Short Takes: 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor XLS Start Up, Engine, and Brief Tour

[TurboFuss1]

One flaw of this car (and engine which was also used in the Galant and Montero full-size) was that it required premium fuel. Maybe it increased performance but at 15 mpg and highest grade gas it wasn't a smart move by Mitsubishi North America.

Mitsu doesn't have good reputation? Are you fucking kiding me?

i dont like the mitsubishis from north america.... in my country the models are so much better.. the lancer is great(well, obviously is the same one in north america) im my country there are models like the montero, montero sport(badged as nativa) outlander, the triton pickup(badged as L200)... they are so much better looking :P

[RandyG2504]

Oh! I Want This Car! This is A 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor XLS! Wow! I Love It!

[SilveradoNation01]

Hmm. I didn't know that this redesign was this old. :)

[jifegan4]

Cool vid

[datboiwes3]

nice advertisement - I mean SUV... lol jk

But really this SUV is nice I never really payed any attention to them.

[saabkyle04]

@datboiwes3 well like I said, just understand, I'm doing some stuff for them that I'm not doing for any other dealers. The other vids won't be like this one but it was mostly a test video, they are pretty cool, I haven't either, pretty sporty looking

[datboiwes3]

@saabkyle04 haha Kyle I understand I was just messing with ya, I like this concept.

[1bentley4ever]

Make more videos in this format pleaze! I enjoy quick tours like these, and your commentary is good too! Knowledgeable commentary always helps!

[Goldenrod636]

Oh yay! I really love the Mitsubishi SUVs. I think that they make them really nice.

[bkshine87]

nice quality camera wat kind is it

[saabkyle04]

@bkshine87 thanks! This one was shot with my canon sd1400 IS, it's an HD camera

[crystalscan2002]

i like shor takess 0-o

[stopscrewingaround11]

Kyle, just to let you know so you don't confuse people.

tilt steering wheel is going up and down

telescoping steering wheel is pulling towards you or away from you. most cars don't have telescoping steering wheels.

[impaladave77]

This is a great video, for your first short video, Kyle. Great job!!!! I've always liked the Endeavor. The styling of it is a little different, which makes it cool. I don't see too many of them on the road. This one is in fantastic shape for having 131,000 miles on it.

[cojocarius]

With a Mitsubishi Outlander can you take a video? Great video!

[celsovera91]

it's a nice car, but its been 6 years and its in dire need of a redesign

[Doncreationsur]

Classic SUV

[TheSmartdude11]

they kept the same everything on this car and its still like that in2010

[newandused1998]

i guess it's okay for the people who like the long vids because there's always reruns of old vids :)

[kendrickevans301]

ENGINE SPEC, ETC

3.8 LITER DISPLACMENT ( 232 CI ) V6

225 HP @ 5000 RPM

220-230 LB FT OF TORQUE @ 3725 RPM

GAS MILEAGE, 16-18 CITY 19 HIGHWAY

[kendrickevans301]

u have to rev these small engines so high to get 100% power ( 5000 rpm for 225 lb ft torque )

[sbessette91]

I went to their website, I love how they have your video in the "pictures" section! Awesome :)

[SomeComAddict]

I noticed on FB that you said all city auto wanted you to do more videos. Is that why their website keeps popping up? It doesn't bother me, I'm just curious

Great video as always, love the drawing of the SUV on start up in the center console.

[saabkyle04]

@SomeComAddict Yeah this is something I'm doing specifically for them but no one else, I thought that was pretty cool too! Never seen something like that before

[TJC450]

To me a short take is like 2-3 minutes. Start it up show the engine go through in interior real fast and be done with it.

The only thing you left out was the radio.

[saabkyle04]

@TJC450 well it was my first time trying it, give me time lol. 2-3 min is way too short, I'm not going to upload one that short

[MrPS3Wii]

To me this is the perfect length. And wow this camera rocks!

[saabkyle04]

@MrPS3Wii thanks man!

[Goldenrod636]

@saabkyle04 Why does the start-up seatbelt noise sound like a Chrysler start?

[datboiwes3]

@Goldenrod636 Chrysler and Mitsubishi have been sharing platforms/engines, other parts etc for years... like Ford and Mazda, and GM and Isuzu.

[ndtubedude15]

@MrPS3Wii I totally agree!

[ZoFromABSZ]

i love mitsu thx kyle!

[MeInTheNewWorld]

Nice new format, short, sweet and to the point lol.

[dave11686]

I like the new format! Great video as always Kyle! Keep up the good work!

[saabkyle04]

@dave11686 thanks man!

[stephenthabeast]

I think a mix of these shorter vids and a few of the longer ones would be perfect.

[saabkyle04]

@stephenthabeast you and me both, thanks for the feedback!

[yellowcow13]

will you go back and do long vids on theses cars that yuo did short takes on

[GameUrg]

i love the short videos! (there's no need to see the hazards and what not!) btw please use a TRIPOD!!! thank you

[saabkyle04]

@GameUrg well I do that because people request it over the years and it gives the most in depth look at cars, the greatest appreciation for what they're all about lol, taken me a long time to perfect it. I will still do the regular ones but throw in these every now and then

[stlchevy95]

Hey I like how u put the engine stats at the bottom. Keep doing that :-D

[saabkyle04]

@stlchevy95 I promise I will :) I'll either say them or post them, idk why I never did that for all the videos haha

[louie8390]

IMHO I absolutely love this format! It's 3-4 minutes shorter than your most of your other videos, and yet I didn't feel like I missed anything. Great video, as usual, Kyle!

[saabkyle04]

@louie8390 Thanks for your feedback. this wasn't as "finished" as my other videos but like I said, it's a pilot.  I still love the old format, but I will start doing these more for more "common" things I guess, or repeat cars. I'll just have to work on it and see what I can make of it, good things take time I guess haha

[LanuzaFox]

Where you able to get to that red MR2 Spyder?

[Corkoth55]

i love this car

[automotiveguru22]

i like both formtas the longer vids for the more special cars and the short for more common cars

[saabkyle04]

@automotiveguru22 i'm kinda thinking the same thing, just determining what's more "special" will be the hard part haha

[chickenwarrior]

Like the new format; short but sweet

[saabkyle04]

@chickenwarrior I will tweak with these short takes for a while and see what comes about from them

[yellowcow13]

@saabkyle04 wait what wheres the sound demo i like the speaker semo you do... idc about getting less vids, the reason i follow you is for the in depthness and quality of youre videos.

good luck at school focus on that not youtube:) just send a vid in when you can thx

[saabkyle04]

@yellowcow13 yeah I didn't do it haha, that's why I still like the longer ones, I am not going to quit with those, like I said, this is just for this dealership because I'm likely going to do most of their stock and it would take wayyy too long the other way. if they get any special things like the ones I uploaded the other day I will do full vids on them!

[yellowcow13]

@saabkyle04 Thx for the reply means very much to us. Ya go ahead and do short ones for the dealership especialy for like a toyota carolla or a honda civic no one really cares about those anyway.

Good luck.

[Friendly0Dan]

I like these SUV's... but Mitsubishi doesn't have a very good reputation.
