one of those when Mitsubishi was doing that 0 down subprime stuff. I had a Mazda at the time. I thought it was a nice ride. Came over one day and it wasnt there. Never "knew" why at the time. (Bank repo) Always had a love for Mitsubishi but i think approving everyone killed their reputation.
I mean honestly I think that’s what save them because I think a lot of their cells come from people who benefited from them being generous with credit … people are not busting down doors for Mitsubishi I mean back then they got sales and a lot of them were younger folks
Had Mitsubishi made this a 3 row, slightly larger crossover it would have been a hit. It drove really well and performed well for what it is. People were looking to replace their minivans around this time and the 3 row Highlander and Pilot took all of the wind out of the Endeavors sail.
Totally agree. I never understood why Mitsubishi didn't put a third row seat in these. No doubt with that independent rear suspension, they could have made it truly a comfortable family hauler, since it was already a good size SUV.

Crippling depreciation came standard.
I still see plenty of these on the road-surprisingly-with lots of dings and paint issues.
I just came here to say i never see any. I see plenty of Pilots and Highlanders from this era though

Basically a Montero/Pajero.
My family bought a brand new 2005 one and we still have it. It runs pretty good for an almost 20 y/o vehicle
This was a good looking tester
I had a white 2005 Limited, definite upgrade from a 98 Grand Cherokee. Drove it until I traded for a 2013 Lexus GX.
That’s ridiculous, if I want “car like comfort and convenience “I’ll get a car.
I think nobody buy this car at all even if it's a good car
This was a good competitor for the Honda Pilot if they had kept at it.
I hated the way these looked
These were so unsung sadly. Not sure why they didn't keep making these and improve on them.
God, it was hideous then, and now. Its got sid the sloth eyes with the headlights so far apart
