I also forgot to mention... I drive/ride an enduro motorcycle around town to keep the miles off my vehicles for most short little stints around town. Keep maintenance/gas down. I love it.

I have to say, out of the 16 vehicles I have owned so far, this montero is one of the most comfortable rides yet... it is even trumping the Audi Allroad. Maybe it is the bouncy seat, I have no idea. It is smooth though. I have only taken in out on 2 trips so far, Prescott and workman falls. It seems pretty solid.

AstroVan replaced my westfalia and it is FAIL. The interior is garbage. I took it to Fossil Creek and the washboard nearly rattled the interior to pieces... and that is after I've replaced the entire suspension/shocks, added AT's and gave it a 2" lift... POS.
