Base V6 4x2
2007 Mercury Mountaineer

The 2007 Mercury Mountaineer now comes in only two models, Mountaineer and Mountaineer Premier. The base Mountaineer comes with a 210-horsepower, 4.0L V6, while the Premier can be specified with either the V6 or a 292-horsepower, 4.6L V8 engine with variable cam timing. The V6 comes with a five-speed automatic transmission; the V8 gets a six-speed automatic. Both the base model and Premier come either with rear-wheel drive or a road-oriented all-wheel-drive system. With either the V6 or V8, the Mountaineer can tow up to 3,500 pounds.

The Mountaineer is mechanically similar to the Ford Explorer, but it has a very different look inside and out, thanks to satin-aluminum finishes, along with the distinctive Mercury waterfall grille in front and more elegant interior trim.

The base model comes with two rows of seating, while the Premier has three-row seating standard. A 60/40-split, flat-folding second-row bench seat is standard on the Mountaineer, but the Premier model also has an upgraded version with reclining seatbacks for access to the third row. Second-row bucket seats with a center console are available. And on Premier models, power-folding seatbacks are optional; the system allows the third row to fold completely flat with the touch of a button.

AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control, a stability control system especially oriented toward avoiding a rollover situation in tall vehicles, is now standard on the Mountaineer. Front side air bags are standard, as is the Safety Canopy side-curtain bag system covering first- and second-row outboard occupants.

The base Mountaineer comes quite well equipped, including 17-inch machined aluminum wheels, fog lamps, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The Premier includes 18-inch machined aluminum wheels, heated power mirrors, leather upholstery with heated front seats, a garage door opener, a reverse-sensing system, rear climate controls, and an Audiophile seven-speaker upgraded sound system with six-disc changer and subwoofer.

Notable options include a DVD-based navigation system, power-deploying running boards that automatically retract out of view, and a heated windshield that helps reduce defrost times.
