I traded a 2001 Escape for the Mariner Premier and while I loved the Escape the Mariner is far and away a better vehicle. Rides better looks better and much classier than the Escape.
Nice looks, tight ride.

This vehicle nicely fills a niche between the larger luxury SUVs and the more expensive, smaller luxury SUVs (I consider it entry-level luxury). The engine is wonderful and peppy (V6), and the two-tone leather trim is nicely done. The suspension is smoother than the Escape, and it drives more carish than truckish. Brakes are quite responsive. The interior with chrome trim and very dark faux wood is quite handsome, and helped seal the deal. I went with white (living in a hot climate and beige leather). Mercury has done a nice job, and I expect to see more of these on the road soon.

i have driven explorers for the last 12 years, and i can say i enjoy my little mariner more than any of my previous fords. also with gas prices the way they are going a smaller suv for me is the way to go. handles well and is a pleasure to drive.
We love this vehicle

This SUV is still new to us, but so far the whole family loves it. My daughter asked her mom to drive her to school today in the Mariner instead of the Jaguar. Kid you not. I feel the size is just right (better luggage space than the ordinary "small" SUV). It handles very well, drives smooth. Safety features make it an additional value, even for a budget conscious consumer.

When my minivan was ready for retirement I knew I needed something that could work hard but look good. I had been reading about the Mariner since forever and was eager to test drive it. Well one test drive was all it took! THE MARINER is IT!! It has the roominess of a van, the handling of a car, the solid feel of safety, and enough of a trunk that we can pack up the family and head to the beach for a week. Plus it's so pretty! We definitely made the right choice!
