This is a really great car.
I got the car used so it is kind of old but the car still runs very good. I like the way it alerts you when you are close to something from behind and in the front. Saved me a few times from a head on collision. Not that bad on gas and still runs good after 200,000 miles. Very comfortable seats I feel like it is made for travel.

I love the GPS built in and touch display.
I do like this vehicle has room for everyone just not very smartly I have to take out kids car seat just to get to the back to the back. Other than that I do not have anything other than that I love this cars gas mileage is also great and the look of it is sleek.

Lincoln mkt, great for short people.
I like the adjustable pedals because I am 5ft tall. The combination of the telescoping steering wheel along with the adjustable pedals allows me to sit far enough from the steering wheel to be comfortable and feel safe from the airbag. I also enjoy the heated and cooled seats. I find it annoying that I cannot remove Sirius radio from my screen even though I do not subscribe to it, and then I touch it by mistake and I have to then close the option,etc. I think the nitrogen tires are unnecessary.

My dream car, a personal batmobile!
My car is the first, and probably last, vehicle I purchased exactly how I wanted it, without settling. It lived up to my dream! It is beautiful, powerful, and reliable. It is safe. It is comfortable. There were mechanical issues (transmission) that took a few years to fully diagnose & repair, but since then, has run wonderfully. Now that it is almost 10 years old with over 100,000 miles on it, there is some cosmetic wear showing in the interior metallic mesh trim (peeling off); otherwise, it still looks and feels like a brand new modern car. I love it!

Fabulous family vehicle for five.
I love the heated and cooled seats. I love being able to "talk" to my car and allow it to make calls for me. It is beyond comfortable and fits my entire family. The cooler in the middle console in the back is perfect for my children. We often utilize the folded down back row for kayaks and large items that we need to pick up at the store. It is a perfect vehicle for our family.

Great family car with plenty of space!
I have had my mkt for 3 and a half years. I have put on 60,000 miles and have had no performance issues. It has proven to be a very reliable car for our family of 4! The seats are comfortable and easy to put down & back up. We have two children and car seats fit nicely, for the most part. There is adequate trunk space also. The third row seating is convenient when I need to haul my daycare children, and can easily be stowed for more room for groceries.

2011 Lincoln mkt car review.
We have had problems with the breaks in the past. They work, but you have to start hitting the breaks very early in order to not hit the car in front of you. Also, the transmission is weird in that when the car automatically shifts gears, it makes a really weird rattling sound and shifts in place. These problems could just be with our car, though, as we have had it for several years.
