Mitusbishi makes very solid vehicles. My Kenyan president (who was raised 3 doors down from Barack Hussein Obama, Sr.) says that they were just about the only cars that could survive the roads in Kenya.
Mine is 18 years old, and nary a squeak or rattle.
I drive a 2001 Diamante. 5 years no interest. Good size. 5 adults can be comfortable. 6 cal gets up the hills and mountains quickly.
Put a transmission in about 2 years ago.
241,000 miles.
Parked in the garage paint looks good, dash board in great shape. I use sun screens in my cars.
Routine maintenance.
Like it very much.
