No, there are (and have not been since 1950) any Mercury stand
alones. However there are many (I've seen them) Mercury-Ford Duals !
Some of those Mercury-Ford duals do NOT have Ford TRUCKS, thusly
there were in those rural areas Lincoln-Ford Truck Duals. There are
also FORD TRUCK exclusives. They do not have Windstar (Freestar,
now) nor Escape, Explorer, Excursion nor Expedition. They do have
from Ranger on up. About the only one I have never seen, and I know
there are none from the reports in Automotive News (Industry Trade
Paper) are stand alone Mercury franchises.
