Whoever named this thing cracks me up. “Our two biggest competitors are the Outback and the Highlander… let’s call it the Outlander!”
based
Itll bring out the woman...in you
Next model will be the Highback
This isn't competition for the Highlander.
Every time I hear the word “Outlander” I think of all the dark elves in Morrowind. They might as well just call it the “N’Wah”
The most unintentionally hilarious moment of this review was when, in the middle of a sentence about how distressingly unremarkable this car is, CZcams inserted a commercial hawking new 2022 Outlanders set to Thunderstruck by AC/DC. End commercial, cut back to the rest of Mr. Regular's thought about how boring this car is.
Thought I was the only one that got that ad.
Same here!

Owned one, nailed the review, mine ended it's borin life after hitting a power pole at 50kph and I was fine so I guess it's safe.
Mitsubishi Outlander - when the most interesting thing about the car is finally getting rid of it from your driveway.
If y'all had the I4 I don't blame y'all, but the older ES with the pre-face lift & the 6B31 V6 was something else. It was fun to me and with a few bolt ons, you could make near 250 wheel which would've been solid for a daily.
Glad you are fine!
For some reason my audio was broken, the video was completely silent. I thought this was supposed to add to it's boring personality.
"DAMMIT I HIT A UTILITY POLE"
I actually like the exterior look of this Outlander. At least Mitsubishi had a cohesively attractive design language between 2007-2012.
Back when Mitsubishi cared about their vehicle line now they care more about their real estate. Mitsubishi stopped being a car manufacturer first and foremost for a couple of years now.
"Mitsubishi had a cohesively attractive design language"
Previously unsaid sentences in human history
Now it's cohesively unattractive
It looks like the RAV4 of the same time and seems like it does the same things - mom vehicle with cramped third row - but apparently the RAV4 can move
@@koushiro86 This looks nothing like a Rav-4.
Tbh this car is pretty alright still and the simplicity is so much nicer compared to the ugly fake vents and massive aggressive front ends Mitsubishi SUV’s have become
Don't forget the rear Diffusor. For the excessive amount of *D O W N F O R C E*
My mother had one as a work car and it was very reliable, but oh it so regular it was pretty much just the old whitegoods on wheels. Which is absolutely fine for people that just need a larger vehicle to lug a lot of crap or people around and don't need to get anywhere fast
Still a step up from the Grand Vitara
No bull, if you look up a current gen Outlander, its like it had a baby with a Kia Soul. I mean, I meant it as a joke but it looks alright I think.
@@krissteel4074 right… my friends got one. They’re literally just made to haul people or shit around. No luxury is needed. No excessive fake material. Just pure utility.
RCR, a reason to actually get up early on Monday. Well, that and my boss likes it when I show up at work.
Always watch rcr during Monday lunch break
Preach...
your boss likes it when you show up? mine seems ambivalent when I do
Yes
Watching RCR during company time is something I will definitely miss when we go back to the office
2011 Mitsubishi Outlander: For the guy that dreams of owning a laundromat
with the “big” dryers
😂😂😂😂
It was a cheap way to carry around the third child, albeit poorly. While still not having the "I drive a minivan" soccer mom stigma. I can't tell you how many people in 2015 tried to order a 4 Runner with a third row from the dealership I worked at only to find A: we couldn't get any and B: they couldn't afford it.
People would spend double the money for a worse third row, just to avoid having to drive a really nice well equipped all wheel drive minivan.... That was half the cost brand new.
The outlander still fills that market roll today by being Cheap, not a minivan, and having a third row seat.
I have always been so confused by that. A good minivan is handy and look pretty decent, why do people fear them so much?
@@rileycannon6789 The current generation responsible for most of the changes to the car market are Gen Xers and ones who are all in need of a family vehicle for a good price. If sociology has anything to say about car markets, it's that there will always be a counter culture and that counter culture has been both against the luxury sedan loving GIs from the 60s and the Boomer Minivan craze in the 70s and early-80s. And that persists onwards even to today where people can understand the better capabilities of a Minivan but would rather prefer driving an SUV because John from Sunday Church may find you odd for driving a vehicle that was stereotypically driven by his mom and your mom...
