Default Selling the Monte :(

Its sad to say but I think its time to sell the monte. After bringing it into the service station to have yet again more work done to it ( leaking oil from the top back half of the engine at only 60,000 mile.) i was given a rental for the couple of days it would take to fix. They gave me a 2011 Chevy Equinox to drive and i must say I like driving it. I like the way it drives and having AWD is nice. I think i am going to go the SUV route. Need a bigger car anyways since we are thinking of expanding our family. So next week i think i am gonna start looking.

Sorry to hear you're sellingthe Monte.

If I had the funds I would like to find another Monte. But this would be a daily driver. (no laughing please cause you know how I am)

My dd isn't going to last forever. I still like the car and everything. But at 183,xxx miles the Mitsubishi V6 needs work. I just put a brand new gas tank and fuel pump in the car to get it running again. So far, so good.

Good luck with the next vehicle. I understand your reasons though. If it's becoming a money pit, and you need more room anyway, may as well cut your losses and move on to the next vehicle.

Who knows... maybe the next owner of your Monte will show up here.

I hope you know you're always welcome here. Monte or no Monte.
