Used 2005 Mercury Montego Consumer Reviews
Ford man all the way.
1st of all, I traded an 04 F150. great truck needed something that didn't drink the gas as fast. I love the car, style, comfort, sound system everything about it. I purchased the all wheel drive Premere edition with that CVT transmition. Took the car on a ride over route 2 in Ma. it handled the mountain rd with no problems. For those of you who are thinking of buying the Montego or the Ford 500, GO FOR IT. Mike D.
2005 Montego All Wheel Drive with CVT
This is really a nice car. Moved from a Linclon LS to this. The engine is a little underpowered but this is a very comfortable car to ride in and it has tons of room and lots of leg room. The interior is well appointed. I already have two door dings which may be caused by the increased height of the vehicle, but overall, it is well designed, very comfortable and attractive.

Great Buy
Mercury hit a huge win with this car.I have owned 6 Lincoln Mercury products and have given up on the imports for quality. The car is well appointed great performance and very luxurious as well. Gas mileage beats my company hybrid.
Comparison to Aviator
Main reason to switch from the Aviator was to get a high performance car that would get me more miles per gallon. Montego does just that from 10 mph to 21 mph city and 27 mph. Just the way one drives gets that. I did not want to give up many extras but are satisified with what the features have. The seating is quite comofortable and like the way the recliner is at best. Even my gas station asks me where I've been so this definitely was a solid decision I made when selecting the car, also a Ford man. The smoothness with which the car performs is impressive to me. Firm and glides beautifully on the roads. Like the structure and more important the safety devices attached to the car.
Likin' it
I traded my Lincoln LS in for a roomier car and I got it! It's only 6" longer but has ever so much more room. I went for the Premier AWD because my Lincoln was soooo bad in snow. I got used to all the nice amenities though so I went for it in the Montego. I have not been disappointed and with the CVT transmission, I don't find any lack of power when I need it. So far, I think it's a great car for the money!
