2005 Mercury Mariner Road Test
Every now and then I see a TV ad or a placement in a magazine for Ford Motor's Mercury division, and wonder how it is that this once proud brand is no longer available in Canada. I owned a black on red leather '64 Montcalm coupe, ironically a model not even available south of the border when it was new, and loved it. It was massive, powerful and gorgeous, slung low to the ground, true to the brand's hotrod mystique.
