Good Car To Drive With Friends. — My second car, ha 90,000 miles, but is still in perfect condition. Has great pick-up and acceleration. MPG isn't bad, it's better than my last one.

2002 Mercury Mountaineer 4 Dr STD AWD SUVReview
Appearance:
Performance:
Quality:
Overall:

Good Family Suv — This was a very nice driving SUV. Three rows of seats were comfortable on long trips. Options were high and the road feel was good. No real issues with this car either. Minor maintenance with only a couple of trim pieces being corrected other than brakes and tires at normal intervals. Early issue with torque converter was fixed and nothing but oil, gas and drive after that.

Pros: Great power from high rev V8.  Comfortable and quiet. Very solid and sporty handling for SUV.

Cons: Gas millage was around 10 - 12 mpg at best.  AWD was great on road but useless in the dirt.

Overall:

Smooth, Composed Ride And Respectable Handling — Offers good space for medium-size families, decent handling, tolerable ride quality and at least some semblance of off-road capability. Mercury has strengths as a people hauler, partly thanks to its fold-flat third-row seat that ranked among the roomiest of traditional midsize SUVs.

Primary Use: Family transportation

Pros: Great Car. Runs well.

Cons: Third row seat takes up some of the trunk space when its in use.