Families that breed like rabbits, but aren't actually willing to go the extra mile to accommodate the extra kids are the worst
newer minivans are awesome, well equipped and actually pretty good to drive
@@unclefungus7395 Don't get me wrong, today's Minivans are amazing, but the market (Gen X) doesn't drive a Minivan because it's what mom and dad drove when you were young and I know you're not gonna drive the vehicle your mom drove unless you like driving mom cars
The 3.0 V6 is the one to own 100%. Loved that thing. One of the most reliable vehicles I've ever owned. Everything worked always, the engine sounds great and it moves, felt like car more than an SUV.
Agreed! Our 2011 V6 is great.
V6 + S-AWC is a very good combo in our canadian winters
2007 V6. Ready to hit 200, currently at 191
My favorite part of the video was the unexpected ad for a 2022 Outlander in the middle 😂
Just as the word Middling shows up!
I love early attempts at LED taillights from the 2010s. We're just now getting to the point where a few may burn out and it looks TERRIBLE.
The worst are the chargers and durangos with the “race track” led light. Looks horrible when they fail.
Seen a couple escapes with the third brake light starting to go. Not sure if it's an LED module or six separate incandescents but it's probably LED, so have fun finding a replacement that's as cheap as just changing a bulb.
Like stoplights in a failing town that can't afford to fix them because too much money is spent on "social services."
@@_zigzak oh, and those are like $500 bucks to replace (and that's the only solution)
@@mikehall3976 That's what has got me fretting over my Focus. LED looks sharper, but if any of the diodes fail, the WHOLE thing needs replaced
While their cars are perfectly acceptable (at most), Mitsubishi's branding is their biggest crutch in the US. Their dealers typically don't inspire confidence. They regularly advertise "second chance" type of financing, aren't in the best areas, and are rarely very nice.
On my morning commute recently, I noticed that a shady used lot (with a very bad reputation) had a Mitsubishi banner on the side of the building. All of a sudden, they were a dealer (they didn't have a shop, so I don't know how they were going to handle repairs and maintenance). That's the 2nd or 3rd attempt at a Mitsubishi dealership in this town in around 10 years. None were what I would consider a proper new car dealership.
just in the past couple months, an old Cadillac dealership in Charleston that's been sitting abandoned since my family moved here in 2013 had a Mitsubishi banner draped over the empty sign. now the tiny-ass lot is filled with Outlanders and assorted used cars. don't really expect it to last.
Mitsubishi dealerships from my experience are just ghetto little shanty town dealers piggy backing off an even more ghetto used car dealer
Funny enough in my country Mitsubishi is a strong brand with good status and the SUV's hold value really welland are super common and competitive with other brands. The national dealer called Veinsa is one of the strongest car dealerships in here, they distribute Isuzu, Geely and Citroen vehicles here as well.
Yeah there's only one new car dealer in the city limits where I live and it's just a Mitsubishi dealer lol
As a fourth child I can say the backseat pov brings back memories
This was the best car I've ever owned. Hauled so many paddle boards with this. Loved the tailgate. Took out the second row and slept in it several times. With AWD it is a very good and safe outdoorsman car. Sister crashed it, and because it was so affordable it was totaled. Also the second row has a healthy amount of leg room. This was a consumer reports recommended buy.
So was Nissan Altima .... Cvts and poor build quality
I have a 2019 Outlander and love it for all of your reasons. Solid, very underrated SUV.
Six foot bed with seats folded flat?
I had a 2010 GT with the V6. Can confirm the third row is useless. But the V6 made it a much more tolerable vehicle.
How much do you make her growl until she upshifts XD
Right i own a really good condition 2010 xls with the v6 and with the lsd it drives very well
My aunt drove from Kyiv to southern belgium in a 2017 Outlander due to the current invasion of Ukraine. She, and 3 other people had to sleep in it for 2 days at the Romanian border, and she did it comfortably. The 4WD also held up when having to cross fields to avoid traffic jams. Only got to drive it yesterday, but imo, it’s a very comfortable and spacious car. Floats like a 50s Chevy but then again, it isn’t a sports car
This Outlander actually looked newer inside and out compared with the one that came after it!
