Mercury Monterey minivan

The Mercury Monterey was a minivan sold by Mercury, a Ford marque, in the United States and built from 2003 to 2006. It was a variant of the Ford Freestar, successor to the Ford Windstar, and appeared for the 2004 model year as the Mercury counterpart to that van. It filled the gap left when the Nissan Quest based Villager ended in 2002, and revived a Mercury model name used from 1950 to 1974. Its only engine was a 4.2 litre V6 of 150 kilowatts driving the front wheels through a four-speed automatic. It was sold in Convenience, Luxury and Premier trims, the Premier offering heated and cooled front seats. Sales stayed low, with 32,195 sold in about three years, and the last one was built on 25 August 2006 at Oakville with no successor.
