There isn't a week that goes by without someone asking for our opinions about which SUV to buy. Funny thing is, many of those consumers would probably be better off with a nice sedan, or wagon, like the Mercury Sable. Along with a host of standard safety features, Sable also offers adjustable brake and accelerator pedals. Knowing that he's a family man with two children in grammar school and his workplace is 25 miles from home, as well as being aware that he's on a tight budget, I asked him a series of questions to identify what he wanted, and what he needed.
Sedans are more affordable, from purchase price to insurance, from maintenance to fuel expense.
Mercury's Sable is a safe bet in this segment. It incorporates rigid metal anchor points built inside the vehicle to improve the connection to a child-safety seat. Along with a host of standard safety features, Sable also includes available adjustable brake and accelerator pedals. The adjustable pedals, standard on LS models, provide up to three inches of travel and allow the driver to sit further away from the steering wheel and still be able to reach the pedals. Sable is a safe bet in terms of style, comfort and performance, too.
