best suv/crossover I could find

I looked at a lot of SUV and crossovers and I liked the MKX best. The combo of style, performance, and features made it easy to "buy American." I like how it drives; more of a sedan feel rather than a truck- like drive. Cooled seats in Texas set it apart from all the others. I really like the Ipod hookup, satellite radio, nav system, and hands free phone functions. And they are all integrated & work perfectly. I averaged 19 mpg for the 36k miles I had it; and the 6 cyl had plenty of zip. Only negative is that the battery died after 2 years but the quick response I got from the dealer made up for even that one negative. I am spoiled and will not go back to a lesser vehicle.

I've owned this vehicle for 5 years and have put 150K miles on it. This car is not only stylish, but extremely reliable with only basic maintenance required. I could be happier with my purchase, worth every dollar.

Bought this new and thought I’d get tired of it early on. Have driven this car across country many times, and have grown to love it. Would definitely buy another one, but I think I’m going to keep this one for a few more years. It’s that good!!! Finally retired the old girl, but it’s still on the road

Purchased an used 08 Mkx after letting go My town car which makes this my third Lincoln product. I love the styling both inside and out it has a very nice appearance. The car is smooth and quiet, has a great ride, handles well at high and low speed's . The versatility of this vehicle allows me to do whatever I need from going out on the town in style or towing and moving items in the large interior space . I enjoy the simplicity of the interiors dash uncluttered look. The rear seats that recline or a nice option for passengers. The Vesta sunroof is a wonderful option when driving gives you a very comfortable open air feel to the cabin from front to back . The car allows you to make Road trips drive for 12 to 14 hours and not feel cramped and uncomfortable . The car feels heavy and substantial in highway driving sticks to the road makes you feel in control of what you were doing. I love this vehicle and would buy it again.

I bought this car a little later in its life, got it used in 2017 with 58,000 miles on it. Man, it’s still in the race though with luxury cars that have came out years ahead and even in to now. I think the vehicle even in 2018 looks very stylish and up to date, the features it has are also still very current and practical. The sync system works well even with my iPhone 8 and the navigation system has always been able to direct me to any place I needed to go. I feel like Lincoln as a brand has gotten a lot of negative attention in terms of not being a “real” luxury brand. Honestly I feel like this vehicle was miles ahead of any Cadillac that came out in 2008 or even in to today. The only feature I wish I had was a reverse camera but the parking sensors help out nicely. I have about 69,000 miles on it now and have had no problems at all. I think this car is for sure one that is worth a look, especially pre-owned.
