Used 2002 Mercury Mountaineer for Sale

I bought this vehicle around 7 months ago, and it has been a wonderful vehicle. The only thing I have had to do to it so far is buy a new gas cap. The interior is in pretty good shape for a older car. Mercury has built a car to last with the Mountaineer. The styling of it is one of the things I like the best. It is a comfortable drive for short distances, as well as long distances. The gas mileage is pretty decent for a larger vehicle. I have driven around 14000 miles these past 7 months, with no problems. I think the only thing that will have to be done to it soon is check the antifreeze, you can sometimes smell it when the engine is running. But, who can complain if that is all that has to be done to it. I have fit a push lawn mower easily into the back compartment. I would like to see that happen in some of the smaller SUV's. For the money, I can highly recommend this car. It has a V6 engine, so it is no short in power. The acceleration is quick, and handles beautifully.

I overall love my truck; however, they are known to have an issue with the transmission, causing them to go out randomly. Thankfully, I have a warranty that paid for the rebuild. Not being a small person, I love how much room I have all over. Having a larger family, it's nice having the ability to pull the third row so everyone can fit into one car. However, at the same time, I go through so much gas. About 13 miles to the gallon and I do drive a lot of highway miles. I also like how I can flip all the seats down, allowing for a large amount of storage. I was able to load my entire bathroom remodel inside in just two trips. Another nice feature is the ability the move the gas pedal. My husband is much shorter than me and often is easier to have him just adjust that instead of the seat itself. Another issue I have is with the back windows. Having young children having the ability for the windows for the windows to go all the way down to me is dangerous. But it is nice to be able to lock the windows so only the drive can roll them down. However, I feel this should only apply to the rear windows. Generally, only adults sit in the front and should be able to adjust their own window.