Yeah, Mitsu’s design language went to shit after the “HNNNGH ANGRY HEADLIGHTS” phase.
Had two 2006 Outlanders with automatic transmission and the 2.4 liter I-4. The hood was big enough for a V-8 LS swap, so one of the easiest to work on modern cars. Parts were cheap. Replaced the front CV drive shafts myself easily for about $300. Good, basic transportation for our teens with oddly twitchy steering.
the hood was big enough, so you swapped it, right?
@@CarsMeetsBikes Ummmm. Yeaaaaaahhhh.
Some of them did come with a V6, at least in Japan and Aus.
"Reset because I already lost" and the video went into an ad for the 2022 outlander complete with AC/DCs Thunderstruck
I am a fan of this, second-generation Mitsubishi Outlander, but with the 3 L V6 engine and the six-speed automatic transmission.
I feel special.
me too
As do I
Myself also
You are, my brother
I also feel special. sub 100 views!
I detailed one of these at home, and to and from the customer’s place I just said out loud “ go go go go go go go”.
I just pretended I was in a red GTO VR-4 and I felt better.
I don't have this much imagination.
My experience detailing Mitsubishis was always just the S M E L L
I'm not offended by this vehicle. Styling is subjective, but it looks reasonable for the year. It meets all the requirements of a CUV - holds people, starts, runs, etc. It's a shame that Mitsubishi sort of gave up on the US market.
I just bought a 2019 GT. I love it. Good gas and it only costed me 26.000.00 the interior is good (I'm not a fan of bells and whistles) it gets the job done. But the biggest thing is 10 years 100 thousand miles.
Shitsubishi!
That point about the Outlander being “invisible” is fantastic. Because I scrolled past this video thinking I had watched it before. Can you blame me? It’s a silver crossover suv that looks like a 4Runner at a glance
Remember that time you said something was the official car of “can we just get something and go? I’m hungry”? THIS!!! That’s all Mitsubishis and modern Nissans. Ten years and it’s a throw-away…
Side rant: the fact that this was probably a Cash for Clunkers buy and some 90’s Explorer or Tahoe gave its life for this plastic man-van makes me a special sort of mad.
I bought a first gen Outlander last month. I love it. Here in Europe, it is very expensive to drive a bigger car, and the Outlander is reasonably cheap when it comes to insurance and taxes
Such nostalgia, we had a pretty base 2008 of the same generation, I learned to drive in it. 16 year old me thought because it had selectable AWD and a "sport mode" it was basically an Evo, I'm lucky I never wrapped it around a tree. It saved my mom's life in a crash so it was safe, probably the only good thing to say about it.
i learned to drive in one of these too lol. 2009 manual diesel
I rented one of these with 3 friends for a cross country road trip. It didn't have the paddle shifters or any form of manual gear selector which, with the stubbornness of that transmission, was really frustrating in the mountains.
Unfortunately it had a keyless start system with both rental keys held together by a metal security ring, and with a key fob range that wasn't very precise, apparently it would start with the keys on the roof. You can probably see where this is going. One of my friends started the car while waiting for me and I guess left the keys on the roof before I got in to drive. The car didn't give us any kind of warning about the keys missing until we'd driven about 3-4 hours away, by which point it was too late. We backtracked but never found them and just parked as close as we could to an Enterprise for the night before turning it off.
Of course since Enterprise in all of its wisdom and generosity provided two keys that were inseparable, we had to pay for the replacement of both and split up the cost amongst us since we had no proof that our silly friend had in fact left the keys on the roof. Of course we caught him doing it again with the second rental car but still, not concrete evidence. On the bright side our replacement was a Dodge Caravan, which was a huge improvement that in spite of weighing 1000lbs more, handled far better in corners.
That's my Mitsubishi Outlander story.
Let me guess that friend tried to get out of paying back his portion of the bill for the new keys.
Outlanders from about the second generation upwards are very common down here in New Zealand but you never really sort of notice them. They're like background noise. They just...exist.
As a fellow Kiwi I can confirm above statement
As a fellow Kiwi I can confirm above statement
As a 2020 outlander phev owner with just my wife and I, I feel attacked.
