I previously drove a Toyota Corolla and thought it was a great auto. Since driving the compact Mariner, I love the handling and sitting up higher. A very nice automobile.

Since we purchased this vehicle for my wife the more she drives it the more she truly loves it. She says it is fun to drive and handles very well. She stated it drives as good as here 2000 jeep grand cherokee. For the dollars spent we feel it is/was an excellent value plus the cost for a new grand cherokee was approx.$8000 More, no complaints here at all, very, very satisfied so far.

This has been the most trouble-free car I've owned. I recently checked the highway mileage and was pleased to find I was getting 27 MPG.

Just purchased the Mercury Mariner 4wd and love it. This is the second snow storm in two weeks, and it handles perfectly thru the heavy conditions. The last two days I've insisted that my wife drive it to work for her safety. It does handle like a car not stiff like the Explorer we had last.

Literally purchased my Mariner within 30 minutes of walking in to the dealership and seeing it for the first time. Have never had an SUV, but jumped at this one for so many reasons - - including the low APR loan and the great safety features. LOVE the interior features such as leather seats, 7 speaker sound system, seat warmers, and sun roof. It's stylish on the outside, the ride is smooth and quiet, but best of all -- it's fun to drive! Looking forward to taking it on a long road trip.
