If you’re looking for a mid-size SUV that offers a creamy-smooth ride and a comfortable, luxurious interior, check out the 2009 Mercury Mountaineer. This is an intelligent, well-designed truck-based rig that’s perfect for families and for hauling lots of cargo.

We’re getting our first look at the 2009 Mercury Sable, a car that’s known for its great interior and its high safety ratings. Unfortunately, as with earlier models, the rig’s not much to look at.

Although it has a few new curves, it still clings to the same, uninspired-looking chassis. To some drivers, though, the understated body might be comforting, given that the guts have a well-known high standard of quality.

It does bring some heat to the road: Under the hood, the 2009 Mercury Sable utilizes a 3.5 liter V-6 engine that puts out 260 horsepower. It’ll get about 28 mpg on the highway, but as few as 18 mpg in…

Just for kicks, we’re getting a peek at the 2008 Mercury Grand Marquis. If you haven’t peeped a Grand Marquis yet, you’re in for a treat. The designers behind this recalcitrant whale have decided to keep it as boat-like and unmaneuverable as possible, just to please all those old-timers with their ten-gallon hats and their handlebar moustaches. Seriously, though: This thing is a beast to park. It takes up almost as much space as a Hummer.

The 2008 Mercury Grand Marquis utilizes a 4.6 liter V-8 engine that puts out 224 horsepower. Only one transmission is available: a four-speed automatic. The car definitely does haul itself around pretty well, and fans…

We’re taking a look at the 2008 Mercury Mariner, one of the more sensible SUVs of the year. The Mariner isn’t the top of its class, nor does it have all of the best features, but it’s a solid ride all around; can pack in a lot of friends, family, and food; doesn’t do too badly on the gas; and will still make you feel mighty on the road.

Under the hood, the 2008 Mercury Mariner is using a 2.3 liter four-cylinder engine that can be replaced by a 3 liter V-6 upgrade. The four cylinder will get 153 horses, while the V-6 will push that to 200. Either option offers plenty…
