2010 Mitsubishi Outlander 3.0 GT S-AWD - Mitsubishi Crossover SUV Review - Automobile Magazine

Step on the gas, and you hear it furiously pumping air, but don't get a commensurate push in the back.inline_mediumwraptextright28512487/reviews/editors_notebook/1003_2010_mitsubishi_outlander_3_0_gt_s_awd1003_04_z+2010_mitsubishi_outlander_3_0_gT_s-AWD+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue
