Paging Off-roader to the white courtesy phone!!
I've done a bunch of reading of archives and current threads, and decided I'd like a Montero. I'll be using it for some expedition-like 4x4 trips, and for towing a small trailer with quads (less than 2k lbs loaded) to the dunes 5-6 times a year.
Since I plan on doing a decent amount of off-road stuff, I decided on one with a locker. I haven't found much in the past week or so, but this popped up yesterday:

I know these engines are supposed to be pretty robust, and I might go look at it just to get familiar with what "good" condition vs "bad" looks like, but any advice on the high mileage?
Appreciate any advice, I'm tired of going "4" wheeling with my 2wd ranger!!
