 Rare 2004 Silver Mercury Marauder 302 hp hot rod sedan. Consumer rating 4.5 out of 5!!! Unmatched performance, reliability, safety, ownership experience…  

I love this car and have meticulously maintained it since I bought it in 2005 from the dealership, with frequent oil and transmission fluid changes etc! It has all keys (2 remote fobs with master keys, and 1 valet key), original door locking code (for door keypad), and owner's manuals. I added a Bluetooth phone adapter that works with the "phone" button on the factory radio.

Features specific to this vehicle: Steering wheel mounted A/C controls, Steering wheel mounted audio controls, 5 Speakers, 5-Passenger Leather Seating, ABS brakes, Adjustable pedals, Air Conditioning, Alloy wheels, Auto-dimming Rear-View mirror, Auto-leveling suspension (with cut-off switch), Automatic temperature control, Brake assist, Dual front impact airbags, Dual front side impact airbags, ETR AM/FM Stereo w/Single CD/Cassette, Front Bucket Seats, Heated front seats (2-stage), Front fog lights, Front wheel independent suspension, Fully automatic headlights, HomeLink Garage door transmitter, Heated door mirrors, Illuminated entry, Leather steering wheel, Occupant sensing airbag, Outside temperature display, Panic alarm, Power door mirrors, Power driver seat, Power passenger seat, Power steering, Power windows, Premium audio system, Remote keyless entry, Speed-sensing steering, and Traction control. How enticing are all the amenities and features on this fully-loaded 2004 Mercury Marauder? This vehicle also has the full-size spare tire (unused).  The factory-equipped Oil Pressure and Voltmeter gauges work perfectly!

2004 model is simply better than the 2003 model with:

A new heavy-duty four-speed automatic comes standard for quicker shifts along with traction control and an upgraded audio system. Silver are newly available exterior colors. The 4.6-liter V8 now comes with  dual knock sensors for improved engine response at low speeds.

Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes

Mon, 18 Jul 2011

Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.

Ford finds flex-fuel engine design plays big role in emissions output

Mon, Jan 6 2014

How bad is ethanol for your engine? There's been a lot of debate on this issue as the US considers upping the biofuel content in the national gasoline supply from 10 percent (E10) to 15 percent (E15). The ethanol industry and some scientists say higher ethanol blends show no "meaningful differences" in new engines while the oil industry says ethanol creates health risks. Researchers working at the Ford Research and Innovation Center decided to take a closer look at how a wide range of gas-ethanol blends - E0, E10, E20, E30, E40, E55 and E80 - affected the emissions coming out of a flex-fuel 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis. To see the full report, printed in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, requires payment, but there is an abstract and Green Car Congress has some more details. The gist is that, "with increasing ethanol content in the fuel, the tailpipe emissions of ethanol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, methane, and ammonia increased." At least NOx and NMHC emissions decreased. The researchers say that the effects are due to the fuel and "are expected for all FFVs," but that the way that a manufacturer calibrates the engine will affect NOx, THC, and NMOG emissions. It's this last bit that's important, since the researchers found, "Higher ethanol content in gasoline affects several fundamental fuel properties that can impact emissions. ... These changes can have positive or negative effects that can depend on engine design, hardware, and control strategy. In addition to direct emissions impacts, higher ethanol content fuel can also provide more efficient combustion and overall engine operation under part-load conditions and under knock-limited higher-load conditions." So, as we head towards more ethanol in our fuel supply (maybe), manufacturers are going to need to learn how to burn it most efficiently.

Petrolicious shows Mercedes 280SL as architecture in motion

Wed, Jun 17 2015

While still an absolute beauty today, the design of the pagoda-roof W113 Mercedes-Benz SL was revolutionary when it debuted. Moving away from the soft curves of the previous SL models, the all-new generation brought an upright, angular shape that was as much architectural as automotive. In the latest video from Petrolicious, owner and architect Daniel Monti expounds on the inspiration that he gets from his 1969 280SL's fantastic styling. The roof is the most famous design feature of this generation of SL. Look at the top from the front or back, and you can see a gentle, downward arc that evokes the look of a pagoda. That one styling element is also a fabulous counterpoint to a vehicle that is largely more angular than curvaceous. Petrolicious wonderfully illustrates how some of the SL's form-follows-function design aesthetic can be found in the architect's work in this video's heaping helping of mid-century modern goodness.
