  • So far...great

    I have NO complaints regarding this vehicle so far. I used to be a GMC or Chevrolet person but I think this experience with the dealership and thus far with the vehicle has converted me. The ONLY complaint regarding this vehicle so far is that the sunglass holder seems a bit cheap for a car of this caliber/class. Otherwise, like I said, so far so good.

  • Did I buy a Mercedes???

    Very comfortable car! For what I paid, $50k, soon as I drove it off the lot, it was worth $33k, come on!!! Looks cool/unique. But when it cost $3000 at the dealership to replace a water pump...$900 to replace a "door ajar" sensor (I think it should be recalled since I personally know 3 others with same problem, same door actually)....$760 for a headlight bulb???? Very expensive repairs. I thought for a minute that I should've just bought a Mercedes Benz.

  • More comfortable than my Escalade

    I purchased this 2014 Lincoln MKT used in 2015 with around 34,000 miles on it. It rides great takes a while to get used to the looks but you'll end up loving the styling. Engine is great turbocharged V6 can get you to town real quick. Plenty of power but she's heavy so watch it in the turns. Lincoln motor warranty has spent $24,000 in repairs on the vehicle since i bought it and put maybe 25,000 miles on it. It has broke down numerous times from the fuel pump, transfer case, rear running light assembly, seals, and, paint. You name it they have replaced it. Of course they come and get it for you until the warranty goes out then you will need to get roadside assistance and you'll have to pick up the bill because it is going to break down on you.

  • Liking the luxury and color

    Wish fuel mileage was a bit better. Car really moves out. Great quiet ride. Plenty of room. Quite happy overall. But no place for a pen and paper, or a cell phone. There are cup holders but that's it. That's my only complaint so far.

  • Most Reliable Car I've Owned

    0-60 in 5.5 seconds, and I've smoked quite a few German and Japanese high end sedans. Interior is awesome. Ride is smooth. No issues reliability wise and I've clocked over 60,000 miles so far.
