Just picked up a 2008 Mariner Hybrid
 

I think I stole this one...

2008 MMH. 47.5K miles. Loaded 31K new. Looks like it was driven by a 50+ wife on church and shopping days. No wear on rear seats at all. 1 owner carfax.

$12,800! I saw a 2008 FEH with 41K miles and less options for $18.998 at Carmax and it sold this week. I bought mine about 45 minutes from the city in a smaller town hit hard by economy.

So far first day averaging 31-32 mpg with city/hwy mixed. Just have one rust spot to fix.

Nice looking Mariner there, really like the color! Mercurys can be harder to sell these days because it's a 'dead' brand. A '08 FEH for $18K sounds ridiculous but who knows maybe low mile ones are still getting snapped up for export or taxi duty which puts a premium on them.
