Never though I'd own a Mercury.....
I recently lemon-lawed a smaller foreign made van and began the long shopping process over the fall. I had read that Mercury had began selling a van again in '04, so I gave it a shot. I'm glad I did. If Lincoln made a van this would be it, and mine isn't even the loaded one (Premier), quiet, great ride, good power. It's got everything you could ever want in a vehicle. I don't mind at all giving up a little gas milage for the convience and luxury the Monterey provides. I have recommended this vehicle to all of my family and friends. With the rebates L- M was offering the price for the incredibly equipped Luxury (mid-level) was unbelieveable. Looking forward to a Holiday roadtrip w/ the family.
Loved the Villager, tried the Monterey
We have a 95 Villager with 291K & still love it, even without AC. Bought this Monetery after my husband totaled 2002 Villager & ended up with a scratch. Love it but many repairs. Now Drivers heated seat is out, Drivers side heat blows cold, replaced transmission at 135K, replace brakes on regular basis, expensive to replace tires, and windshield wipers work intermittently

Mercury Monterey Premier 2004
We tested the vehicle over the weekend and decided it was what we wanted. We drove it to CO in Nov. and it performed well. When we ran into snow and ice in Leadville, etc, the advance-trac system kept us from slipping. The gas mileage is not great but averages around 20 miles/gallon. The van weighs 4600 lbs and handles very well on curves. It is very quiet in the cabin and handles bad road conditions very well. We remain happy with the van now logging over 7000 miles of enjoyable driving.The heated seats have been a plus this winter. It is a little early to rate the reliability but everything gone well thus far.
wonderful features
This is a great van. Lots of leg room in the front. I love the buttons 2 open side doors in front as well as rear. The ride is smooth. The rear seat folds in giving GREAT SPACE in the rear when not in use. You will not be disappointed if you buy this one.
Monterey
Quite an improvement over the Mercury Villager. More features, better pickup and more comfortable.
