Used Mercury Mountaineer for Sale

For an SUV I've had for almost 18 years with only 80,000 miles on the clock, this Mercury Mountaineer has held up incredibly well. The interior of the car was state-of-the-art in the late 1990s and still holds up well to this day. The 6 CD changer is great for the long car trips I go on with my family. The driver's seat is incredibly comfortable, and the car handles well both in town and out on the open road. For an older SUV, the car gets decent gas mileage, sometimes topping 25 MPG in nicer weather on the highway. This can be attributed to keeping up on the car's maintenance. The V8 engine has a lot of kick and accelerates well when needed. This car has had very few problems for a vehicle of its age and has only needed new batteries twice and new tires once. In addition, this SUV can also double as a moving van. With the back seat folded down, I was able to fit an entire living room's worth of chairs and side tables inside! The Mountaineer is also a great kid-mover too, going between after school activities, this SUV gets around with ease.

This vehicle is large enough to carry me, my daughter, and my service dog along with anyone else who wants to come along. The only thing I wish was that it got better gas mileage. Those trips to Disney are comfortable, but expensive. I have over 100,000 miles on the car and the most money I have spent on it was $300 for a new alternator. Not bad, I believe.

While this vehicle was not in the best condition when I bought it, it has lasted and lasted well beyond when I thought it had gone and died. And while that is due mostly to my husband's supreme patience and mechanical ability, this vehicle is sturdy and can take a beating. At 18 years old, and at least two previous owners, this SUV has taken me where I've needed to go and then some. An extra benefit, if you lay the backset down and throw down a pad, there's room for two to sleep comfortably in the back.
