MITSUBISHI EXPO IS SIMILARTO- EXPO LRV - EAGLE SUMMIT WAGON - DODGE/PLYMOUTH COLT VISTA WAGON. THEY ARE 5 SEATERS WITH ONE SLIDING DOOR, BUT THIS BASE MODEL (7 PASSENGER) WAS ONLY OFFERED BY MITSUBISHI

THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS IN THESE CARS WERE VERY, VERY TROUBLESOME, BUT THIS ONE WON'T HAVE THAT ISSUE... SINCE IT IS A 5 SPEED STICK.

THIS WAS MY DAILY DRIVER TO WORK AND I HAD NO HESITANCE TO DRIVE IN 700 MILES (ONE WAY) TO FLORIDA FOR A VACATION SEVERAL TIMES - MOST RECENTLY LAST MONTH.

IT HAS NEVER LEFT ME STRANDED AND I'VE NEVER HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED

SO WHY I AM SELLING ? ?
I AM DOING MORE CAMPING AND WANTED A VEHICLE THAT COULD HANDLE LOTS OF PEOPLE AND CAMPING EQUIPMENT. I CHOSE A 2013 TOYOTA SIENNA, SO ALTHOUGH I HATE TO PART WITH THIS LITTLE BEAUTY, ITS TIME FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO HAVE SOME FUN WITH IT. IN THE FACE OF SO MANY CARS WITH EXPENSIVE TRANSMISSION ISSUES... I LOVE THAT THIS WAS A STICK AND IF I TREATED IT RIGHT IT WOULD LAST AND LAST.
