Overview & Reviews

Second-row bucket seats are available on Luxury and Premier models; a tire-pressure monitoring system is now standard on these models. The Advance Trac stability control system is a late-availability option on two-wheel-drive Mountaineers. The upgraded Audiophile sound system with in-dash CD changer is optional on Luxury models, while Convenience models no longer offer a cassette player. Finally, power-adjustable pedals are a new option on the Convenience model.

• Excellent ride and handling characteristics for a truck-based SUV, strong optional V8, comfortable cabin with user-friendly layout, good crash test scores.

• Some low-grade materials, low resale value, confusing controls on highline models, poor fuel economy.

  Did they say we bought an Escalade? - 2004 Mercury Mountaineer
  By Astrophel M. Tejada - April 3 - 2:00 am

  We have the children quiet on long trips. Turn on the DVD..... It looks so stately with the pearl white color on it. It feels so strong and powerful!

  By Geir81 - February 15 - 10:00 am

  I traded in my volvo s80t6. I love the Mountaineer. Drove to Florida on my 2nd day owning it. NO PROBLEMS at all. Very comfortable leather seats. V8 is smooth and strong. Stearing tight. Radio not super, but acceptable. Very smart design inside. microfiber good touch. steering wheel control so conv. very sharp all-round. I love it!

  Great SUV - 2004 Mercury Mountaineer
  By fjrogers - December 28 - 1:23 am

  This is my second Mountaineer. I have been very happy with both. The 2004 is a V-8 AWD and it is great for towing and gets decent mileage for the comfort and power. It is a fun SUV to drive and great on long trips I get 15 mpg in town and 20 mpg on the highway. Towing my boat or motorcycle trailer I get 14 mpg. I highly recommend this SUV.

  An Upscale Explorer - 2004 Mercury Mountaineer
  By Andrew A. - October 9 - 10:00 am

  I traded a 2002 Nissan Altima 3.5SE that I bought new from Norwood Nissan in Rhode Island because we needed the extra room and didnt want a mini-van. At first me and my girlfriend looked at a 2001 Lincoln Navigator but the payments would be around $800 a month. Definately out of our price range. We also looked and test drove a 2002 Mercury Mountaineer with everything and figured out the price a month, the salesman told us a brand new Moutaineer would only a little bit more money a month but still in our price range. We decided on a black on charcoal and grey two-tone leather Mountaineer Premier and love it.

  This SUV is underated! - 2004 Mercury Mountaineer
  By fairlanecobra - August 28 - 10:00 am

  This SUV is great. We looked at several others, ie Pilot, Highlander etc. While slighty more expensive the feel of the SUV is so much better than the others, very comforrtable and space for every thing the family needs. Ride is great and very quite.
