I didn't want a minivan, she did and got her way. However, I'm glad we bought it. The front seats are both power, heated and cooled. The second row of captain chairs are also comfortable. The third row isn't as comfortable, but we normally keep it hidden in the floor. The power sliding doors are a real convenience when carrying grandbabies or groceries. Also like the in dash 6 CD changer. Wish it had a GPS navigation system. But that's all I would add. Love to drive it. It is very agile for a minivan and is actually pretty quick off the line.

I just had my monterey for I think 4 years. It was on 04 loaded model. I loved it!! My kids loved it!! didn't have any major problems with it and drove it from NJ to Florida each year. I bought it used and it was in great condition. I recently just had a terrible car accident and rolled it and all. It was amazing my whole family of 5 walked away. No one could believe it!! That car saved our lives!! I'm now trying to find another one used.

My Mercury Monterey is excellent the ride and handling is super and the V6 Power is really great for passing or just getting up to speed The exterior style is sporty and classy and the interior is really nice i love the wood/leather steering wheel with audio controls everything works perfectly and there is plenty of passenger and cargo room the only thing i wish this van had that it doesn't is a NAV System and Satellite Radio But the thing i am most happy with is the comfortable smooth quiet ride and superb handling its awesome it really hugs the curbs and the dual climate control is there to make sure everyone is always comfortable I highly Recommend the Sporty yet Elegant Mercury Monterey..

Ever since i purchased my 07 Monterey the more i drive it the more i love it because it handles extremely well and the ride is very quiet and smooth and the 4.2L V6 Engine is very powerful and can get up to 70 in just a few seconds and the interior is extremly roomy and comfortable and has tons of cargo room when the rear seats are folded down and everything is all power the rear doors are power the liftgate and the seats are dual power and the Montereys design inside and out is extremly classy and the quality of the materials are top of the line and the wood trim in the dash and chrome door handles and locks really set off the interior well as the wood in the steering wheel i love this van..

Purchased 9/2005 due to Friends/Family Pricing. MSRP over 33,000 but with 6,000 in rebates and Family pricing, came to just over 23,000. With some 10,000 off list, MONTEREY is an EXCEPTIONAL value ! Stable, quiet and smooth rider. Well appointed interior. Wood/chrome trim; dash chrome analog clock a "showpiece". With its long list of standard features, choosing Monterey over Freestar seemed like a "no-brainer"; and compared to Toyota and Honda we saved thousands due to rebates/pricing not to mention just being able to afford a vehicle of this caliber ! This replaced a 2000 Ford Windstar and no comparison to the comfort and "luxury" feel of the Monterey. Really like this one !!

Hello,7 months ago I bought the van new since then it has had its wheel bearings and hubs replaced under a recall. The front brakes warped at 15000 (90% highway miles) and it was not covered under warranty.they cut the rotors to stop the vibration but because the rotors are so thin they warped again in 2000 miles.I took van to my own mechanic and spent 400 dollars on front rotors and brakes.Now the rear brakes are shot, there goes another $400. I am in sales for the last 15 years and have driven alot of miles on a lot of different vans and I have never had this many problems with any van this soon. BUYER BEWARE!!!! p.s the front windshield just got a stress crack.
Great MiniVan

My decision to purchase the Mercury Monterey was based on the need first of all for a van. Secondly, I needed a vehicle that could take a power lift to put my electric scooter in back (I am handicaped). The Mercury Monterey was one of only a few vehicles that could handle the type of lift I needed. It is easy to enter, comfortable to drive, and filled with luxuries. The engine is quite zippy and takes freeway speeds easily. If someone wanted a dragster, they would not be in a van. All in all a great vehicle.
Not bad, my wife likes it!

This was the first new vehicle we had ever bought outright. Previously we had leased all our vehicles. I told my wife she could pick out any van she wanted and load it up with any options she wanted. She picked the Monterey because of its looks mostly. But the cooled leather seats helped too! Plus, the huge rebates made the cost come down to like $25,000 for a van that stickered over $32,000.

