That is the most beautiful truck I've seen in awhile.

[@FordEra]

I think your right

[@spaceace1006]

"you're"😉

[@spaceace1006]

You haven't seen my Electric Blue 2017 F150!!😁 I always get compliments on it!!!

[@phantom0456]

@@clayton5229Electric Blue“ is the color, not the method of propulsion. There was no electric or even hybrid F150 available in 2017. That being said, thirteenth gen F150’s are a dime a dozen, so I agree that nobody with any real appreciation for trucks would care about or give such a truck a second glance when compared with this beauty, though I question why you’re here if you have such a great dislike for Ford, as the truck featured in this video is essentially a vintage fifth generation F series in Mercury guise.

[@jeffsavage7135]

I didnt know Mercury made: -a 250 -a 4×4 -a crew cab And now to see that all in one truck? Just wow!

[@LynxStarAuto]

They made them all the way up to the 700 chassis! Look up a Mercury M700. Super cool trucks

[@phooesnax]

Mercury was the ford truck in Canada. Pontiac were built on Chevy chassis lots of quirky stuff up there

[@demoguy3475]

Hi all, Brad here. Thank you all for the positive comments and thank you Solomon for putting this video together! We really enjoyed the F100 show, met some great people and are looking forward to bringing the Merc Crew back next year! And for those of you in BC and Washington area I look forward to meeting you at shows this summer! And for the record there were 2 winners in the crewcab class, congrats Mark @ Bumplife 👍👍

[@bobkat2599]

Brad, beautiful truck! If you don't mind, could you say again where you got the wood bed kit? Kind of gets muffled in the video and I just can't make it out. Thank you.

I'm 63 years old and have owned several Ford trucks during my lifetime, but I had never seen one of these, nor did I know they even existed until this video. Way cool, that is a good lookin ford. Thanks guys...😉

[@andrewbird57]

Same. I'm 66.

[@MickeyWN]

Other than me being 67, everything you said applies to me. I'm a Ford man, had a supercab amonst many others, but I never even knew that Mercury made a truck.

[@stevet5379]

Same here, had Ford trucks from the 70's and 80's and 90's and always knew about Mercury half tons... but I had no idea they made these. Absolutely gorgeous!

[@LynxStarAuto]

They made these trucks for several generations, a 19 year run. The reason you probably have never seen one is because they were sold exclusively at Canada dealerships. Some did trickle into The US, but Canada was their stomping grounds. They used to be more plentiful, but getting harder and harder to find today. My personal favorite are the early 50's with the two tone paint job. The fenders were painted a different color to the body, which gave them a cool offset.

[@stevet5379]

@@LynxStarAuto They must have been sold almost exclusively on the west coast as I've never seen one in the Maritimes.

[@spaceace1006]

What type of Transmission does she have?? I don't recall you mentioning it....or am I just spacing out?😜 It could be a 3 speed "Cruise-o-matic"... maybe yes? Or just a manual "3 on the Tree"?? If I had been restoring it, I would have tried to set up a floor mounted shifter but still try to stick with OEM parts. My Dad had a 1976 F250 4 speed on the floor. The 1st was actually a "compound low" No PS either!! It was like driving an old School Bus! 360 ci 2bbl..sounded like one too!!

[@spaceace1006]

Oh, Nevermind!! She's got the exact same Transmission that our 76 F250 did!!!

[@FreedomRock44]

Love when a Big Fella is as kind as this guy!!!!!! Brad is just a good dude!!!

Wow. Simply wow. Been a Ford guy since the '60's, never heard of Mercury trucks. It's a dam* shame you can't buy new ones built with this level of quality - if you could, they'd sell a kajillion of them. Just a knock you over with a marshmallow job sir. Outstanding.

@@surferbri5346 Not so many, my dad bought a 68 when I was little, it was only a few years old and already had rust. It was a M100 with a 300 6 cylinder and a 4 speed. I learnt how to drive in it, but a friend stored it at another friends house and he sent it off to the crusher in the late 80's.

Interesting. I've seen plenty of old crew cabs from Ford and Dodge they were either owned by paper companies to shuttle loggers or logging companies. I've never seen or heard of a Mercury version so this is a neat find.

I never knew there was a Merc pickup, much less a crew cab. That’s my favorite body style of Ford. My dad ordered a crew cab short bed in 1974. 390/ automatic, limestone green metallic paint and tan interior. Tough as nails, rode like a lumber wagon and passed everything but a gas station. Haven’t seen one since, and pictures are hard to find.
