I had the Mariner for 16 months now. Excellent vehicle to drive. Averaging 31+ MPG mixed mode driving. Great vehicle with a very Roomy interior. I enjoy trying to get the best gas mileage. Traded in a GMC Safari (17+ MPG) saving lots of gas $.

Two weeks into the new hybrid and I'm glad I bought it. It's fun to drive...great response from the steering...rides firm and quiet. So far averaging 29 MPG in a mix of NYC traffic and highway. GPS is much better than the 07 reviews I read.

2008 Mercury Mariner 4WD Hybrid

Love the new interior quality and the DVD nav system. Still getting used to the large appearing snout and high beltline, but people are looking and asking. Traded an '07 Escape 4wd hybrid which compared to the '08 is shameful. Many, many more amenities this yr, such as outside temp, compass, dual zone climate control, tire press. monitoring, trick center console, color keyed side view mirrors, thicker laminated glass in front and auto dimming rr view mirror etc.,and the price is about a grand less. This indeed is progress. Bold move? Dunno, but it's got a bold front clip! Great ride!

This hybrid is awesome. I bought it for my wife. Ii find that I am trying to find ways to get the keys from her hands. This Mariner is just fun to drive and well appointed. Everything about it just wow. Definitely pleased. Plus the tax incentive will definitely help offset the cost. Must go drive and try out. If you can afford to spend a little more, it's worth it!

Just switched from an '05 Mariner FWD V6 to a 08 AWD Hybrid and we are super impressed. Great redesign of a car we we still liked from the first version. The interior is much improved and seems bigger although it is not. Overall a more upscale looking vehicle. Hybrid engine is a joy to drive. So far we are hitting close to 30 even with the majority of miles being on the highway.
