Reliable, easy to maintain, great off road.

For what they are designed to do, they do very well. Great off road or in the snow. Fairly easy to work on - very reliable. I get 25 MPG no matter how it's driven - 65 mph on the highway, in town driving, or 2nd gear on bad roads.  Only negative is the small gas tank. There are some known issues with the EGR system, but, even at 100k miles, mine doesn't have the issue.  I added a modest (2") suspension lift and Old Man Emu shocks/struts - made a world of difference on washboard roads. I replaced the alternator and oil pressure sending unit @97k. Other than routine maintenance, (oil changes, tune ups and timing belt/water pump), I haven't had to repair anything.  Interior holds up well. Exterior - - clear coat is slowing peeling away (common for cars this age) - gives it the camo look.  Overall, a very simple, reliable car - great off road, good value.

Very good truck for on and off the road. The 4.0 L engine is powerful enough and works pretty well for more than 200K miles with basic maintenance. One of the points that need more attention is the engine cooling system, it requires maintenance in order to have every of its parts in good condition (radiator, thermostat, electric fan, and electric switch)...

We absolutely LOVE our Outlander GT. When we purchased it, it been used by the dealer's wife as a daily driver so it had a little over 10,000 miles on it at the time of purchase. The dealer gave us the 10 year, 100,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty. This past winter we got over a foot of snow here in Portland and the city came to a complete standstill. I had installed dedicated snow tires the prior weekend and i had no trouble what so ever in the snow. I was a taxi service for my place of work, driving all over the place picking stranded co-workers. The Outlander just went, no problems, even up rather steep snow covered hills. Most of the time I used the "SNOW" setting and a couple of times (Those steep hills) I used the "LOCK" setting which is full time 4WD. No problems. We have also taken the car on a long road trip this past fall and as I'm 6'4", leg room is an issue for me. I was comfortable for the entire trip with no problems. The car got good gas milage even though we had it loaded to the gills with all of our camping and fishing gear. I would highly recommend the Mitsubishi over a RAV 4, or a CR-V, both of which I have driven and they just do not compare! The picture is when we went to Hat Point, the highest point above Hells Canyon on the Oregon side. 25 miles of gravel roads, all up hill to the top and all downhill to the bottom. I used the paddle shifters on the way down so that I could downshift from 3 to 2 when a corner came up and saved the breaks. I could go on and on but you get the idea....

Ive owned my TT since 08.  I use this car as my sunny day ride.  I keep the mileage down and find it to not only be a fun ride that handles great but also a head turner. The maintenance isn't a big cost, in fact it rarely goes to the shop.  Its a fun ride but at 17 years old, certainly not a daily driver.

Have had my 2014 Honda Accord EX-L for three years, 28,000 miles and three oil changes. That's it!  Zero mechanical problems.  Has been an extremely reliable automobile.  Comfortable, nice-looking and great gas mileage (40+ MPG highway)  The CVT works well.  No loud downshifts while climbing hills.  Doesn't have all the safety elements of the latest models, but the pre-collision warning is a nice feature.  The cabin is roomy and quiet.  No rattles.  The radio touch screen could be a little more sensitive but we enjoy the satellite feature.  Perhaps not the most exciting car but certainly more than adequate.

Can't say much for the Weather Tech custom floor mats I purchased for the car though. Would have had to cut out portion of front mat around gas cap cover release lever in order to fit properly.  Returned them.

I bought the first one about 2 yrs ago. I live in Florida but spend a lot of time camping in the mountains.  The 24 speeds are great for the hills. No serious off road stuff though, just slow trail rides.  I love the dual suspension when off road.  It smooths out the bumps over roots and holes.  I bought this one for my wife.  I've modified both of them for an upright riding position.  The stock position is bent over with a lot of your weight on the handlebars.  I installed a Delta Alloy Bicycle Stem Raiser and a Zoom 25.4mm Adjustable Stem to raise the handle bars.  It may not be a serious off road bike but for my needs it is perfect for the price.