Also. I just noticed the paddle shifters, side mirrors and digital display between the dials IS EXACTLY the same in my 2020my. Wonder what else they kept.
Heated seats switches are exactly the same as well. Went from a 2009 outlander to a 2018 PHEV and kinda disappointed of all those common parts on the interior.
Mitsubishi is the definition of "If it ain't broke don't fix/charge it"
Toyota does that and nobody seems to complain. Especially between 1990 and 2010.
The darned HVAC controls are the same pretty much across the entire lineup. Window switches too.
@@gionder +1- Noticed the other day that the cruise control switch on a brand new Land Cruiser is the same as my ‘01 Rav4.
@@joshuarodrique2096 see? Over 20 years apart and it's still valid of a point. Sure, if it works, I guess no need to change. But come on, doesn't the thing look outta place?
The dual rear door hatch is awesome on this. Such a deep loading floor from the back. They got rid of that in the new outlander.
I like the look of the new generation, but I wonder if it still has that Mitsubishi "reliability."
@@Ghostbustingjedi Those new gen Outlanders are almost all Nissan under the skin. I am not so sure.
Yes! First glance it looks dumb but it gets used all the time
My parents' Fiat Marea wagon had a similar rear opening, it was very convenient
I have a 2012 outlander sport and its the most reliable car ive ever had. It has broken so many times but has fixed itself everytime. Its a transformer.
But when you accelerate it does accelerate the next day
Great job on the ‘Outlander’ music. Sounds like it was fun mixing that.
Yup I loved the "Skye Boat Song" parody! I waited through the whole video for a nod to the TV show. Wish granted!
I've got a 2008 v6 that I got for super cheap and it's surprisingly peppy and reliable. almost at 300k km and still runs, shifts and drives great on the original powertrain. It's not an exciting car overall, but I think the v6 is honestly a must, I actually get better gas mileage than what I've seen people with the 4cyl ones seem to get. Plus the v6 has an actual 6 speed transmission instead of the CVT is also pretty nice, nice crisp shifts for a mom-mobile lol. I only bought it because it was a cheap car I planned to fix up a bit and flip, but I ended up keeping it after driving it around for a while. The 4wd is honestly better than I expected from a front wheel biased crossover. I never looked twice at these before I owned one but I would actually recommend these to people if you need cheap reliable transportation. but only if you get the v6 lol.
I think the outlander (and the entire line up from mitsubishi) looks not bad if not kinda good before they stick evo face on every single car they have
your so right. That is why i love my 03' 1st gen outlander. 06/07 is when the new lancer came out and all the facias changed. Sub 2006 Mitsubishi Motors was amazing.
YOU LIKE THE EVO FACE DONT YA? YOU LOVE IT SO MUCH YOU WANT TO BUY ONE RIGHT!?
Yup, I get that same feeling of the engine being way too small for the application in my mom’s Dodge Journey with the 2.4L “World” engine; whenever I have to floor it, I yell in my head ‘I need power NOW’ as an asshole in a lifted brodozer truck gets bigger in my rear view mirror as I’m passing someone else on the interstate. Thankfully I don’t have that same problem in my new (to me) Buick Lucerne; those 2 extra cylinders make a HUGE difference for pass ability and overall performance.
it ain’t the cylinders though the newer turbo 4s are pretty fast, if nothing else
We still have our 2009 Outlander XLS V6 4wd loaded Navi & Rockford Fosgate. Right now at 99k miles. Bought brand new March 2009. Till this day 0 issues just routine maintenance. Btw I am in Michigan the winters suck here.
I have a 2017 GT V6. The V6 is a fantastic engine and I love the thing.
I have the 2016 GT with the 3.0 L V6 rated at 225 hp and it's about 0 to 60 mph in 7.5 seconds.
The mpg can range from 23mpg in normal mode to 28.3 per tank in eco mode (primarily fwd).
It's a damn shame the V6 ones were so hard to come by. Way better than the 4 cylinder and the cvt.
