  Excellent big V8 value - 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By FRANK - August 24 - 7:23 pm

  My satisfaction with a 1994 ford crown victoria I purchased new, drew me back to my looking at the Mercury. The excellent value for the money of a quality auto ruled out considering the Chrysler big cars and the Toyota and Honda offerings as well as the Chevrolet big car. The comfort and room are worth the small trade off in gas mileage, plus the safety of a bigger car. The wide choices of options allowed not having to pay for unwanted and needless ones. Only one small service shop item, failure of keyless door pad which was repaired at no charge. The standard features and overall attention to detail shows that from my 1995 crown vic, to my present 2006 grand marquis, quality is first class.

  Kids call it my GEEZER - 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By WAM - February 17 - 3:50 pm

  Love my Ultimate got T-boned in a 2005 walked away unharmed cant say same for guy who ran red light. Safety and a good large American car built with good steel kept me in good shape. Went next day to same dealer and he put me in a 2006 for my insurance check. Recommend business with Rich Morton of Annapolis any day. Car is comfortable for a big guy like me at 260lbs and my wife at 115lbs and at my age in sales I dont need to impress anyone with wasteful spending.

  Classic American Sedan - 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By ghcrooks - August 21 - 10:20 pm

  Having Driven Grand Marquis and Crown Vics as company cars off and on for nearly 2 decades, when it came time to purchase a car for myself I waded into familiar territory and picked a Grand M after a less than satisfactory 2 years slugging it out with a 2003 Taurus SES. $ for $ and # for #, I dont know another mark as comfortable, reliable and smooth. Sure, the styling is dated (or is that "classic"?), but the room, ride and overall quality cannot be matched for under $25k.

  Pretty good so far - 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By Martin - February 15 - 3:20 pm

  This is my first Grand Marquis and I have owned it for 14 months. I primary use it for work and recreational driving on the weekends. I have put on 31,000 miles and its been pretty reliable so far. I get about 21-22mpg doing both city and highway driving. I think it handles pretty well for such a big car. The traction control came in handy in the snow.

  Great Car, but We need Fords Help - 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By Max Walker - May 17 - 10:56 am

  This car drives great,looks good, is comfortable and well built over all. There are thousands of people who share this view. Ford please do something to quiet some of these radical critics who make fun of this great vehicle. The more people are made to believe this propaganda, the more our resale value for the vehicle falls.

  Smooth Ride - 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By duke - January 28 - 12:36 am

  The auto handles well and gets good milage on the open road. It is stylish. If I had to find one fault I would say it could use better soundproofing. There is high road noise from cabin.

  My 2006 Grand Marquis LS - I Love It!! - 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By Carl S. - December 8 - 10:53 am

  Love the ride of my new 06 Merc Grand Marquis LS. Handled well on trip from Phx to Las Vegas after I drove 500+ local miles first. Did not realize I was doing 98 mph on the way up. The ride was flawless and handled the road and curves very well. The turning radius is excellent for such a large car and like the other comments fuel consumption is better than stated. I found it to be the best value for the large car market. Luxury w/o the price tag. People think this is your Dads / Granddads type car, but once they get into it they love it!! Big and roomy.

  roomy, comfortable, gas mileage better than advertised, reasonably quick, cavernous trunk, with the LS trim level its a poor mans Town Car.
