Used Mercury Mountaineer for Sale

This vehicle is large enough to carry me, my daughter, and my service dog along with anyone else who wants to come along. The only thing I wish was that it got better gas mileage. Those trips to Disney are comfortable, but expensive. I have over 100,000 miles on the car and the most money I have spent on it was $300 for a new alternator. Not bad, I believe.

For an SUV I've had for almost 18 years with only 80,000 miles on the clock, this Mercury Mountaineer has held up incredibly well. The interior of the car was state-of-the-art in the late 1990s and still holds up well to this day. The 6 CD changer is great for the long car trips I go on with my family. The driver's seat is incredibly comfortable, and the car handles well both in town and out on the open road. For an older SUV, the car gets decent gas mileage, sometimes topping 25 MPG in nicer weather on the highway. This can be attributed to keeping up on the car's maintenance. The V8 engine has a lot of kick and accelerates well when needed. This car has had very few problems for a vehicle of its age and has only needed new batteries twice and new tires once. In addition, this SUV can also double as a moving van. With the back seat folded down, I was able to fit an entire living room's worth of chairs and side tables inside! The Mountaineer is also a great kid-mover too, going between after school activities, this SUV gets around with ease.

This vehicle has served me moderately well over the years. It has a nice powerful engine and gets around decent in inclement weather. It also looks very classy. The exterior is sleek, with large wheels. I have the silver trim package. On the interior, I have the tan leather version. It is easy to clean and still looks good. My model came equipped with a 5 disc CD changer. It is not a great sound system, but once again it gets the job done. I have had a few issues with the reliability of the vehicle. The A/C went out and appears to be a common issue. Their have also been some issues with the drive-train. The wheel bearings have went out on both sides. All in all, this is a nice looking vehicle that has held up reasonably well over the years. The problems haven't overwhelmed me. I would recommend this vehicle if you need a decent vehicle, that looks good, and gets around well in snow and hilly terrain.
