Mercury Mountaineer 2003 Overview
The Mountaineer is supposed to be a more upscale version of the Ford Explorer, and it certainly looks like it from the outside. It shares its structure and most major components with the Explorer, but apparently it shares a lot of the interior as well, thus diminishing brand differences. The Mountaineer is also powered by the Explorer's 4.0-litre V6, mated to a five-speed automatic, but it loses low-range gearing for its four-wheel-drive system The interior theoretically offers seating for up to eight people with three rows of seats, with a third-row seat that can fold flat. Standard interior features include a CD stereo, power windows and mirrors, available CD changer and sunroof, cruise control, available leather upholstery, and standard alloy wheels. The Mountaineer also builds on Ford's strong safety offerings, offering optional AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control, ABS brakes, dual front airbags and a tyre-pressure monitoring system, while the Safety Canopy side-curtain airbag system is optional.
