2004 Mercury Marauder Base Sedan 4-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
Augusta, Kansas, United States
|
2004 Mercury Marauder Trilogy Motorsports Supercharged. Here's your chance to own a fine example of a modern muscle car! A rare model to begin with, only sold for 2003-04 with around 2500 Marauders made in 2004. Then add the Trilogy Motorsports supercharger which only 250 were made. This car is kit # 166. The Mercury Marauder starts basically as a Police Interceptor undercarriage with the heavy duty brakes, suspension, transmission, and fluid coolers. Then add the 4V 4.6 liter Mustang engine from the Mach 1 Mustangs of the same year. Wrap all of that in a gorgeous black Mercury body and Voila! Modern Muscle at its finest. This one has been stored in a heated garage and taken out on weekend cruises and the occasional roadtrip. With less than 50,000 miles, that averages to 5,000 miles a year. Hardly high usage. This example has been adult owned and driven by a meticulous aircraft mechanic. Regular service and care was completed as needed. The interior is free of any major defects with no tears in the leather. Every switch functions as it should. There is an aftermarket Stereo unit with a Tom Tom GPS unit installed. The stock stereo will be included. Estimated around 450 horsepower to the rear wheels. Not super fast off of the line, but 40 to ??? acceleration is unbelievable. Looks so much like a police vehicle, it isn't uncommon to be mistaken for one. Fly under the radar. Will bring its new owner many years of hot rod enjoyment.
There are a few minor defects. You can refer to the pictures for a visual representation. There is a minor dent in the hood. Can be pushed out by a qualified dent removal shop. There are a couple of minor scratches on the paint with the worst on the right front fender. The right front wheel has slight curb rash. The front bumper cover has some paint "spiderwebbing" from a 10mph brush with a deer. The deer walked away! This incident did crack the front grill, so it was replaced. These are small issues that are hardly noticeable. The car looks great from 5 feet and is in great shape for being 10 yrs old. The tires are a little over 50% tread right now, but a full price offer will secure 4 new tires. Also comes with the special Mercury Marauder Black leather jacket in XL. No warranties are expressed or implied. Buyer to arrange and pay for shipping if needed, but I can assist your carrier. Or fly in and drive it away, I would not hesitate to jump in it right now and drive coast to coast. Cash or certified funds only. Just in time for Christmas! Don't let this one get away. |

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday
Mon, 04 Oct 2010Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.