I own a 2012 Outlander XLS, the last of this model before they changed the body style. First car I actually saved for and bought with cash and I love the thing, its the nicest most comfortable, most reliable car I've ever owned
It would honestly be much more conformable to have 2 people in the back of a regular crossover without a 3rd row lol
THIS. I'm sick of carmakers squeezing that 2nd row to claim they have a 3rd row. What is this, a crossover for ANTS?
@@skenzyme81 I think the 3rd row is for the "I have 1-2 kids but what if I need to drive one of their freinds crowd" or second vehicle with enough seats "just in case" same just in case mentality of all the 4runners and subarus with studded tires all winter in a area that averages less then 10 inches of snow a year and school closes at 2 inches (they might try skiing once sometime though so gotta be prepared)
@@esfreerider Exactly right. Fitting five small kids in the rear two rows is entirely realistic. For normal use the third row is kept folded, but for the 'trip for ice cream after the Little League game with a couple of friends' this is just fine. It's the equivalent of the way-back seat in a station wagon, which was hard to climb into and had terrible legroom, but could hold two extra kids (or four if you had the facing seats Ford offered and their legs had been amputated.
@Mark Miller the 3rd row in this particular car isn't usable for any kid older than a toddler tbh lol
My mom has an 06' it was my high school car, it was weirdly nifty, and had great torque. Super fun to learn how to drive. Loved the review.
I had a slightly above base 2011 Outlander and that damn thing was ultra reilable.
Theres a few models out there in Europe which had the SST Transmission taken from the Evo and paired with the V6 or Diesel and equipped with S-AWC (S-AWC which the GT trims have gotten in North America)
My grandpa has one of these and when it shifts into gear it *clunks* , though I think it's something to to with the heat shelf rusting and the engine just shakes when going into gear cussing it to *clunk*
A clunk when going into gear usually means there's a bad motor mount.
Engine mount
@@OhPhuckYou but it sounds like thin metal clunking, not a big clinck, like you don't really "feel" it as much as you would if it was an engine mount, still could be a mount tho.
I owned a 2007 with the v6 and 6spd for several years and every time you'd put it into gear it would make a clunking noise. I was told it was the abs doing a self test and the car drove 60k miles before I traded it in at over 190k on the odometer and I never had problems or had to replace anything other than struts, shocks and sway bar links
As a Sienna wanter, I feel attacked. The Sienna is the nicest living room on an AWD platform.
By far and away the best car I have ever owned. Nothing, absolutely nothing went wrong with it over 200,000kms and 8years, before I sold it. Everything still worked and it even had its original wiper blades.
It is huge inside (for a small SUV) and took everything thrown at it.
I don't know what it does in terms of MPGs, but the best I got in litres was 6.7ltrs per 100. Which is a lot better than most modern SUVs.
It even did an outback trip through central Queensland. Hundreds of KMs on dirt roads and seemed to drive better on dirt roads than tarmac. Lots of fun.
As for safety, this got one of the highest used car rating in real world crashes of any SUV from this generation.
A very underrated car.
I agree I've been driving my 2011 for 13 years and don't want to sell it cause it's so underrated
Rented one of these back in ‘08 up in Montana. Fortunately it had a V-6 and was AWD. The Fosgate sound system was good. It carried the 4 of us with comfortably. I remember it because of that tailgate. So convenient to tie boots up and have lunch on. It was fun to drive around Glacier National Park. You never see these on the road anymore.
Holy shit, excellent "Outlander" reference with the outro tune. Props, Roman!
Comprehensive review, great job, Mr. Regular! Roman! Oh my! You outdid yourself with the song at the end! Well done!
I think you may have reviewed the wrong trim or variant of the 2nd gen Outlander.
Mine was an 07' ES but with the 3.0L 6B31 V6 w 220 BHP. Overall, the car is not much different, but it was torquey and punchy for what it was. Was able to outrace a couple 7th gen golf GTis, but that was probably thanks to AWD. Not to mention, I had the pre-face change variant, that had a grill inverse in its shape to this Outlander. I thought that was the more attractive design than the 'Evo grill' here.
Awd does not make you faster
@@Dankcatvacs you're not wrong but in some cases, it helps for grip and weight management
@@Dankcatvacs AWD gets you off a line faster, yes it does.
