This 2002 Mitsubishi Montero XLS is a true Colorado-ready 4x4 SUV that's been thoughtfully prepared for adventure with upgraded wheels and aggressive off-road tires. Powered by a smooth 3.5L SOHC 24-valve V6 paired with a 4-speed automatic and a part-time 4WD system with a 2-speed transfer case, this body-on-frame Montero is built to tackle everything from the Front Range to remote trails in the San Juans. With a clean CARFAX showing no accidents, 36 documented service records, and recent Denver service including fresh valve cover gaskets, EGR valve, and EGR feedback solenoid, this Montero is mechanically dialed in and ready for its next chapter.

The previous owner upgraded the wheels and threw on a proper set of off-road tires, and they removed the 2nd-row seat to open up a ton of usable cargo space perfect if you're hauling gear, camping equipment, or your dog crate up to the trailhead. During our shop inspection we knocked out fresh valve cover gaskets to stop any seepage and keep the V6 running clean, and the CARFAX shows the previous Denver owner already replaced the EGR valve and feedback solenoid earlier this year, so the engine management is dialed in. With 36 service records, no accidents, and a well-documented California history before it moved to Colorado, this is a clean, honest Montero with real adventure DNA.
