Nice little 4X4 2.3 liter turbodiesel Mitsubishi Mighty Max truck. Around 40 mpg saves the fuel! Solid 5speed manual transmission. This is an original factory diesel unit. These Mitsubishi 2.3 liter diesels are some of the best small diesel motors out there. Same as the Dodge D50 Ram diesel of same year. Runs good and 4wd works nicely. Body is in good condition but does have some rust in the bed and on door rocker panels. Frame is super solid as this was a southern vehicle most of its life.  It does have one frame repair needed behind the driver rear wheel (see photo).  Still drives fine, but would be good to repair rust spot.   Air conditioner is not currently hooked up but likely works.  Brakes could use some bleeding, new brake lines were recently installed.   Just installed brand new glow plugs and starts good.  I was going to use this as a farm truck but this is such a nice vehicle it would make a perfect restoration vehicle. I think everything on this unit is stock and for the right person this could be an amazing restoration of a nice truck.  Runs nicely on the road and can do highway speeds easily.  Sold in AS IS condition as while running and driving good this is an older vehicle.  Would also be a great vehicle to convert to waste vegetable oil. Odometer says 59,000 but not sure if that is correct or if it has been rolled over. Thanks

Mitsubishi showing off 473-hp Lancer Evo X Concept Final at Tokyo Auto Salon

Mon, Dec 29 2014

We know from the head of Mitsubishi USA that the special edition Lancer Evo X coming next June will be a five-speed GSR model with more horsepower, a tweaked suspension and some additional fancy "bits and pieces." We didn't expect to be this, the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X Final Concept with an ECU tune and new HKS turbo making its 2.0-liter engine good for 473 horsepower. That's 183 more ponies than the stock model. Based on a five-speed GSR, on top of that power boost it gets larger intakes and intercoolers, an upgraded cooling system and exhaust, an adjustable suspension from HKS and 19-inch Rays forged wheels. The finish is a mix of matte and gloss black, and chrome trim. Actually, we still don't expect the special edition we'll get to mimic the Evo X Final Concept; rather, we think this black beauty is a full-fat showcase for the Tokyo Auto Salon, where the Evo X Final Concept will be shown. It's a tantalizing could-have-been, and now that we've seen what Mitsu can do with the Lancer Evo when it cares just a little, we hope our that end-of-series special isn't too disappointing by comparison.

Mitsubishi previews 2014 Outlander and 2013 Outlander Sport Limited Edition

Thu, 15 Nov 2012

We've seen the new Mitsubishi Outlander in European form a few times already, but the 'ute has yet to make its roaring debut in the States. That's soon to be rectified, as Mitsubishi has formally announced plans to show the US-sped 2014 Outlander at the upcoming LA Auto Show.
Mitsubishi promises that the 2014 Outlander will be "among the most fuel-efficient compact [crossovers] with seven-passenger seating as standard." In addition to its new aerodynamic bodywork, the 2014 Outlander will bring with it advanced tech like Forward Collision Mitigation, Lane Departure Warning and Adaptive Cruise Control, each with its own fancy sounding acronym.

Also on display will be a new Limited Edition of the 2013 Outlander Sport. Said to commemorate the brand's 30 years in America, the LE will boast blacked-out side mirrors, center bumper (whatever that means...), wheel arches and roof rails. Other tweaks include dark-chrome alloy wheels and the necessary badging. Interestinglu, Mitsubishi says it has fitted a new balance shaft to make the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine a smoother operator.

Race Recap: 2014 Pikes Peak Hill Climb

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

The weather didn't interrupt the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb this year, the sun staying out to shine throughout a mildly cloudy day. The crowds didn't interrupt the race, either. Last year there were incidents like the woman who leaned so far into the road that her camera tore a hole in a speeding Shelby Cobra and she had to be sent to the hospital. This year the organizers shrank the number of spectator viewing areas and put others behind fences, such that long stretches of the route were uninhabited by anything other than varmints.
The only unexpected visitor was a dusty track and what some competitors said were slightly higher temperatures that changed the amount of grip and increased times. Yet the calm let a couple of teams, like that sun, break through the clouds of past misfortune and claim victories they'd been targeting for years.
