What kind of engine does a Montero have?
Gen 2 Monteros had a 3.0-liter V6, a 3.5 DOHC and a 3.5 SOHC for its last three model years. Any gen 2 is decent but the final run, the 1998 to 2000 ones known colloquially as “Gen 2.5,” are the most desirable.
Is the Mitsubishi Montero a good long hauler?
Short wheelbase versions are great for scampering off-road, the full four-doors are good long haulers. The biggest drawbacks would be a lack of refinement and power. If you’re coming out of a modern vehicle, it might be hard to find the patience for a road trip in one of these.
What kind of suspension does a Mitsubishi Montero have?
Like its predecessor, the Gen 2 Montero is a traditional body-on-frame SUV with coil suspension in the back and torsion bars up front (Correction: I originally wrote it was coils all around!), as opposed to stiff and sloppy leaf springs like some other truck-ish people-movers (suck it, Jeep) had at the time.
When did the second generation Montero come out?
The second-generation Montero, which was around from about ’92 to 2000, is my personal favorite with its fantastic off-road architecture and passable highway manners, that make it suited for both going to a trailhead and scrambling over rocks.
Where can I run the Great Aloha Run?
This year we’re going virtual, and you can choose your day and location as you see fit. You’ll have 3 days to walk, jog, or run your 1.5 miles or 3.0 miles – the equivalent of a good workout at Ala Moana Beach Park. This is a virtual race, so you can run anywhere that’s convenient for you.
