This is my first car ( I have white with leather) and I love it. I agree it's not very fast and it does blend in with the crowd but I think that's why I have stayed away from police despite hauling butt everywhere. This car cruises very nice at 70-80-90 mph and at all speeds is very comfortable and quiet which I think you missed in your review was how just relaxed it rides. Good content though !!
Old folks car, just like brand was lol
This might be my first car, I don't need power, I would rather safety and reliability..
Well I mean the V6 is pretty powerful
The only problem with this era of ford products is they very easily rust. If you’re looking at one, look underneath and make sure it’s not all rusted. Other than that, these cars are very solid and long lasting
The 2011 Mercury Milan Premier AWD V6 is one of the greatest cars I've ever driven. An All Around Fast Reliable Safe and Luxurious 4 Door in one package.
I've had a 2010 Milan 4 cylinder since 2011 that I bought used with 32k miles. It had one emissions issue that was covered, but other than that it's been great and is smooooove on the highway. I love it at 150k miles still going strong.
Mine just started "whining" when I turn. - I looked under the hood, and found *no* place to add fluid. . . ?
... Any idea on how much it will cost to replace the sealed pump?
@@zolau7702 not sure man
@@zolau7702 was the the belt
One of the best looking cars from the 2000s imo
Honestly tho ! He was talking so much shit lol I honestly think the design is now unique being a decade old it definitely has that exaggerated 2000s look
@@0c7ober7 fr especially the led lights 🗣🔥
I never was a fan of those taillights. I think the Fusion had better taillights and a nicer looking rear fascia overall. I do miss Mercury, though, if for no other reason than that they had one of the cleanest looking logos imo.
Please Bring Back The Mercury Cars in the Future.
I miss the Mercury Cars.
Bro this car looks way better than 99 Toyota Corolla
Hi. I owned an 09 Premier up until last Fall. My brother ended up with it and used it as an Uber ride. It had the 2.3 L Mazda based engine and when he traded it in, it had over 275 K. Yes, it wasn't a typo. Original engine and trans. Took it on multiple long distance trips prior it to becoming an Uber car. Solidly reliable and comfortable as well as luxurious. I was also a big fan of its styling. For a Ford based product, I thought it was quite sleek and pleasing to the eye. I'd own one again if I could come across one well maintained. Otherwise, Ill just have to stick to my current ride, a 07 Marquis.
These cars actually did come with an optional touchscreen infotainment system in the premier and hybrid trims.
Compare to the "crap" that Ford sells today - take this any day... Ford's love affair of putting a glorified "B&S/Kohler" engine in everything with multiple turbos to give it enough power to hit 65; lots and lots of electronic goo that serves no purpose; and then jack the prices higher and higher as well as the dealers in my area love to add $5,000 "market adjustment " add-ons to the window sticker - this is beautiful as well as awesome!
Just found one of these - almost a twin to this one w/less than 60,000 miles on it - going for it!
How’s it holding up?
@@c.jjones3587Well actually I will probably have to get rid of it as it has difficulties getting less than 35MPG; rides nice, handles, nice, quiet - all paid for but it just is not right that it does not have one of those little tiny ecoboost engines in it; I am not carrying $60,000 in debt against with payments in excess of $900/month; insurance costs of more than $200/month and should only get maybe 20-25MPG while going down a hill while running premium in it - just not the latest and greatest. Plus I am bummed I cannot play with a touch screen while driving 75MPH+ down the road - just killing me!
😂🤣😅😆😄😃😀🤔🤨🤐
The zoom-in @1:05-1:10 is god tier 🔥great production
Wow never knew that the interior is IDENTICAL to the same year fusions! I dig the gauge cluster having a white LED background… the fusions have the same exact dash, but the lighting is a fixed blue
I love my Milan my first car drives so nice
I have a 2011 Milan, with the 6 cylinder and 6 speed transmission. I'm getting almost 24 mpg in town, and thoroughly enjoy driving it! The 6 speed takes some getting used to, because the engine revs higher before shifting! The car is fun to drive, quiet, and has ageless styling, in my opinion! I've had Mercury's before, and always had good luck with them! Fun car!
I have the Mercury Milan 2010 3.0l v6 very reliable motor, very smooth ride feels like I'm driving a town car.
lol
How many miles do you have
@@iwhiteshots-_-306 I bought it when it had 90k miles and now it has 170k
@@theshield1613 nice. I wanna buy one but don’t know if it was a reliable car
@@iwhiteshots-_-306 its very reliable
4:27 no, it wasn't. There had been touchscreens in cars (even from mainstream brands like Toyota) long before 2010. This one just didn't get a touchscreen.
As a car fan: I might buy it someday Zack.
