2006 Mercury Mariner 4x4

We purchased this car in February 2006, and we love it. We were hit from behind 7 months & 10,500 miles later, and there was a lot of body damage BUT: we were packed to capacity (going on a mini vacation) and everything was unbroken--including glass items that were in the cargo area. We are still waiting to get the car back for repairs, but as far as the accident went, this vehicle held up extremely well. My husband doesn't like how you "feel" the road when driving, but I do.
