I've actually had older people say snid remarks about anyone who would buy a Mitsubishi product to me. I'm 55 and that doesn't preclude me from inviting them to bite me! That seriously might have had some effect on the sales success that Mitsu has/hasn't had in this country.


Mitsubishi's biggest problem hasn't been their lasting reputation as the manufacturer of the Zero. It's been that they simply don't understand the American car buyer.

The success or lack thereof of the Montero is a glaring illustration of this. Everywhere else that it's sold in the rest of the world, its extremely highly regarded but here in the US, it's that stepchild that consumers never knew mitsubishi had.

I was just talking with a friend here at work and he said point blank that he would have never considered the '01 Montero he owns if I wasn't so gung ho about my Monty. LOL, I think I've created fan cause he's now looking at buying a new EVO <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