This really is just a 10-12 fusion, with the 06-09 front end, that someone slapped a Mercury badge on
I just saw this car in the 5th episode of the 2nd season of sons of anarchy, and it triggered my curiosity. I only knew the epic Marauder from Mercury's whole line-up. I'm glad I discovered your channel. Love the way you review cars. Thanks 👍🏻.
This is so harsh for no reason. I have a Mercury Milan sand I love it!
Love my ' 08 gun metal grey , tints , modern antenna , black gloss rims , quick as hell , fast premiere 6 cyl . 143 k miles . Love it
I used to have a 2011 Mercury Milan in silver grey. It got totaled by hitting a deer in early December 2016. It was my 3rd car. I got it in late June 2012. I wanted a Ford Fusion but, the Milan had the lowest mileage on it. My was silver grey. I do missed driving it. I even drove for 2 weeks a 2006 Mercury Milan in dark royal blue. It was when I hit a deer the first in April 2016 before the one in December 2016. I really liked the color of the older one than my car at that time. I don’t have that car anymore. Now I drive a 2020 Ford Escape SE in black. Lots of Ford and Mercury vehicles looked almost alike over the years. I remembered seeing little Ford stickers in the Milan’s hood. I have been in a 2011 Ford Fusion in silver grey. It had black cloth interior. I was lucky to have that car and it had a lower price from the original price was.
My first car was a 94 Mercury Tracer. I kind of like the Milan. I would’ve bought a grand marquis if I had not found my Deville
Nice mines was a 2011 Mercury Milan
I don’t really ever see these, I sometimes see newer Lincoln sedans or Ford Fusions. My cousin has a 2008 Fusion I see a ton of first generation and second generation Ford Fusions.
Named after the city? No sir, it was named after the cookie. You know, nice enough in a pinch, but you know that it's been on the shelf for a while.
1st of all, that Duratec engine is actually made by Mazda, not Ford. Secondly, It doesn't have power seats, it has power seat, just one.
These used to be all all over car rental lots. Definitely not enough material here to be considered "premium"
Overall, is this a pretty reliable car? Comparable to a Taurus or a grand Marquis?
Grand Marquis is much better and the only Mercury to consider/and or buy
2010 and 2011 mercury milan v6 are reliable as well.
Stay away from Taurus
Your most exhilarating review yet! I've watched it 17 times and I just cant get enough of this american icon. Thanks for the continued fantastic content!
new sub, Hi from the uk. i love American sedans. Great channel 👍
my grandfather bought a 2010 Milan and 14 year old me really liked it. I bought a 08 MKZ (same thing but Lincoln) and tbh I thought they were pretty alright cars for what they were
Mercury is comparable to Buick not Pontiac. Mercury was a Marque luxury brand.
Love the background history 👌🏾
These were fine cars. Just fine. Could have been called the Mercury Miquetoast. I have a 2011 Lincoln MKZ, and it's been perfect reliability wise, is smooth, quiet, nicely equipped, and decently quick and nimble. It has the V6 and AWD, so it's pretty different in a lot of ways, but still the same bones. Can't imagine the Mercury version being a horrible car...just "mediocre" as was the general assessment here. The Mercury segment was always a bit vague...like, should a fully loaded Mercury be as good as its Lincoln sibling with no options? A little better? Not quite as good? That border never seemed very well defined.
You're smoking something...I loved my 2006 Milan Premier. I also liked that the Milan on had two trim levels so it wasn't confusing. I personally liked the 06 looks better than the front and rear updates.
The amount of effort FoMoCo put on making the Milan stand out from the Fusion was a clear sign of the fate of the Mercury brand.
They do have Bluetooth
I got a 2010 and this is my first car
It do have bluetooth it took me along time to find it
Mercury,Oldsmobile and Pontiac were my favorite brands all gone now
Mercury was more of Fords Buick in there lineup it was a step up from Ford for the upper middle class white collar business man and the sad truth is a fully loaded Ford and a lower trimmed lincoln did the same job. Mercury had nothing special to offer.
1:07 the Milan actually came out in 2006. This 2010 must have been a mild refresh.
I got a 2010 mercury Milan with 250k miles still runs nice besides the transmission shakes the car a bit but other than that extremely reliable
I loved your review!! The Great Recession. Great review.
Is this car a good starting car or is it outdated because it’s from 2010. I either want this or a Ford Fusion
i would go with this car i’m 17 and it’s my first car and i absolutely love this car it’s so reliable and has bluetooth and everything else you need. i say go with this one over the fusion just because it’s obviously going to be a bit nicer since it’s a mid level car
I test drove one back in 2013 and it was nice and peppy.
Why did Ford Motor Co discontinue the Mercury brand?
I heard one of them said they wanna copy toyota with only 2 brands
I bought a 2006 Milan back in 2006. Nice car. Still have it (17 years later) but it's been acting up now. 💵💵💵💵 I will say that if these Milans were still being made today I would buy another one.
