I have a 2003 Mercury Mountaineer that aside from the tailgate panel cracking (very well known problem) as had no problems whatsoever. It drives great, gets 18-20mpg highway, and fits our family of 4 comfortably. It also helps that my Dad works at a Lincoln/Mercury dealership (VP of Service, along with Jaguar and Land Rover), got the truck used, and his shop had done all the work on it.

However, I did have a 1995 Ford Taurus that had the tranny rebuilt twice and the heater coil go bad, all before 100k miles. The rest of the car was fine though.
