Honestly, I am more about the shape and the interior of my car, but I could have kept looking if I had noticed this before purchase.

I still really enjoy my Mercury Mariner. Great look, great color, nice interior, lots of useful room, FAIR get up and go ( I have had better), but there is an annoying air sound when you drive the highway with the windows closed. You can hear the air blowing over the top and along the doors, catching ever little flashing that can grab some air. its pretty loud and is very distracting while driving.