I found in my 2010 mercury Milan premier USB port in the center consul.
And it does have Bluetooth at least mine does
Can someone please show me where to put steering wheel fluid at in a 2010 mercury Milan. Thank you April marsh Greenville south Carolina
Think I’m gonna buy a blown Milan and MKZ, and use the identical body styles, and interchangeable parts to build a Lincoln/Mercury/Ford v6 AWD Fusion/MKZ/Milan/Fusion Crossbreed of a car.
Call it the VSLSE-AWD
Or the ‘Very Special Luxury Sport Edition)
I just need a white MKZ, and a white Milan…. And I can make the best of three cars into one premium vehicle….. why hasn’t anyone done thisv
Would you consider doing a 2010 Mountaineer Premier?
If I could find one, sure!
I just bought a 2010, Milan for my son, how do I open the hood?
With the benefit oh hindsight these brands that sit in between mainstream and luxury seems pointless.
Now mainstream cars have gotten so expensive and complex the highest trim levels cover this segment for buyers. I guess decades ago it made a bit more sense.
I would say that this "premium" segment needed more than a cheap rebadge. It needed its own charcter. On a immediately glance I would suggest making such a brand heavily invest into say.. being sporty. Being a semi luxury car isn't going to cut it. You gotta make the brand have charcter for customers and the badge to mean spending beyond a cheaper Ford or Lincoln. Mercury being sporty and investing in a sporty handling would appeal to folks.
But this is all in hindsight. Also running a car company is harder than I think most of us give automakers credit for.
You're not wrong that Mercury should have had a distinct personality. Given the history of the brand, Ford should have left Mercury as-is, and the Ford brand should have gone after the sporting role, like what Pontiac was supposed to do. Ford had Focus ST, Fiesta ST, Mustang (obviously), and Raptor. They also had Edge Sport, though that wasn't particularly sporty. They should have given Mercury all the non-sporting models, luxed-up to compete with Acura (which isnt actually luxury), and then build true luxury cars for Lincoln (they should have further developed the Lincoln LS to fix/refine that model.)
How do I open the hood of a 2010 mercury milan?
Really nice video!
If you covered up the steering wheel and sat me in this, I would have thought I was in a Ford Fusion.
It would be faster than my 2010 Versa so yeah this would be an upgrade for me.
Matches his mediocre look.
Why about a 2009 mercury sable?
This is actually not a base model ...it a trim above it ....base models did not have that Microsoft info system or bluetooth ...nor did they have those wheels or sunroof ... this one has all the up trim options with the exception of leather .
As a new car it definitely could do better, but in the used market where everyone forgets about mercury which are just rebadged fords. It does quite well as a used car and the hybrids are based off Toyota ones and get 40mpg
I have this same care and mine has Bluetooth and a USB😂😂
Same idk why he said it didn’t
I wonder why he has trouble sitting in the back of almost every car he reviews 🤔
Can you please do a 2013-2020 Ford Fusion Titanium, Platinum or Sport please?!💪🏽
Lol well mine is a v6 awd and it’s amazing....
i kept thinking that the Milan's engine is Diesel powered because i've heard the duratec engine somewhere in Asian Ford vehicles.
(oh, it was a Duratorq lol. it was an engine from Ford Focus, Everest and Ranger)
That was my first car just got rid or it too many problems and I really am sad I don’t have it anymore
The same way GM killed Pontiac, Saab and Saturn after their 2009 bankruptcy. They did try to sell Saturn. Both Ford & GM stop making small cars & sedans to focus on SUVs and trucks
Lugzury 😆 love that pronunciation.
I’m thinking about buying one of these with 140k miles for $4500. Anyone think that’s a bad idea?
This looks like a compact car.
They really tried to sell this car to women, which meant no man wanted to be seen driving one.
Does the backseat come down?
Yes
I like these 😀
"no dual climate zone" in a 2010 car 🤦🏾♂️ be somewhat realistic dude
2010 Ford Fusion, the car that this is, had dual climate.
Dual climate was pretty common by then.
My 2010 fusion sport has a dual climate and touchscreen. All stock. He said touchscreens weren't around lmao
Front end 🔚 looks better than fusion of the ERA
I have never seen someone know so little about cars, but pretend like they know so much.
This car is not made to race 😂it’s not made for anything exciting just something enjoyable to get to A-B
But with that being said the V6 has plenty of power idk why he's bashing it
Mercury Milan aka a rebadged Ford Fusion.
I take it this was traded in for a much better Toyota? lol
Get that looked at
Brother has one, certified piece of shit. My $500 2004 rusted out venture is more reliable
v6 3,0 is better
Helov havariu brader mercuri biurifol car
No mention of the power steering rack n pinion/assist issues that these are known for? 🤷♂️🤷♂️
