2007 Mercury Mountaineer V8 Premier 2WD | Do It All With Style and Grace | Full In-Depth Review

First impressions are always lasting impressions…so, Make a grand entrance with Mountaineer.  With sophisticated styling and remarkable comfort, AutoWeek said “Mountaineer is an absolutely beautiful-looking vehicle inside and out.”
The Mercury Mountaineer was introduced in 1996 for the 1997 model year and was based on the 2nd Generation Ford Explorer as a more premium offering of the Explorer, with a tad nicer interior and up level exterior design cues.  Other than that, the Mountaineer and Explorer were essentially the exact same vehicle.  In 2002, the Mountaineer received a major redesign, as did the Ford Explorer and related Lincoln Aviator, which ultimately was able to separate the Explorer and the Mountaineer style-wise.  And, with the introduction of the up level Aviator, the Mountaineer is no longer king of the hill.
Our Mountaineer is actually representative of the third and final generation for this and the Aviator.  The third-generation was introduced in 2005 for the 2006-2010 model year. Mountaineer was extensively updated for 2006, with a redesigned frame and suspension; a new and more powerful V8; and an even newer six-speed automatic transmission. For 2007, "MOUNTAINEER" badging was returned to the doors (after a four-year absence).  Due to the decision to dissolve the Mercury brand in June of 2010, the Mountaineer was gone and the Explorer underwent a major redesign, no longer sharing body panels across divisional counterparts.
Due to the March 2006 closure of the St. Louis Assembly Plant, our Mountaineer was produced at the Louisville Truck Plant in Kentucky in October of 2006.