The funny thing about these early-2000s Rangers with the 2.5 litre engines is how ridiculously reliable they are.  I bought mine used at 85k miles for $5k and sold it 50k miles later for about $4k.  Other than timing and plugs at their recommended intervals, maintenance was fluids and filters only--nothing ever broke, period.  It was cheaper to maintain than my wife's legendary second-generation CR/V and my roommate's Accord.

They don't depreciate, they don't quit, and they're tough as nails.  And they're way cheaper than the equivalent Tacoma or Frontier.  The only reason I got rid of mine was a need for passenger space and lack of parking at home (otherwise I'd have put another 100k on it easily).  Too bad Ford killed off the Ranger in the US market...

One of the best vehicles I have ever owned.  I am the third owner and, fortunately, the two previous owners took excellent care of her.  I have only had her 18 months, but she still performs perfectly.  She rides well, love it on long trips, and I cannot say enough about all the creature comforts!

I have had this forester for 15 years since it was new.  Almost no problems ever and more than 169,000 miles
There have only two times with maintenance problems and it still drives like a new car.

Good for all kinds of road conditions including gravel roads with cross ditches and the highway.  This is the one we take skiing and camping.

I bought mine from a large dealership in November of 2015
It only had 32,000 miles on it. Everything works right on it. It goes like a tank in the snow even with summer tires on it with only 50% tread. There are a ton of accessory options for it. Even a snow blade attachment if you like. Really I only have two gripes with it. The first, it rides like a Wrangler (kidney buster off road) and the second is the "updated" look. It's a box on wheels.  Overall: "it ain't pretty but it's got teeth".

Solid off road performance. Reliable engine. Decent ride on secondary roads. Not so much on the interstate.  Not the best gas mileage.

I bought it with 83000 miles on it and it now has over 107000 on the odometer. It Still runs great and the ride is fantastic. I have over loaded it many times with concrete and stone plus metal at times and I see no change in the ride or drive train. These are very tough vehicles with several amenities I appreciate. I'll be keeping this one for a long time to come.

We love it! Have had it since it was new and have not had one issue with it. Nothing beats cruising down country roads or exploring trails with the top off.

I have been generally satisfied with this truck.  It rides very well and the four wheel drive has been very stable in low tractions situations.  I use it to pull a fifth wheel trailer and it works well for that as well.  Very smooth running engine and drive train.  I only have 80k miles on the truck so it should operate well.  I am retired so don't expect to replace this vehicle.  Mine is a quad cab and I have had occasion to ride in the back seat.  Not very comfortable, but our dog doesn't complain.
Items on my list of complaints would include the gas mileage of only 13mpg at best.  Tune ups are more costly because it has two plugs per cylinder for some unknown reason. (emissions?)  Drivers side door doesn't fit tight at the top so can be very noisy in side winds.

This motor has been very reliable. I've used it for about 3 years now on my 16' Fiberglass Boat. It gives me pretty good speed at full-throttle when crossing a lake or fighting wind; Great for trolling at about half throttle. I use it with an AGM battery that I got at Cabela's. I did some research before buying it, between the motor and the battery I got it supposedly will go about 10 hours at half-throttle. I've never run it that long continuously however I have taken it a couple times for 8+ hours and trolled between fishing holes all day. I've never had it run my battery down enough to see a noticeable decrease in performance. It handles weeds pretty well. It can get bogged down or stop in heavier weeds. I usually try to avoid those but if I need to I raise the prop up just below the surface to avoid tangling up in the bulk of the weeds.

Very fuel efficient, reliable, and fun car to drive. Easy to maintain, stylish, and one of a kind.

I loved my Saab. It was reasonably engaging to drive, and other than routine maintenance items, was quite dependable. The car still felt very solid even for it's age and it never let me down. Had it not been for three deer running into it one winter evening, I'd most likely still own it and be driving it.