I dont think the Golf knew you were racing
@@kruspepoq8985 this too ... I felt I was balanced on all 4 compared to some RWD chevy surburbans and dodge durangos I was also racing back in the day.
My grandparents have had an Outlander for like 13 years now. Like a non-malignant skin mark. It just sticks around.
I’ve had my 2011 brand new and still drive it today. I can’t get rid of it because of how much I love this car. I take it off-road all the time on Jeep trails outside of Vegas. It survived the storms of Florida (where I grew up), snowstorms of upstate NY (where I lived 8 years), and now the off-road trails and mountains out west. And I have the 2WD standard. Truly remarkable. Easily fits two large mountain bikes inside without me needing to disassemble them. It is so lightweight that when you’re alone, it accelerates really well. I’m a faster driver. Great gas mileage. I love the tailgate. Took it many times skiing up in the snowy mountains of Utah. Didn’t need chains to make up a hill with 2WD. Very few mechanical issues, all which Mitsubishi covered with their 10 year warranty. Until a major mechanical failure I just don’t see any justifiable reason to give my car away. Like some other comments, the most underrated vehicles of all times. The US market overlooked them and no one really bought them. Now I have people come up asking about what is it and making comments on how cool the tailgate is!
A friend of mine got a new Outlander last year at SRP, which was quite an achievement. I visited them over Christmas and I was quite impressed by how it performed, actually. CVT pulled like a train even with the base engine, no nervousness about merging on to I-45, doing 70 at about 1500 rpm.
I loved these last 2 reviews. Thanks as always.
I would well maybe I wouldn’t like to meet the guy who went into the dealership and said (regular car reviews voice) “hey Martha I like THIS one”
Hi have a great appreciation for RCR's general knowledge and inclusion of it randomly in reviews, when you hear the reference to the Beatles free as a bird, you know these fellas are on another level when it comes to crafting their videos
Old lady drives an 07 pre face-lift.
Pros engine and parts are plentiful
Cons seats suck ass long trips are a pain
It isn't that slow (we have the 6 cyl) lol I usually put it in the sport mode to get pick up. But the sport mode really shines with you lock the AWD and kill the snow.
180k miles and the car hasn't given us many issues
For some reason, this was also sold as Citroën C-Crosser and Peugeot 4007 in Europe (along with the Outlander version, and they were all made in Japan as far as I know). I see them every now and then on the road and I just keep thinking the owner must have been looking for "a car" and, like you said, ended up with that one. Otherwise, I can't understand why would you want one of those.
Mine was an 07' ES but with the 3.0L 6B31 V6 w 220 BHP. Overall, the car is not much different, but it was torquey and punchy for what it was.

I think it was part of a deal to give Mitsubishi access to PSA’s Diesel engines. And at the same time Peugeot and Citroen could benefit from having an SUV for their lineups.
@@_autoverse yes, I think the same. Although PSA also had a relationship with Toyota at the time, with the little Aygo / C1 / 107. I wonder why they didn't go with the Toyota for an SUV. Too expensive, I guess.
And without even looking I can guarantee the Citroen looked way better than the Peugeot
I was looking for this comment.
My parents test drove one of these when they were new, and all I remember was thinking the front end looked cool and the salesman singing the praises of how safe it was due to its crumple zones
I haven't laughed so much in any other episode of RCR, thank you!
That's the closest you guys in the US got to having a Peugeot or a Citroën, at least in recent years.
We also got the I MiEV which was also sold as Peugeots and Citroens
It was the basis for a Peugeot suv
Beautiful song as always, Roman.
I love that i had to watch an ad for the 2022 outlander before this video. Well played
It’s very visible once you turn the audio system to its make, painted rally red and window downs. It’s fun.
I never knew how much I needed four-part-Roman-harmony in my life until the end of this video
In all these years this is the first car these guys have reviewed that I've owned and everything presented here is spot on. Who buys them how it drives how it feels. 100% accurate. I often forget I had one
Love your reviews!!!
Oh boy, two weeks in a row where I forget what you even reviewed. Now *that's* Regular!
