 This is a professionally rebuilt salvage California SUV.

Vin # 4M2CU29H18KJ06795   Our original purchase and registration date was on 11/2008 Odometer reading was 10,667 This Hybrid was a rebuild and has a Florida title. The Mariner was originally a California SUV repaired and reviewed by the California state police for correct repair and safety test. Upon purchase in California I drove directly home to Florida with no issues at all. The pictures are very representative of what you will be purchasing. This SUV is a real winner! This SUV has shown to be a very safe and reliable drive!

The Mariner Hybrid offers elegant, well-regarded exterior style, an attractive interior and overall good value along with excellent fuel economy for its class. The 2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid is a small SUV distinguished by its conservatively elegant styling and good interior comfort. For 2008, the Mariner's body and interior have been redesigned. Most are happy to see the plastic body-side cladding removed and are impressed with the versatile storage features and attractive cabin of the new interior. The fuel economy and responsiveness of the hybrid power-train lifts the Mariner Hybrid above its non-hybrid version. The one of the highest tech feature about the 2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid is the hybrid power train."

The Mariner Hybrid boasts the best fuel economy in the small SUV class.  As gas prices set new records that's sure to be on the minds of many buyers.

Our use has been exceptional and the reliability has been exceptional. No failures, changed oil every 3 to 5 K miles with synthetic oil.

Tires are in very good shape. I estimate 75% left. The only reason I am selling is that I needed a pickup truck. My other car is a Toyota Prius. Thus I don’t need third vehicle. You won’t be unhappy with this SUV. It is quick in traffic and saves a lot on fuel. I also added a hitch but never use  it. 

I am selling because I purchased a truck for work. No need to use the Mariner for this type of work! I already miss the great mileage.  

No dash warning lights! Very sound driving Hybrid SUV!

As a side note I have just had the SUV professionally detailed for the new owner! Any questions please contact me though e-bay!  Jim

The 1965 Ford Mustang could have looked a lot different

Fri, May 8 2020

The 1965 Ford Mustang is unquestionably an automotive design icon, and nearly every generation of Mustang has some connection to that original car. Because it's such a universally-known vehicle, we were amazed to see all the different designs that were being considered. Head of Ford's archives Ted Ryan recently shared photos of design proposals for the original Mustang on Twitter that he and Jamie Myler found, and we reached out to them to find out more. As Ryan initially noted, the photos were taken on August 19, 1962, and they are proposals for the Ford Mustang. Apparently Ford had committed to doing a Falcon-based youth-oriented car at this point, and it did have plans to launch the car in 1964 for the 1965 model year. But after having little success with early design proposals, the company asked all of its design studios — the Advanced Studio, Lincoln-Mercury Studio and Ford Studio — to submit proposals. With only about two years before the planned launch, Ford was understandably short on time, and it's believed that the studios only had a month to create and present these designs. Lincoln-Mercury design proposal View 8 Photos The majority of the designs, a total of five, came from the Advanced Studio, and part of this was because they already had a couple of concept designs in reserve it could present. Two other models representing three design possibilities came from Lincoln-Mercury, and just one model with two options came from Ford. The Advanced Studio proposals are shown in the gallery at the very top of this article, and the Lincoln-Mercury and Ford proposals are in the gallery directly above this paragraph. The Advanced Studio's most radical design is the one that was clearly related to the Mustang I concept that would be shown later that year with huge wraparound rear glass, turbine-inspired bumpers and enormous side scoops. The other proposals from the studio were more conservative, featuring simple lines, grilles reminiscent of the Falcon, and one even borrowing the jet-thruster-style taillights made famous on the Thunderbird. Lincoln-Mercury had some impressively bold designs, particularly its fastback that had buttresses to extend the shape all the way to the tail. This car had two different side trim possibilities. The other Lincoln-Mercury design was toned down a bit, but had two interesting possibilities for side detailing, as well as some crisp, low-profile tail fins.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford 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.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
