Marauder Literature

[Joe Polo]

Anyone else nerd out on original literature? I saw this bundle for sale, had to try and get it, and very excited and happy I did.

Would be interested to see what else is out there if you wouldn’t mind sharing? This is basically an 03 and 04 Sales booklet, a poster folded up with one at the drag strip with Old Marauders looking on, and then the dealer order guide papers. The 03 booklet must be very early because it never mentions the other available colors, only BLACK. And mentions traction control available Fall 2002 which I don’t believe ever made it’s way onto 2003s.

That's pretty much what I have. Got all of the publicly available stuff at the time, then the dealer book in 04 or 05 when they were done with it. I think my Marauder is the only one they sold

I see you have the instructions for the cargo organizer. I have the instructions for the B Piller optional dress up attachment. Want a PDF of that to add to the docs?

I got obsessive and have the original unopened VHS tape, all DEALER catalogs with models, paint and upholstery samples, a box of original 2004 brochures, and a repro window sticker.

Joe Polo,

2003 Marauders sold in Canada came with traction control. I don't know if it was a standard option or extra cost.

Traction control was standard equipment.

Mine does not have it. Or do you mean it was only standard in Canada?? Definitely no switch to turn it off and last time I drove it in the rain it’s off. Every car I’ve ever seen with TC had a way to turn it off.

According to the 2003 Mercury Marauder order guide (dated 01Jan2003) traction control is part of the MAJOR STANDARD EQUIPMENT.

There was a LH (driver side) dot-matrix dash trim panel without the switch (3W3Z-54046A63-EAA - w/adjustable pedals / w/o traction control); perchance the 300As may not have had traction control.

American 2003 300a's had no T/C, 300B's did. All 2004's had T/C. Canadian cars for both years came standard with T/C as the Canadian gov't required it.

[sailsmen]

Is Limited Slip considered traction control?

[gdmjoe]

sailsmen - Is Limited Slip considered traction control?
No. Traction control is associated with the braking system and the detection of wheel speed differences. Limited slip is associated with the clutches within the rear differential.

Well I guess I have a 300A. Excuse me not knowing what that means I’m new to my Marauder
