I love my car! But, if you are taller than 5'9" you will be 'short' on leg room. There is not a lot of leg room for taller people in the front passenger seat or the rear seats. It is so comfortable to drive, the handling is great, the get-up and go is fantastic! The cons for me were the touch screen and the MPG. I find all touch screens to be distracting while driving. I am not a fan of any touchscreen, but this one was easy to use. I have learned through research that the MPG is average for a vehicle with a motor like this. I absolutely love the remote start and automatic ac/heat/defrost settings. The extra bells and whistles of wireless phone connection, Bluetooth, MP3/USB ports are wonderful. My only big con is leg room for taller people. I am 5'3" tall and I love how I sit up while driving and felt like I could control this vehicle very well. Visibility was great. Getting in and out of this car is great--I don't have to climb up and out. This car has power and a luxury, sporty feel to it.

Super Comfortable SUV

This Lincoln would have been rated perfectly in every category but the controls are frustrating to me. I know they look sleek but they aren’t functional. The slide idea doesn’t work nearly as well as a knob does!!! Other than that it is a fabulous ride!

Mytouch gone wrong

Ok looks good. Feels good. But I believe I am part of the first recall with locking problem. In addition the technology of the car would be amazing if it did infact work. The phone will not sync with bluetooth. The navigation locks up. The rear camera blacks out in a regular basis and the only fix Lincoln has at this time is temporary. The disconnect the car battery for ten minutes to reset system. I have had the car for about 2 weeks now and the car mytouch system has failed at least 6 times and the temporary fix has lasted 5 day at most. The promise of a fix has been delayed twice now. Customer service at both ford and the dealership is lacking. This has been a issue ford was aware of.

nice vehicle except shoddy build quality

Engine has plenty of power. Comfortable seats, Ride is quiet and comfortable on smooth roads but gets a little harsh on bumpy roads (probably due to the 20" wheels). Rims are not chrome plated aluminum as stated, seems to be some type of wheel cover over alum rim. Overall build quality is substandard. Doors and tailgate do not line up properly. Center A/C vent not installed properly is crooked. Rain sensing wipers occasionally wipe when no water is present. Bluetooth is unreliable with my Blackberry which is on the MYSYNC compatible list. This is my 18th new vehicle and first Ford. Overall I'm disappointed and would probably go back to Cadillac or Mercedes next time

I love this car!!! I bought it pre-owned in November 2014 with only 15k on the clock. Let me say that this is the most stunning, elegant vehicle I will ever own. It corners like a freakin' racecar-I never expected that!! Best bang for the buck with interior features (ambient lighting, heated steering wheel, air cond' seats, incredible THX sound, plus really advanced MyTouch system with gas prices, weather, sports scores, etc) are all extremely useful. I have the 20" chrome wheels and LOVE them. STUNNING car. Lots of safety+ power, very refined! Power fold 3rd row. Sure as hell beats that ugly triangular SRX thing from "Cadi(chevy)llac." Will only buy Lincolns from now on. Best car out there!
