Default Re: Mercury full-sized muscle

Well, if you look at the roofline, you can see they're the same car.

You're confusing some terminology, though:

The XL is a Ford. A Marauder is a Mercury.

The XL-GT is a Ford. A Marauder X-100 is a Mercury.

Both the XL and the Marauder continued into 1970.

Regarding "who would buy one?" I can tell you that, when it comes to 1969 XLs, they made 404 XL "SportsRoof" hardtops with the 429/4-speed combo, which isn't as rare as one would initially think.