Thank you for the dictionary of obscure sorrows reference... Solid AF reference. On the obscure references as always RCR.
These Outlanders also came with a 3.0 V6, with 230 hp.
Monday morning RCR with a cup of coffee, watching a 2011 Outlander RCR then having a commercial bust in to try to get me to buy a 2022 Outlander. Outrageous.
Got this same ad myself. I didn't know the new one was basically a Nissan Murano. To think that a giant mobile audible blah could get worse...
Great review of the Mitsubishi Outlandish
Would love to see one of your type of videos on my '17 Outlander SE S-AWC.
I was blessed with a 2022 Highlander ad with thunderstruck for the music in the middle of this video
The bluetooth functionality was a key feature in 2010. The vehicle handles and stops realy well and over 12 years ive had it, it has had no rust at sll. Its a great car.
This was the best EVO review
My pop up ad before this video starts is of course for a 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander. Still "midding" 11 years later.
The first mid-roll ad I got was for the 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander - Perfect
On the comment about you not doing many Saabs, I have a 2005 Saab 9-5 ARC that I would be honored to have you review.
You nailed the tune and feel from the outlander TV show.
this is my gf's first car. hers has the v6 in it. goes pretty good. heavy but you've got to pay attention to how fast you're going. i can't imagine this thing with a 4 banger.
I didn't expect you to quote the dictionary of obscure sorrows lol
Nick, you killed the outro track.
My mother in law had one of the first generation models. It was awd and did okay in the snow. To me, it was like driving a Saturn Vue. The check engine light came on the same year she bought it new and dealership could NEVER get the light to go away. It liked to "burn up" O2 sensors is what she was told by dealership. She drove it around for 15 yrs and when it hit 200k miles (which is a milestone) the trans started to slip and other issues arose (I addeda bottle of Lucas and it got by for awhile). I believe she received $900 trade in (if memory serves correctly) for the vehicle and it was clean. Nice car, just terrible on fuel and tires. Hers was pearl white with the Sunroof and alloys. I thought it looked pretty nice, but very sluggish in performance. I wanted to buy the car, but she wouldn't sell it to me due to its issues. Thanks for for upload.
As an Outlander Sport owner, the nicest thing about Mitsubishis these days is their simplicity. They're not gonna light the world on fire, but they reliably get you from A to B in a basic modicum of comfort and you don't have to worry about electronically controlled everything failing. They're simple economical transportation in an era where that's becoming harder and harder to find.
All I can think of during this review is that this is great for your average person in their early 20s. When I was in school, the folks with the bigger SUVs (old land cruisers, grand cherokees, hand-me-down sequoias) were always the ones driving to concerts, road trips, nights downtown and tailgating. Cheap, okay on gas and roomy (besides the 911 back seat tier 3rd row).
The one you want is the 2010+ GT with the fancier AWD system, v6 and a regular 6 speed automatic.
I needed that final reference.
Right after this video finished I got an ad for the Eclipse Cross.
Chef's kiss
Where i am from, we never got the lancer X but we did get this. It was cool to see that front end and since it was an SUV, it was viewed as practical, even more so that the sedan we didnt get.
Liked the reference to the outlander TV series in the song at the end of the video
You are bang-on with this review, We had one for a few years and although there was nothing wrong with it there was also nothing interesting about it.
The only good points I could say is the V6 (which is no longer available) is quite torquey. And since it has been around since the dawn of time every problem has been ironed out so they are very reliable.
Got the add for the new Outlander in the mid-roll. Gotta love that algorithm.
Roman nails the song at the end.
Excellent review, but can we take a second to bask in Roman's truly beautiful outro song?
worked on a lot of these, tended to be pretty beat up but were generally easy to work on so i didint mind them at all
Literally got an ad for a 2022 Outlander midway through the review, 😆. They got me hook, line, and sinker
"It's more invisible than an Avalon." I felt attacked for a moment, then I thought of all the times I have blown past cops in my Avalon doing fifteen-twenty over and they didn't even look at me.
I liked the Outlander (TV show) jingle at the end :)
Earned a like for the Obscure Sorrows reference.
Yes finally. I love regular Mitsubishis.
