I believe that there is a constant balancing act going on here. Power vs economy seems to have always been a challenge for the engineers. Just to report to everyone that I have had my MKS just about a month now and by its computer it started out at 17.2 the first week, second 18.3, third 18.6, and currently it is at 19.4 (all city driving). On a weekend 300 mile trip I just took it reported 25.2 hwy. This is the AWD version also.

I currently have a Mercedes E350 and the lease ends next month. After test driving a Cadillac CTS Mercedes C300 and looking carefully at the Lexus Is and GS I ordered an MKS today. The ride is fantastic and the power is more than adequate, The interior room and electronics clinched the deal. Plus the lease price saved me 300 a month. I ordered the Ultimate package but is there anything I should add? The 19 inch wheels were great I was worried that if I upgraded to a 20 inch the ride would be harsh. Any thoughts?

I've had my MKS since July and assumed that Ford would be able to figure out how to add a remote starter to the MKS with push button ignition. No such luck! Dealer says it will be another 6 months...meanwhile I am freezing my butt off in Michigan. Would it make sense to take it to an aftermarket installer and hope they don't tap into the main electrical? If you're thinking about getting the MKS, stick with the key and tumbler!!!

If you leave the front defrost on when you last get out of the car at night, you can have the heater clear your windshield for you, with out stepping outside. Or at least warm up the glass so the ice comes right off, instead of having to chip away at it for 5 minutes. |
