#715 of 780 Michelins. by mschmal Aug 26, 2007 (9:31 am)
The conti's on the first MKXs might have just been a result of Michs not being ready yet.   Lincolns usually have Michs or Pirellis.   Mark.

Replying to: dt63944 (Aug 25, 2007 3:20 pm) I had reservations because of the "Professional Reviews" as well.. Then I took the car for 3 test drives at 3 different dealers.. I now have approx 900 miles on my own MKX. I feel this SUV was made for me. Are there things I would have wanted differently? Yes... But no deal breakers..... Use the professional reviewers as a guide but ultimately be your own judge. I will say be wary of the Camel interior. From my perspective too much glare...   My review of my MKX is embedded within a response to another person that gave a review of their MKX ... Good luck ....

Replying to: nvbanker (Dec 03, 2006 7:35 pm) Growing up in the South Bronx during the '70's, the Buick "Deuce & a Quarters" were quite plentiful, and from my observations, if you couldn't get a Cadillac nor a Lincoln, you got a "Deuce & a Quarter". I loved those cars. Also remember the Wildcats as well. Frankly, the LaCrosse is woefully underpowered, and very weak as far as acceleration goes. Rented a Lucerne once, and it was very smooth and quiet, I have to say. However, I happen to agree with you that Buick does need to get back to their distinctive "look".
#718 of 780 Rear Bumper Protector by floridasand Sep 08, 2007 (7:29 am)
We recently ordered the Rear Bumper Protector ($55) from Lincoln. It was a very thin piece of vinyl with adhesive backing that did not go the width nor the length of the bumper. Although it came with a small applicator, we opted to have the Lincoln dealer put it on. The serviceman did try carefully to put it on, but there are still lots of bubbles in it. Lincoln is ordering another bumper protector to try again. We liked the idea of bumper protection from suitcase scratches, etc. on our White Chocolate MKX. We wouldn't have ordered it, however, had we known the flimsy quality and inferior size. Replies to this message: gregg_vw (Sep 08, 2007 9:24 am) verdugo (Sep 08, 2007 12:40 pm)

Replying to: floridasand (Sep 08, 2007 7:29 am) It should be standard equipment, like on VW bumpers...a clear plastic film that if badly scratched, can be replaced. They are a bear to get on later, as getting out all the air bubbles is not at all easy. Replies to this message: verdugo (Sep 08, 2007 12:40 pm)

Replying to: gregg_vw (Sep 08, 2007 9:24 am) My 07 Passat Wagon 4Motion doesn't have that. I ended buying a very nice bumper protector for $90.
#722 of 780 Re: Cargo Cover Is Available [mkxawd] by sneakypie Sep 10, 2007 (3:23 pm)
Replying to: mkxawd (Aug 24, 2007 7:35 am) Just had my cargo cover installed. It is certainly different from the retractable cover I had in my previous Subaru Outbacks. Here goes... It is a sturdy vinyl that attaches with three elastic bands around each of the rear-seat-headrest posts. Then a clip on each side of the cover fastens the center portion to the rear-window channels. The back is fastened by two elastic loops to rotatable "T" fasteners which were installed in each interior side. Because of its location, it covers from the top of the rear seats to the bottom of the rear window--really the whole, high cargo area.   To fold down either of the seats, one unfastens the appropriate headrest band(s) and presses the seat-release button (or folds the seat manually). As long as at least one outer-headrest band is fastened, the cover is sturdy enough to maintain its flat surface and continue in cargo-cover mode. To fold both seats, the side and rear fasteners can be unattached and the cargo cover will collapse with the seats. Naturally, the whole thing can be removed; it folds easily and, though more awkward to remove than my previous retractable covers, does not have to be left behind because it is flexible--not attached to a bar.   The height of the cargo area it allows is its saving grace. I can't think of many times I will need to remove more than one or two headrest loops. It is just so different, I will need time to form an opinion...

Replying to: sneakypie (Sep 10, 2007 3:23 pm) Thanks for the follow-up ..... Doesn't sound too bad.. I envisioned something that needed to be removed every time I needed to put one or two of the rear seats down ... Thanks for the terrific explanation ....
#724 of 780 Re: Vista Roof [belfast] by belfast Sep 20, 2007 (11:46 pm)
Replying to: belfast (Aug 01, 2007 1:50 pm) IT is now fixed. Lincoln had the dealer replace all the parts except the glass in the roof. The mec> showed me the real problen the rear glass slides we litterly frozen...Ford/Lincoln spent a pile of money on this repair. all the new parts and 3 days total shop time...just mabe they will listen to the people that are now charged with repairing these frozen slideing roofs and make simple adjustments on the assy: line like lubrication on moveinf parts. o'well mine works great now.
