I agree. I'm afraid that we'll have to spend some money to replace these big Montero's. About the only thing that's comparable is the Lexus GX 470, quality wise, in my opinion. They are about the same size, a real frame underneath, with the frame rails enclosed, two speed transfer case. Its expensive though, expect to spend $48-$54k new. Best thing is it kinda looks like a Montero with a V8. Which would have been cool if you could have been able to get a montero with a small block V8.
Don't know why mitsubishi went to a unibody, its like they wanted to kill it off. Even nissan realized its unibody mistake and went to putting a real frame under the pathfinders again. They're just stronger with a frame.

Changed the oil in my montero yesterday. Went ahead and put in the new air filter for the year. Runs like a champ.

What type Power steering fluid does everyone use? I thought about changing mine out and put in Valvoline maxlife power steering fluid in it. Is that OK? I havn't yet.
let me know
thanks in advance
