2006 Mercury Mount.
My husband and I have had this SUV for one year. So far it has been the best vehicle we have ever purchased. It is comfortable and fun to drive. the kids love the DVD player and T.V. We now have peaceful trips to the beach. Thanks LLM.
Surprise
After 2 months of agonizing over which vehicle to buy I finally decided on the Mountaineer. I gave serious consideration to the Toyota 4Runner but overall the Mountaineer won me over. This vehicle has auto lights and a few other things that only the limited 4Runner is equipped with. The 4Runner is also overpriced IMHO. I also had a really hard time getting comfortable in the 4Runner. I always felt like I was facing downward; it was a weird perspective so I finally gave up on it. I love the way this truck rides. Very powerful for a V6 and not as noisy as the 8. Very pleased overall although I do not like the interior door handle, just too awkward to grasp.

Love it!!! Love it!!! Love it!!!
I traded in my Escape for the Mountaineer and absolutely love it. Wanted something bigger, but not too big and this was a perfect fit. Wasn't planning on getting the fully loaded version and definitely didn't need it, but I noticed a BIG difference between the basic model and this (and didn't have a lot of choices for the good price). This drove much better than the basic model! I read lots of reviews before buying and I would say the petty things that were complained about aren't worth deterring you from this vehicle. If you try the Premier, you won't settle for the basic model. The difference is remarkable and worth it! Not really a complain
Educated Buyer - Met all expectations
After researching all of the real SUV's on the market, i.e. ones that can seat 7, fit in your garage, look stylish, be fun to drive, and still pull something reasonable, this and the Explorer are your only vehicles that will meet your needs. I worked for the US automotive industry a few years back, left, bought a Camry, but have since returned to my roots. After a lot of investigation, I was quite impressed with the Mountaineer specifications. Now that I own it, I am confident it was the right decision. My wife feels the same way. Gas mileage, well, you'll have to get over that. Do your homework there as well and you'll find that it's not so bad. Good luck.
Luxurious SUV with Manners
This is my first Mercury Mountaineer and I am very happy with the vehicle. It is a luxurious SUV that can be purchased at a very good price. The layout of the console is nice and very attractive. I really like the more refined looks of the detailing on the Mountaineer when compared to other SUVs. For an SUV the vehicle rides smoothly down the road. The engine performance of the V6 is adequate, and the transmission is smooth. Mercury really has a winner!!!
