The Mercury Mountaineer is a higher-end, paternal twin of the Ford Explorer. It offers a comfortable ride; it handle better than previous models; it feels sure-footed in the mountains; and offers lots of overall utility.

The Mountaineer comes in one body configuration, a four-door, mid-size sport utility, but with three interior layouts, a five-passenger, a six-passenger or a seven-passenger. Two powertrains are available: a 210-horsepower V6 and five-speed automatic transmission carried forward from 2005 and a 292-hp V8 new for 2006 with six-speed automatic also new for 2006. Buyers have a choice between rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive. Three trim levels are available, Convenience, Luxury, and Premier. Safety features fitted on all Mountaineers at no extra charge include dual-stage front airbags, electronic stability control with rollover sensors, antilock brakes with brake assist, LATCH child safety seat anchors, and a tire-pressure monitor.

For 2006, the Mercury Mountaineer is largely redesigned.

Buying a 2006 Mercury Mountaineer

Purchasing an older vehicle, such as the 2006 Mercury Mountaineer, makes good financial sense. You're able to avoid the steep depreciation rates that occur with brand new vehicles. This essentially gives you the advantage of getting a 2006 Mercury Mountaineer for less money than when it was new. If the 2006 Mercury Mountaineer was properly maintained, you also have a good chance of steering clear of problems that would have developed when the car was new.

The amount you pay for an older car depends on various factors. One important element is where you buy the vehicle. You're likely to get a better deal if you buy it from a private party, as opposed to a dealer. On the other hand, a reputable dealer will normally have some kind of limited warranty, so you can drive away knowing that if the car breaks down right away, you'll be covered. Another factor that may affect price on a 2006 Mercury Mountaineer is whether it's "certified" by the manufacturer. A certified vehicle will cost more because warranty service is provided that normally doesn't come with a used car.

Another dynamic that will play into the purchase price is the resale value. A used vehicle with a high resale value will obviously cost you more. It is expected that the 2006 Mercury Mountaineer will have a good-fair resale value. This assumes that the 2006 Mercury Mountaineer is in good condition and has a reasonable number of miles.
