 The Mitsubishi Montero is one of the best SUVs out there.  Mine is a two wheel drive XLS model.  I go trail riding a lot and the driving comfort of it is outstanding.  Even on gravel roads the suspention is amazingly smooth for a seven year old SUV.  It can handle most anything you can throw at it as long as it isn't too messy.  The only thing I would trade it in on would have to be another one but with 4WD.
