This Year's Model Updates:

There are just a handful of changes on the 2007 Mercury Mountaineer. Most notably, side curtain airbags and an audio auxiliary input jack are standard on all models. A heated windshield is optional across the line, and the available rear entertainment system gets a larger 8-inch screen. Trim levels are simplified from three to two (base and Premier). Drivetrain warranty coverage increases to five years/60,000 miles.

Pros:
  • Smooth and composed ride, agile handling, upscale cabin with ample passenger room in all three rows, all major safety features are standard.
Cons:

  • New Purchase Observations - 2007 Mercury Mountaineer
    By -

    Weve had the Mountaineer a little over a week now and we are very happy with our purchase. I got all the features I wanted: luxury with towing power, but not a huge SUV that is unweildy to handle in city traffic and a problem parking. I particularly liked all the luxury features being "standard" on the Mercury vs. optional equipment on the Ford Explorer. I think I got a great value for the price.

  • Great SUV - 2007 Mercury Mountaineer

    I have owned this SUV for about 2 months and have just over 1400 miles on it. My wife and I just love this SUV. Between the styling (both inside and out) and the comfort, this SUV is the best car I have ever owned. Theres not one day where I dont like driving it. The interior is comfortable with the leather seating, third row and power fold down feature. The Mountaineer comes with more features than the Explorer in the same price range. Only suggestion I could make is to splurge and get the V8 engine. The V6 is a little sluggish, although it consumes gas like the V8. Thats the only complaint I have with this SUV is the gas mileage. Other than that, my wife and I love it. Buy it!

  • Solid ride - 2007 Mercury Mountaineer
    By -

    I mostly enjoy my new Mountaineer. It has pretty good comfort in all rows, has a smooth ride, and decent handling for a truck- based suv, however I do wish that fit and finish was a little better, as I have had some minor problems. Ford motor company quality control could be better

    This is my second mountaineer, I bought it brand new and got a deal because the mercury dealership was going out of business. The interior quality has decreases dramatically from the 2002 model I previously drove. It looks nice inside, just cheaply quality. Navigation makes it look very nice, and is very functional. Sound system is great. Exterior quality is OK. The paint has always been excellent on Fords, but the rims are a real problem. I dont recommend the polished aluminum rims. They have a terrible protective coat and a week of salt will destroy them. Ford customer service has always been awful, but the vehicles are a pretty good deal.

  • One great SUV - 2007 Mercury Mountaineer
    By -

    I purchased my 2007 Mountaineer last March. For me this has been one fantastic vehicle. My average gas mileage was around 18.5mpg in combined driving and 25 on the open highway with three adults. The optional steering wheel controls for the radio, fan, and cruise were fantastic. I never needed to take my eyes off the road to make adjustments. The optional 3rd row seating came in handy on more than one occasion and were easy to operate. The only thing I did not like were the gaps in the cargo area when the 3rd row seats were stowed. I frequently haul a set of timpani (kettle drums) and the wheels wanted to fall in the cracks. Other than that, I love the vehicle.

  • They just keep getting better - 2007 Mercury Mountaineer
    By -

    This is my fourth Mountaineer and there are significant improvements since 2005. The V8 is smooth and quiet, and the ride is much smoother. There is very little road noise and the body appears to be stiffer. A consuner magazine claims the Mountaineer has above average mechanical problems, but I have never had even one.

    I have owned the SUV for 6 months and love it. I am more impressed with it the more I drive it. Mileage is an honest 13 mpg in heavy city driving and getting slightly better as it gets miles. The mileage on the road is where it really shines, it is easy to get 19-22+ mph on the open road. Combined mileage has been a solid 16+ mpg for our type of driving. I love the performance of the V8 and the 6 speed is able to find the right gear when needed. The SUV is solid, quiet,and fun to drive. We own a 2000 Mustang GT 5 speed that we love and I am shocked that I find my self wanting to take the Mountaineer on trips where the road is twisty. The Mountaineer really handles nice, and just feels right.

    This is the third SUV I have owned and am very satisfied with its ride and reliability. I cant say enough good things about this vechicle. I would definitely recommend it!

  • A great vehicle - 2007 Mercury Mountaineer

    This is truly a great SUV. It handles great is reliable and fun to drive but most important it is very versatile from carrying up to 7 passengers to haling a lot of stuff (84 cu.ft.) and I have done both. The high ground clearance makes back road travel a breeze without worry of going over a rock in the road doing damage.
