The concept Zephyr and Aviator were styled far better than the production garbage they foisted on us.. hopefully the production MKS, MKR and this thing have a more uniquely Lincoln look.

For what it is. Basically a non-boring van. It would do better under the ford badge I think. This doesnt even fit the so called new direction of the lincoln design with the mk concepts ect.

FORD IS KILLING THE VAN. THEIR IS NOLONGER A MARKET FOR THEM, UNLESS YOUR DODGE. Now for those who can differentiate a van from a crossover. This is going to be the 3rd seater from the MKX. For those who try to make their 2 seaters into 3 without changing the vehicle, it doesn't work. Has anyone looked at the 3rd row in the small crossover/suvs. Their is absolutly no room. Their are way to many retarded kids on this websit. I feel like I'm getting on my sons case all the time.

Namely, importing Ford of Europe cars and rebadging (Opel -> Saturn). If that was the case, then there would be no room for a large family hauler if Merc bcomes the Euro niche player. It actually makes some sense to have Ford be the All-American basic, Lincoln be the All-American luxury, and Mercury be the Euro-design division. What other direction can you take Mercury, especially not in Lincoln's direction, since most Mercury dealers also sell Lincolns. Those of you who remember the Merkur debacle do not need to respond to this post. You forget that nobody could pronounce the name of the freakin' company, and the XR4ti surely gets the award for goofiest car with the goofiest name. Mercury could make this work, so bring on the Mondeo already! All those complaining about the demise of Mercury should consider what Ford my have up their sleeves.

I can understand why Ford wants to step into the relatively lucrative Range Rover-ish segment, but with a Lincoln??? What is Ford trying to do? It's a bit like Michael Jackson attempting a come-back... And stop beating on Chris Bangle. Even though I didn't allways agree with him on his decisions, he's taken automotive design up a step or two, placing emphasis on the designer, leaving room for e.g Adrian Van Hooydonk or Anders Warming of BMW.

I think that's a decent car line-up if their design cues and features are similar to what has been shown on the car show circuit. The MKX will also be there (updated in 2009) (and probably the Navigator, although, hopefully with a nicer nose and a different engine). Then you will have this crossover, probably similar in size to an Explorer and half way between the egg shape of the CX-9 and the box of the Fairlane concept, maybe similar to the Mercedes GL? Yes, I think this could be a good crossover if pulled off well and differentiated significantly from the Ford.

The town car can barely compete with the 300C Avalon and Lucerne. The redesigned 300C and the Zeta Invicta and maybe even DTS will crush it by the end of the decade. Lincoln doesn’t even have a midsized RWD competitor.

I think the people running Lincoln must take the special, short navigator to work.
