Only 56,000 original miles!!!! It looks like a car with only 56k and drives like a car with only 56k!!! I have a Carfax to prove it and you can look at the enclosed Autocheck report too. Very good looking car in very good running condition. Yes, this car starts runs and drives great. Mechanics: Motor and transmission are very good. Exterior: Paint and tires are in very good condition. Paint is faded in a few spots near the roof, but very good overall. There is a very minor dent in drivers' door that's barely noticeable (see photo). I'm not sure you'd even notice it if you didn't know it was there. Interior: In very good shape. Front seats are covered, but look very good underneath too. Rear / backseat power windows are closed, but don't go down - likely a simple fix. Headliner is missing. Car has a 3rd row seat that folds flat and a hideaway picnic table in the back too (see photos). Backseat also folds down for extra cargo room. Car came from NJ and the NJ inspection sticker on the windshield is valid until December 2014 (15 more months). Car also passed DE inspection last week and I have the "Passed" paperwork, so a DE buyer can tag / register it for 2 years in DE without needing inspection. You could also tag it as an antique, if you'd like. Car has 2 needs: 1. Although the car just passed inspection, it likely needs rear brakes. It can still be driven carefully as is (brakes passed inspection). 2. I've been taking the negative battery cable off at night because something is draining it - maybe an interior light or something. Will make a nice driver with a little attention. I've tried to detail the condition of this car as openly and as honestly as I can, but I may of course missed minor details and / or minor imperfections. As with any used car, the car is for sale as-is. If you have any questions, please ask me. I want you to feel comfortable with your bid / purchase. I require a $100 deposit via paypal within 24 hours of auction's close. The balance is due within 7 days, cash in-person. Car is to be picked up within 14 days of auction's close. If you need more time to pickup the car, once paid, I can likely store it for you for longer for a monthly fee - please contact me if you need to make those arrangements.

Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday
Mon, 04 Oct 2010Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.
NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