My 2nd mini-van; very functional and fun to drive. 2 minor complaints; storage bins not deep enough, lift gate light not automatic. Use the folding 3rd row seat several times a week. DVD player great when having children on a trip. Sorry they stopped making them.

We bought our 2006 in 2018 but low miles. The age shows compared to new vehicles. My wife loves the Van. Heated and cooled front seats. I'm 6'1" wish the seat want back about 2" more and down about 1", then I would fit perfectly. I still fit good. This is the fanciest vehicle we have ever had. Smaller engine could have got better gas mileage and still had plenty of power. There is no shortage in engine power. We will be keeping this Van for a long time. Update July 2020 Transmission went out at 91,000 miles. We drive it like a mini van not a race car. Come to find out these vans have crap transmissions. I'm done with Ford. Between this and our 2012 fiesta Ford has lost a loyal customer.

Let me begin by telling you that the Mercury Monterey is without a doubt the best minivan on the market seeing how it comes with a standard 4.2L V6 (BIGGEST IN A MINIVAN)And standard leather seating and dual climate control and the wood/leather steering wheel and it has every available option offered by Mercury and the great looking norsea blue paint and 17" rims make this van really stand out above the others and with the extremly smooth quiet ride i want to know why this is not the best selling van because the quality and reliablity is awesome. sure the price is high but its worth it because this is the best looking van inside and out and the only thing i dont is that i dont have 2 of them .

My 2007 Mercury Monterey is awesome it has it all at the push of a button like dual power sliding doors dual power heated & cooled seats & dual climate control & a power liftgate the Monterey has a sporty exterior & a elegant interior with great looking wood and chrome trim accents & the little clock between the a/c vents look great & it has a great smooth ride & i really love going around sharp curves because the Monterey hugs them with ease & even going about 80 mph on the freeway the ride is extremely quiet & the powerful 4.2L V6 is really fast from the get up & go i love to floor it because i love that power and still get about 21 mpg i could not be happier with my Monterey i recommend it

We bought our Monterey during the "employee Pricing" campaign late last summer. Since then we have had several minor and major problems forcing us back to the dealership and to try to deal with Mercury direct. During our first extended trip, the LR wheel valve stem (obviously defective from the start as we only had about 800 miles at the time) went and we fought to have the resulting tire damage fixed by Merc to no avail. Gas mileage is extremely poor and I believe Ford/Merc are the only ones w/o a 60/40 split rear seat. We are now fighting turn signal switch issues and had to have a leak in the rear hatch fixed twice! TaKe a long hard look before buying!
Bad MPG!

It's very average and the gas mileage (13 mpg city) is horrendous. Poorly placed cup holder for driver, poorly designed center console, too expensive for what it is. 3rd row seat is very close to the floor and is only suitable for small children. Even a small adult would have his knees in his mouth sitting back there.
Mercury Monterey is the best van

Gorgeous interior, well thought out, my husband loves the seat coolers as well as heaters, power adjustable petals are great for me since I am only 5'4, memory settings for the petals/seat/mirrors are very convient, overall we love this van and will be sad to see it go when our lease is up and will be hard pressed to find something comprable will all of the extras this van offers. Fuel economy is about what I expected from a minivan, drives excellent, very smooth...
Sure beats the Dodge and Chrysler

I have owned both Dodge and Ford mini vans in the past and this is a great improvement over my previous Ford Windstar vans and a world of difference over over the Dodge which was the worst vehicle I have ever owned. My friends like the new Honda's and Toyota mini vans but I find them way to expensive and the Honda is far more noisy, the power is not as good as the Mercury and the milage is about the same. Also I was able to buy the Mercury for over $3000. less with the same features as the Honda. I for one cannot justify the higher prices for the Honda and Toyota.
Great Car

I love this car! Although it doesn't get the most amazing fuel economy it is like driving first class around town. It has everything you could possibly want in a mini van. The leather appointed seats, with heat/air conditioned features is especially nice. It drives smooth and has lots of storage. I would recommend this car to anyone who is looking to drive in luxary!

