Just had a question for ALL of our Montero/Pajero owners.
After reading one offroad magazine after another, I've never seen anything with a Mitsubishi badge. Never, in any offroad competion, or endurance contest. I understand that they are not as popular as Jeep, Toyota, or Land Rover. But we do have many very capable Mitsubishi's all over the world.
Just wondering if some of you guys with rigged up Monteros/Pajeros could send some shots of your rides to some of the magazines. It would be nice to see a Mitsubishi every once in a while. Well, I can go on forever on this one, but I'll leave it at that. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

When was that write up? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />It's just sad to see 2wd trucks and NO 4wd Montero's. No disrespect to anyone but COME ON.

two monteros in ORA Mag we eventually made it into their magazine, long story behind that one. I submitted my write up a few times, never got put in, then I wrote a nasty letter to them letting them know how I feel. I finally pissed them off enough to get put in their magazine. the white one is angelo's and the green one is my LS

ya know, if you want to get in some mags, a bunch of us could submit pics all at the same time. like coordinate it on here and then all at once send them in. My red SR hasn't been submitted yet, I could send that along with whoever else wants to send their's in. just a thought.
