    2003 Montero: Keep, Trade for 4Runner, or ???

    I went through the same debate when selling my Gen 1: gx470/v8 runner vs gen 3 Montero. Ultimately it boiled down to budget and my expectations for the truck. I got my Gen 3 for $3,500. Great condition, but due for maintenance. Entrance price for similarly conditioned GXs/runners was...

    Sedole's Gen 3 - the Iron Hog

    Long time lurker, finally decided to make a thread here on expo. This is my second Montero. My first was a Gen 1 LWB: The gen 1 was one hell of a truck and I dearly miss it, but I wanted something a little more comfortable for long road trips and more power for driving up the mountains to...
