Hey did you ever get this issue figured out? I"m having the same kind of issues on an LS I"m restoring. Thanks
At least it was available to take over for the Town Car livery buyers. I'm really anxious to see what the new designs look like. This will be the first time in decades that Ford has made a concerted effort to make Lincoln competitive without other things getting in the way (Mercury, Jaguar, etc.).
The MKT's rear end is not what is holding back sales. It is because it looks like a station wagon. Wagons sell great in Europe, but most of the luxury wagons are no longer imported here, due to lack of interest. Americans for whatever reason want their CUVs to look more like SUVs than the traditional wagon. Never mind that they all ALL tall wagons! What does logic have to do with any of this? Perception is everything, and just as the Chrysler Pacifica, the Taurus X, the previous Cadillac SRX (they went for the CUV look this time around and sales have taken off), and even the Ford Flex looks more wagon-y than CUV-y...every one of these has suffered poor sales. The MKT also looks like a portly station wagon. Had they had the balls to introduce it in the controversial shape of the concept car that preceded it, the MKT may have had a chance at building a certain following. This was Lincoln's first clean sheet car under Mulally, and it turns out they would have been better off to just skip it, rather than issue such a watered down, slab sided design.
Of course, there's a butt for every seat, but IMO Lincoln won't be able to compete in today's market with a BOF offering (or rebadged lesser cars and weird variants). Caddy made a go of it with some fresh material.
The point is that GM made a go of it, and Ford likely has a luxury base that would still be attracted to Lincoln, if they don't starve the brand much longer.
