What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2008 Mercury Mariner

2008 Mercury Mariner Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic AWD
The seats have plush cushioning, lumbar control and position control. The seats are leather/vinyl (I think leather, but not sure) with center punched suede allowing some air circulation. All good for greater comfort on long trips see full Mercury Mariner review

YearComment
2012 Like other recently designed Fords, the Focus has a tighter rear seat than most competitors. At 5-9, I can sit behind myself with perhaps an inch to spare. see full Ford Focus review
