An average vehicle
This is my second mountaineer, I bought it brand new and got a deal because the mercury dealership was going out of business. The interior quality has decreases dramatically from the 2002 model I previously drove. It looks nice inside, just cheaply quality. Navigation makes it look very nice, and is very functional. Sound system is great. Exterior quality is OK. The paint has always been excellent on Fords, but the rims are a real problem. I don't recommend the polished aluminum rims. They have a terrible protective coat and a week of salt will destroy them. Ford customer service has always been awful, but the vehicles are a pretty good deal.
Nice Looking Vehicle
Great vehicle except the retractable running boards, need grease fitting to lube joints. Super vehicle in the ice/snow. Had to have the transmission adjusted at 10k miles. Suggest Ford look at the transmission in these vehicles, does not shift smoothly at low speeds.

Money pit
Bought this vehicle at 52,000 miles in 2013. Pros: High ground clearance, handles pot holes, curbs, and other road hazards with impunity. Very stable in all weather conditions. Cons: Since then, it had a total transmission failure, more than a few problems with the engine cooling system, two expensive computer repairs, a broken heater blend door, and a few other repairs. The factory alloy wheels corroded, causing frequent tire pressure loss. At this point, it seems like we've replaced everything but the engine. Power is adequate, but gas mileage is around 12 MPG. If I had a do-over, I would have bought a different SUV.
Love the Mountaineer
Really nice truck, pulls our boat well. Wish it had load leveling suspension though. Navigation system works well.
Not Satisfied
This is the 3rd explorer/mountaineer in my family, and I am very disappointed. The first two were fabulous cars, hence I bought another one. It is 2.5 years old, 42,000 miles, and I've had the following replaced (accident-free): tires, rims, shifter, radiator, intake fan, and belt. A new car should not need so many repairs especially when it is well maintained.
