Love the SUV, but poor interior quality

We love the room, the ride, the v8 power, the appearance, and we know from the past that we will love the AWD. The MPG is acceptable for an AWD mid-size SUV. We test drove the vehicle on a bright sunny day 98 F and heard no rattles or noises, but took delivery in the evening after sundown, temp 71F. On the way home the upper console started making an annoying noise when we hit seams in the road. We made 2 visits to fix the problem. Another Mountaineer that hadn't been prepped did the same thing, as did the 08 Explorer Rental. Service manager said that if more than 2 do the same, then Ford would say they're built that way. Excuse me? Dealer put foam in that area. Problem solved for now?

My new 07 Mercury Mountaineer is awesome it has a killer sound system super smooth ride and a easy to use Nav System and the V8 Engine can beat just about anything you want it to its really cool i love the design and the colors look great Dark Cherry and Light Tan Leather the Mountaineer has it all and at a price you can afford and it has plenty of passenger space and cargo room and the 18 in chrome rims look great with the dark paint and the rear park asst is a great feature and the interior quality looks great and so does everything else and i never would have thought that when i was 26 i would own a Mercury but they have some really cool cars u should check em out u might like what u see..

Great SUV

I have owned this SUV for about 2 months and have just over 1400 miles on it. My wife and I just love this SUV. Between the styling (both inside and out) and the comfort, this SUV is the best car I have ever owned. There's not one day where I don't like driving it. The interior is comfortable with the leather seating, third row and power fold down feature. The Mountaineer comes with more features than the Explorer in the same price range. Only suggestion I could make is to splurge and get the V8 engine. The V6 is a little sluggish, although it consumes gas like the V8. That's the only complaint I have with this SUV is the gas mileage. Other than that, my wife and I love it. Buy it!

My all wheel drive 2008 Mountaineer with the chrome package and tow package is great I have absolutely no complaints very little repairs and handles well but very difficult to drive in the city and get over 7 miles a gallon highway mileage is better but I'm glad gas at the moment is down to two to $3 a gallon!!
