    2003-4 Mercury Marauder Article ---> September 2004 Issue Of Hemmings Muscle Machines

    Hello,

    I am interested in the opinions of readers here regarding the 2003-4 Mercury Marauder article which appears in the September 2004 issue of Hemmings Muscle Machines. Open the floodgates!

    Is the article online? Can you post a link?

    Otherwise, all I can tell you is this; If they agree with me - meaning they like the MM - Hemmings is the foremost automotive authority. However if they disagree with me, Hemmings is equivalent to the north end of a south bound donkey.

    Very poor article,only 870 made in 2003 I do not think so. They make some valid points but it was mostly Marauder bashing! With only 870 made I quess they could not find a Marauder owner to interview. They also did not visit this web site. I like the magazine but this writer was very uninformed about the Marauder.

    Would you expect anything more, just because it's Hemmings? In my brief time as an owner, my experience has been that most people (sometimes even FoMoCo employees) haven't a clue...

    Could anyone scan the article, for those of us not fortunate enough to have it at our disposal?

    Hello,

    I believe my paraphrasing of the article is very close when I say that the very last part of it summed up the 2003/4 Marauder approximately as follows: ".....Could of, would of, should of......didn't".

    Happy Motoring!

    But, then again...they'll probably writing a glowing article about the Crapster 300C or the Mugman...which will show their TRUE taste in performance automobiles.

    Thanks for saving me the $s on getting a copy.

    Agree with Todd. Both these cars are up near the top in the ugly category.
