Nothing Like a van
I really love my van. The only problem I have had so far is my rear heating and air has went out and I have no clue as to what is wrong with it. My struts are now bad but I have over 100,000 miles on it. I hope one day to get a newer one with the double sliding doors.
Very Happy with Mercury Villager
Bought it new. Have owned it for 6 years. There have been no major problems. The only problems experienced are that the power locks don't always work on the passenger side, and for a short time period the rear wiper did not work. It started working again with out repair. No other problems. Braking is a little weak. Still looks great.

No Lame Duck Here!!!
I am one of the hardest people on a vehicle. With this in mind, I have never owned a more practical vehicle than my Villager GS(I think GS stands for"Gotta Speed"). I don't believe there is a ten. This is due to our individual quarks. One mans heaven may be another mans hell. My Villager is constantly driven with absolutly no significant problems. An oversight by a local auto parts store, who sold me semi-metalic brake pads. This vehicle uses 'Ceramic' pads. This error dramatically increased my stopping distance. 'BAD Thing' Otherwise it has been a pleasure to go out and fire up the van and just drive.
Larry's Merc evaluation
Nice vehicle to drive. Handles well in all types of weather. Handles full load with power to spare. Great gas mileage. I highly recommend this vehicle.
Love this car... but
I purchased this car in June of 2005, It had very low miles (78,000). We now have 97,000 miles in January of 2007. The only concerns I've had about this car are the auto locks (which no longer work properly), and the battery cable which I've had to replace. So far I feel like we made a smart decision in purchasing this car.
