Non-Mercedes help in Portland, OR

Greetings-

My Home Depot Express (aka '93 Mitsubishi Montero) is about to cash it in. I've located a suitable replacement vehicle in Portland, OR and am looking for someone who'd be willing to take a look at it for me. It's at Wentworth Chevrolet & Subaru. Grey Mitsubishi Montero, stock number 2527. It's got 45,343 miles on it. They're asking a touch under $12K. Feel free to contact me (PM) if you're available and interested. I'm in Seattle and while close, it's not exactly "just around the corner".

Thanks,

Don't they sell Montero's in or around Seattle? Not exactly a hard to find vehicle. Buy locally, you'll be much better off.

Actually it's about the mileage and age of the vehicle. This is a '99 with low miles and no, there aren't any in this market. P'City was as close as I could find.

Why is that old Mitsubishi worth so much money? Seems like a cheap pickup would be a better buy, cheaper parts too im sure.

The one dying is a '93. The potential replacement vehicle located in P'City is a '98. Not sure if that's considered "older". I've had 4 of these and they're very strong and reliable vehicles.

Only 104K and about to cash in? That doesn't say much for longevity. You're better off getting a Toyota or Nissan pick-up. They'll go 200K+ with no trouble.
