  Mercury Montery Mileage - 2004 Mercury Monterey
  By Mercury Driver - May 2 - 10:00 am

  We traded a 2000 Olds Siloutte and are somewhat disappointed with the Montery in comparison. The gas mileage on the Montery is VERY disappointing. We are averaging 14 around town and about 19 on trips. This van is also much louder (engine/road sounds) than was our Siloutte. While the van looks great, we are disappointed with mileage and interior noise. I also need to note when the rear DVD player screen is in use it completely blocks the drivers sight view from the rear view mirror. This was not the case in our Oldsmobile. Lastly, the auto climate control is confusing in setting temperatures for driver, passenger and rear. The fan speed cuts back to soon leaving the car uncomfortabe

  Moving Up To Mercury - 2004 Mercury Monterey
  By Lyndita - April 6 - 2:00 am

  I moved up from a Ford Windstar to the new Mercury Monterey and I love the luxury of the Monterey. The power is more than adequate for a fully loaded mini-van. And with the entertainment system, its the perfect family car for our frequent trips to Las Vegas.

  Monterey Van Review - 2004 Mercury Monterey
  By Susan H. - March 27 - 2:43 pm

  Overall we are very pleased with our Monterey Van and would recommend this van to others. It drives smoothly and is wonderful to take on long trips. The interior design of the van is what we like the most. It is easy to move around and the front passengers have lots of room for storage. We like all of the extra features, there are so many. We love this van!

  Mercury Montery - 2004 Mercury Monterey
  By van user - February 11 - 10:00 am

  We recently purchased a Mercury Montery. Wow! This vehicle is just a pleasure to drive. I still am learning what all the bells and whistles are for. It gives you a smooth ride with a lot of pep when you require it. I love it. The gas mileage could be a little better. Ford needs to work on that aspect, but the performance of the vehicle is superb. Very comfortable. Another point that would be nice is if all the seats folded flat. The rear seat operates quite easily.

  Good Mercury so far - 2004 Mercury Monterey
  By Barnett - January 1 - 7:20 am

  The van has been good for the 1st year. I had to put new tires and found not a tire usually everywhere. The MPG is not the best. So far I really like the room (3 grandkids) comes in handy, good acceleration when moving into traffic, etc.

  Great Mini-Van for All Your Family Needs - 2004 Mercury Monterey
  By rrherman - September 14 - 10:30 am

  An all around great buy when considering all incentives and price paid for it. Great low torque power. VERY comfortable interior. In our opinion - the best looking Mini-Van out there. Fuel mileage is comperable to all other vehicles in this segment - which all could show improvement. 3rd row fold flat seat and tip up 2nd row seats provide plenty of seating and carrying options. We are very happy with it - 2 years later!! At 60 mph - we get 24 mpg on the highway. around town is around an average of 16-18 mpg. Had a few recalls - but those were fixed right away. no problems with the vehicle otherwise. HIGHLY R RECOMMEND BUY*ING IT!!

  Look Elsewhere! - 2004 Mercury Monterey
  By Atlanta - July 10 - 10:33 pm

  We bought a 2004 used in 2004 with low miles, certified and inexpensive. Even though we got a good deal on the price- it was not worth it! First, the heated seats had to be replaced twice, the TRANSMISSION had to be replaced at 35k miles, then a whole stream of problems with the emissions, which was not covered on the extended warranty that came with a certified car. It has a clunky transmission, a loud ride, brake problems, auto door closing problems and every other option on this car has a had some sort of problem or another! Even though many of the items were thankfully under warranty, it is a constant hassle having it in the shop and there is always some sort of fee that is charged!

  Smooth ride with peppy engine - 2004 Mercury Monterey
  By ME - March 16 - 10:00 am

  We bought the Monterey new and still have it! Replaced AC @ 50K. Replaced brakes @ 85K and now have 86K. Very smooth ride, good acceleration in traffic and extremely comfy on the road trips. Lots of room for people and cargo. Overall, very very pleased. Esp like the peppy engine in metro traffic. Easy to see out of and feel safe. Good sound! Handles well. Never broken down. Reliable.
