Awewome especially the Limited Edition Package.

By the way.. to the guy saying Lincoln should by back this vehicle from Ocean County, NJ. I want to share info with you and anyone else. Every vehicle is transported to dealerships with the least amount of fluids and gasoline. It's very dangerous to top of every vehicle with every fluid it needs. That is why dealerships are required to do what's called a PDI (pre-delivery inspection. This is done when a customer buys a brand spanking new car *(never driven) such one with 1 or 2 miles on it. When dealers pull it to the front lot..the one's you test drive. These have been PDI'd. They are supposed to be checked again when you buy it. You most often will never have this problem with a good dealership. So the problem is not lincoln, it's your local dealership not doing what they're suppossed to. Kinda like when they mess up your order at the drive through. So next time check all your fluids just in case. And be sure to make sure you have gas. Cheap dealers don't even fill up the tank. They leave you with less than a 1/4. The Limited Edition package is the top of the line and has all options available, including a bonus colored tubing around the seats. My interior is black with grey tubing, looks great. Our friends call it a limo.

Lincoln should buy this suv back.

Vehicle came from factory with no antifreeze, of course we were on vacation in florida. At 15,000 miles engine was replaced, spent 5 weeks in loaner car. Picked up vehicle to find service engine light on, returned to dealer to have light reset. Drove 150 miles to have car quit and flatbedded back to dealer, wiring harness was fried and was replaced. At 40,000 miles a cylinder and fuel injector was replaced. 2 days later service engine light is back on, stay tuned for more info as car goes back to dealer tomorrow.

What an Experience

I never thought that I'd be able to purchase such a luxury vehicle, but when the opportunity arose, I jumped at it and am glad that I did. This has been a very comfortable SUV to drive and worth the extra dollars over the Expedition. I love the layout of the interior, except the power window switches still take some getting used to, and the power rear door is wonderful. The Navigation system works very well and easy to use, the DVD is nice, and the THX sound system is very good. I love the performance of this vehicle. The Engine has a strong power band. We average 14mpg around town and 17mpg on the highway (we did get around 19mpg on our last trip!). I'd recommend this car to anyone.
