2010 Lincoln mks: luxury family car.
My 2010 Lincoln mks is a great luxury family car. I can fit 3 car seats across the back seat comfortably. The trunk has plenty of storage for everything my family needs. I really enjoy the dual sun/moon roof combo the covers the majority of the roof. The audio system is crazy, with more than enough speakers to pump out the jams.

Lincoln mks; the underrated car of the decade.
Love this car, great mileage, most comfortable car I have ever driven. Holds up really well, drives smooth, lots of space all helps to make the price tag worth it! While it's not incredibly fast, the naturally aspirated v6 in the AWD form can really get up and running when need be. Tons of luxury inside the vehicle as well, including a touch screen, heated and cooled seats, double panel sunroof, heated seats in the back, as well as high definition thx speakers with Bluetooth. The driver seat moves when you enter and exit the vehicle, it is push to start, and the headlights move when you turn your wheel. Although parts and service is extremely inflated, this is a great choice for a safe reliable, and overall comfortable car that is not too flashy.

It is a great car with lots of high tech gadgets.
Had problems with my turbos and engine. Replace a new engine runs great. Car is very comfortable and spacious which is great for me because I am tall and there's still room in the back seat. Car is really fast, I have an Ecoboost engine. It is fully loaded has GPS, Bluetooth connection, heated and cool seats, panoramic sunroof, and back window sun screen.

The 2010 Lincoln mks is a great vehicle for Wisconsin winters.
The 2010 Lincoln mks has all wheel drive so it handles great in the Wisconsin snow. It is fully loaded with all the features and is super comfortable to ride in. The heated seats are another great luxury to have in the winter. The trunk has plenty of cargo space.

It retains value and is reliable.
Smooth ride, plenty of get up and go, not too bad on gas. It is a beautiful vehicle. We have had a couple of issues with sunroof.

It is a great running, well-rounded vehicle.
I love the body of my vehicle as well as the interior. I enjoy the smooth ride. I like that it has four doors. I like the nsync program that allows me to tell the vehicle things to do such as phone a person, change the climate and navigate me to a location with which I am unfamiliar.

Timeless, classic luxury at It's finest!
Love the luxury of the mks, however, over time, the rear shade starts to get stuck and creates a thumping noise when it is put in reverse. It costs dearly to correct this but is worth it. It is all about luxury in this car, the looks, ride, and style are very classy. I chose the tan camel leather interior with the mahogany trim, and Bose stereo system. This is my baby and is cared for as so.

It is very good in the snow and ice. It does have some very large and inconvenient blind spots.
I love the all wheel drive. I really like the sunroof and moonroof. I really wish all the windows were tinted.

A great car until the repair costs outweigh its value.
This car has been amazing until about a year ago. Other than the driver's seat being incredibly uncomfortable during long distance car rides, it was a comfortable car that felt luxurious to ride in. I also had very few problems with it, until I began to suddenly have many problems. About a year ago it began having problems due to age, and the costs to fix even the most minor problems are astronomical compared to other vehicles. The average cost to fix any of the issues with the car outweigh the value of it now. If someone can afford to spend $3000 anytime the car needs a minor repair, I do not think it would be a problem but if you are financially tight on money this vehicle is not a good choice down the road.

That you may have a vacuum leak
I like the style. I like the color. When I first go the car it had a very smooth drive. Now I am having problems with a vacuum leak which makes the ride a little rougher
