I want to say what a honor it was to be asked by Matthews Mitsubishi to test drive their 2014 Outlander Sport ES. I want to thank Kathy, Mike and everyone at Matthews for this wonderful experience.

Mitsubishi is back in town. In the past, you had to drive over an hour to buy a new Mitsubishi. Now it's just down the road. Matthews Mitsubishi at Planet PreOwned, 2100 Vestal Parkway East across from A&W.

If you were like me and surprised by the snowy conditions this morning, then it's a real comfort to have a reliable and safe vehicle like the Outlander Sport ES. I put the vehicle in AWC and I was on my way. No slipping or sliding. Were you able to say that? If not then make Matthews Mitsubishi your next stop.

The new Mitsubishi's start as low as 13,700. It has one of the best warranty's in the industry 10 year/100,000 miles. You want safe? The Outlander Sport won the "Top Safety Pick" award from the Insurance Institute for highway safety. It's hard to beat that.

I also loved the power it has for the hills of the Southern Tier. I was pointing out to a friend of mine yesterday when we were going up the hills around Deposit. It was taking to the road without all the rev.

Finally, I love how smooth it rides and the great gas mileage. When I first started driving the Outlander on the highway, I was doing around 80. I decided it was better to set the cruise. It also gets 30 MPG. Affordable to buy, affordable to drive with power and safety. You have no reason not to stop and see them.

Thanks again to Matthews, you have a great thing going with Mitsubishi
