| I have had my Mariner Hybrid for about a month. I am very impressed and am now sold on Hybrid Technology. The on board energy system makes me smile when it displays 31mpgs.!! The build quality is excellent and so is the sound system/NAV System. My only constructive criticism: Make the tilt steering wheel tilt a bit higher. A Climate Control System (with Max A/C Lockout) should be available. PS I can't wait for a Lincoln Aviator Hybrid!! | |
| Wanted to rate my new Mariner Hybrid. However, Hybrid Mariner Evaluation Selection Not Yet Posted! Hello!! This happens to be the Most Revolutionary Ford Product Since the Model A!! See my prvious note. My overall rating: 9 to 9.5. Certainly worth the investment in the technology. | |

Is the dealership extended "Portfolio" warranty a good deal at $1100? The more I read about the problems people have later in a Tribute's life, the more I think I would need one. Coverage seems rather comprehensive, addressing just about everything other than wear and tear issues. The issue is price. Thoughts? Well while I'm here, before I even get to that point, I'm dealing with a dealership that will give me $400 under invoice plus $2250 in customer and dealer cash plus $500 for financing, which the dealer says I can pay off IMMEDIATELY, without penalty to him. This is for a fairly well equipped '06 Tribute S 4WD. Any good? Thanks in advance

I got it on President's Day. They had special incentives that weekend. $2000 rebate, $1500 'Ford Bonus Cash', 'First Payment is on Us' (turned out to be $400 towards principle), and a $500 coupon from Ford for visiting the Auto Show (and would soon expire). My employer already offers 'employee pricing' so I didn't have to negotiate. It had the safety package, full size spare, and I had them add the cargo cover. MSRP was $24000 before ttl. I paid off the loan as soon as Ford's 1st payment was done, so the grand total was $18,207.19 before ttl, $20,321.61 total. Yeah, I live in a high-tax state. Hamsterman |
