2005 MERCURY MOUNTAINEER
Very nice SUV for the money. I purchased this vehicle from Las Vegas here about a year ago for my wife. She absolutely loved the vehicle but after having another baby boy we decided to go with something a little bigger. This rig has dual heated leather seats, a sunroof, power everything, a third row seat that will fold down if you need to take extra kids with you, and rear heat and air. This rig is completely loaded. It was serviced as needed since the day it was new with synthetic 5w30 oil and runs like a top. It only has about 62000 miles on it and really has a lot of life left in it. it will use about a quart of oil in between oil changes which i really like to see so you know oil is getting to the rings. There is no blow by, the engine is rock solid and the 4.0 is a very reliable motor to begin with. The only detraction from the rig is it has the usual city door dings down both sides. The tires I would call 50%, the brakes are excellent and stops the vehicle nice and straight without any hop or pull to one side. it is just a very nice vehicle with no known mechanical problems. We did have it on some ice on the way back from phoenix to see the folks from about Santa Fe, NM to Downs, KS and although it would have been better not to drive on slick road the vehicle handled it very well. I am going to start the auction pretty low with a very resonable reserve. If you have any questions call 402-984-2317. You will no be disappointed in this vehicle. Very nice for the money, just need to get rid of some vehicles to make room in the shop.

Kit Cat: Mercury Cougar makes perfect Bugatti Veyron substitute
Thu, 24 Feb 2011Bugatti Veyron kit car - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you've got a pulse in your wrist and a snapping brain cell in your head, chances are you wouldn't mind parking a Bugatti Veyron in your garage. But for most mere mortals, scrounging up the cash for a physics-bending piece of 16-cylinder glory would require all sorts of unpalatable tasks. Fortunately for those who want to look the part without having to participate in human trafficking, the kit car universe has stepped in to save the day. All you need is a 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, a boat load of fiberglass and a little patience.
Oh, and $89,000.
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
