Sorry but the Lincolns just didn't feel all that great once I settled in on the road. They didn't respond the way I thought they would and there were several interior choices I didn't care for. The MKX especially felt like it had a fat arse and was a bit of a chore to drive. Maybe they had the under-powered crappy ones to test but I was just not that impressed.

It was disappointing b/c I owned my Explorer for a little over 10 years and absolutely loved it to the point Lincoln was at the top of my list when I initially set out to get a new vehicle. It's not to say they were anywhere near the worst of the ones I tried out because they weren't. They've come a long way from the trash that pushed me away from Ford in the mid 2000s. But if I get another SUV from them I want a spruced up version of the mid 90s Explorers w/the same interior layout.
