All this is too much, but I see the claim that mitsu is more reliable than jeep.

I don't think it's fair to compare brands, as everyone has a dud and a masterpiece.

I dont agree. Both my work cherokees were far more reliable than my montero. If it wasn't for the desire to have a unique car and no need for a reliable work truck, I'd have jumped the montero ship years ago.

I also don't think it's fair to argue that the percentage of wranglers still on the road is an indication of reliability. Its an impractical little truck, so people might be more inclined to junk it over a small repair while a 4door montero is more practical and worth fixing. Too many factors.

88 Montero, StarQuest turbo, Kormex 5speed +tuff-pan w/phoenix f. stage2 clutch, 4in lift+33' tires, 4.875 lsd, short-throw shifter, Aisin hubs, SR big brakes, gen2 uca's, elantra alt, and so much more... 16g turbo w/hardpipes + 4.90 locking disk-brake axle soon (maybe lsd or aussie front??)