The electronics in this vehicle are outstanding. Very comfortable, easy to drive and handle with plenty of storage room. Gas mileage is not too good but is reasonable for car that weighs over two tons has a six cylinder engine and front wheel drive. Interior materials and upholstery are very good. Exterior body panel fit, trim and paint are also very good. Would like to see larger tail lights, more visable to the rear and more reflective material on the rear of the vehicle.

My Mercury Monterey is absolutely fantastic. i love it it is the best minivan out there. there are so many features that i can't even mention them all. the van has everything you need. it has a smooth quiet ride. it has the features of a $50,000 dollar luxury car would have. i love the wood in the steering wheel and in the doors and in the dash and around the radio and the leather seats are just as comfortable as can be and it has plenty of cargo room and alot of cargo room when the rear seats are folded down and anyone who says Mercury is for older people you are sadly mistaken but 10 years ago i would have agreed but now Mercury is for the young and middle aged and i think there great vehicles .

All i can say is its the best Van out there it is loaded up with luxury features and a powerful 4.2L V6 it is absolutely the best if you're smart you'll avoid all the rest because i tried them and they all stink in my opinion like i said before Monterey is the Best

I have owned many vans in the past i have owned Mercury Villagers Ford Windstars and 1 Chrysler Town and Country and the Mercury Monterey is by far the best is has a smooth quiet ride and it handles like a luxury car would and i love the wood grain accents and the chrome door handles and door locks and i love the front design sporty on the outside yet elegent and luxurious on the interior and i like the 17" rims and i like how everything is just at the push of a button you push a button and the slides open and the lift gate opens and so many more things i just love this van its so nice and sporty and i get many compliments on my van people say it looks great and i also love that 4.2L V6

if you live in the south like Florida here... you will understand that the cooled perforated leather seats are the only option you need to look for in a van... and this is the only van made that has them... you will appreciate all the great others, like power doors, ultra-quiet highway ride, compass, dimming rear-view, memory seats, pedals, mirrors, etc etc... program yours or your spouses own code in the keyless door entry and it will adjust your seats to you or her when you enter you code to unlock the door... another push and all the power doors open up... it's just simply awesome, and the workers at the plant in canada are the most detail minded folks, they did it all with qualiy!!!

This is my second Mercury Monterey i got the first one in late 03 as a 04 model and it just keeps getting better so that why i purchased a 2006 Monterey it actually has more features than my 04 Monterey Premier and the 06 was cheaper in my opinion this is the best minivan out there its by far the best looking one outside and to me the best looking one inside to the interior materials are of great quality as well as the exterior the 4.2L V6 is very powerful it can easily get up to 70 in no time and the ride is great its extremely quiet and smooth and i love the colors dark red and black leather and i love the wood/leather steering wheel and everything else as well i highly reccommend this van

The Mercury Monterrey is hands down better than the Town and Country that I traded in on it. The mileage is slightly better than the Town and Country and the van is of much better quality. I liked the T&C but I love the Monterrey. It has much more style, and is more appealing (interior and exterior.

We purchased ours in March 07. We were able to get it for 22K. At this price I think it was a steal. I am handicapped and we had it converted (VMI) to haul my power wheel chair. The Mercury has the widest opening Rt. side door 33". My Powerchair and I are 600+ lbs. The 4.2L has plenty of power and rides smooth. The dual air helps to cool it off quickly which is a requirement in Phoenix 110 heat! My wife likes the front and rear sensors and the smooth ride. Performance and handling is good considering this is a MINI-VAN and not a Mustang! Would have liked better mileage, 15-16 city and 20 Highway.

Wowza!! Minivan exceeded expectations, did not have any pre-conceived notions, BUT van is a JEWEL. Bought as corporate lease w/62,000 miles. Now 100,800 miles, still in very good condition. Dealer in Knox., said very good condition, BUT age hurts re-sale. Expecting to get $,$$$.$$! Think it’s worth more due to condition.. Luxury Ed., all the bells & whistles, even for 06 model year..
