  Slo-poke - 2006 Mercury Montego
  By Mark - August 29 - 2:43 am

  Ford has come a long way in producing a quality vehicle, owned this mercury from March 2005 never had any problems with it, put almost 17,000 miles on it until I got rid of it November 2005. This was/is HUGE car, lots and lots of room, great features and content. However, the darned thing just could not get out of its own way. Ford made a drastic mistake with the powerplant, its a shame because otherwise a great vehicle!!!

  I like my 2006 Mercury Montego Premier - 2006 Mercury Montego
  By oleander1 - July 4 - 7:54 am

  I recently bought a 2006 Mercury Montego. I am a senior lady and was on my own as far as finding a car and doing my own research. I used this website often. I drove 8 cars. The Mercury was the first car I drove and after considering all the others, it is the car I bought. I am no expert, but I do know quality and recognize performance in cars. This car is a lovely car. Good looking, big comfy interior, a heavy weight which drives and feels good. Corners great. You could live in the trunk. On the downside, undersized engine and some peculiar gadget arrangements inside. But overall, a wonderful buy. If you find one with low miles, buy it.

  Favorite car Ive owned - 2006 Mercury Montego
  By Dan - September 10 - 1:40 am

  I switched from GM products to Ford products way back in the 80s when I had to work on different cars. I had a 2001 Sable and wanted a car with warranty for my wife. This car blows me away. The AC controls that allow balance side to side or front to rear, the auto seat setting that sets per which remote control is used, the backup sensors, the big mirrors make backing up a pleasure, the radio that adjust sound level to speed, the fold down back and front passenger seat that allows long packages, the message center that tells all about the car, the steering wheel controls for cruise and radio, plus the 5 star safety rating...plus buying it used, what a deal and I got 100K of warranty!

  Quality - 2006 Mercury Montego
  By MD - July 18 - 2:06 pm

  Comfortable to drive and ride in. Lots of room for luggage and passengers. A really good car for everyone seeking safety, economy, comfort and dependability. I have owned several town cars and this car is equal or better than the town car. The size is perfect for driving and parking in heavy traffic and mall parking lots. I can not understand why mercury has not promoted this car the way it deserves. I will recommend this car to anyone.

  Wonderful - 2006 Mercury Montego
  By Stephanie - July 5 - 5:36 am

  I was looking for a bigger car, really an SUV, but when I started looking I realized I couldnt afford it. So I saw the Montego and at first I was unsure but after I drove it and tested it to the max its wonderful, great on gas, roomy, and of course with the leather its perfect. It rides smooth and quite comfortable I must say. So if you are looking for a car the Montego is a great way to go.

  A Little Disappointed - 2006 Mercury Montego
  By don - June 24 - 6:30 am

  Since all of the test drives were done in the daytime, we didnt realize that there were no daytime driving lights until after the final deal. I like DTDLs especially for overcast and rainy days. I like to be seen. The interior is great except that there is no automatic unlock feature when you put the car in park. I did notice this before but thought it was minor. My mistake, very inconvenient. Did have the emissions light come on during a trip, took it to a Ford garage but they couldnt look at it for about 4 days. Couldnt even tell me if it was OK to drive. Very poor customer service IMO. As it turned out the gasket on the gas cap was bad. Dont like the gas cap design. Hard to use.

  For the money...cant complain - 2006 Mercury Montego
  By JTBURNS - January 6 - 8:53 pm

  Great interior. Very roomy for a car this size, needs a more powerful engine, great paint quality. I got sideswiped, dented the quarter panel pretty substantiallly but never broke the paint, needs a longer warrenty to compete, alternator went at 41,000 -- $500 ouch! 27 MPG (that will work)

  Good Family Car - 2006 Mercury Montego
  By JP - November 30 - 7:50 am

  Just got my Montego a month ago. Nice family car, lots of room for the kids. While people have complained about the acceleration I think it is adequate however the CVT gives you the impression the car is not accelerating. Interior is very comfortable for a 6 driver. The perforated leather is a little cheesy. Drives and handles nicely and the Merlot color turns heads, nobody even knows what kind of car it is.
