Used 2003 Mercury Mountaineer Consumer Reviews
So far so good
My last two cars were a Mercedez Benz E320 and an Audi A6, so obviously there is no comparison with the ride. However, I really like driving up higher, and the vehicle gives me a safer comfort level. This is a classy SUV at a reasonable price. And, I'm sure I will appreciate the AWD in the winter.
Just like our 9 year old Explorer
The 2003 MTR replaced our lovable 95 Ltd Explore. This truck has the feel of my old Acuras that I enjoyed so much in terms of firmness in the interior. We took the 0% financing since we will keep for 6-10 years.The 4.6 is a VERY powerful engine. Fun to drive and the 3 kids love it too. They like it better than our 2001 Yukon XL.

Nice Ride
Bought this car against my better judgment. The wife really wanted it so we got it. I was surprised by the performance and comfort of this vehicle. We drive it on winy back roads and it handles like a true champ. I recommend it to all. Gets 21MPG (non E-85)on average which is great for such a large vehicle.
Great SUV
This is a superb SUV. Very comfortable and easy to drive. It handles as well as a sedan which is supprising. The ride is like your typical modern day SUV. I had to settle for the Luxury model because of the lack of head room in the Premier with the Sunroof. I am 6'1". We have the V6 with a class III/IV tow package that pulls our 3500 lb boat better than our V8 truck. This Mountaineer is my wife's primary use vehicle but is also the vehicle we get in when traveling together.
It will make you feel good
Poor Gas Milage. Great everything else. No matter what, get running boards. It looks horrible without running boards.
