Well said. The line-up of Lincolns (each of which is exactly the same platform and drivetrain as its Ford sibling) are fine machines. The problem is the Fords. They too are fine machines and cost less equally equipped. What Lincoln does not have is a rear drive platform, or a powerful V8. All-wheel drive added to a front drive platform is fine for a commuter car, but for a special, premium make, rear drive sells. See Caddy. Trying to work from the old Volvo S80 platform will not take Lincoln much further. Rebadging Fusions has not worked. Sadly perhaps, Hyundai makes the best rear drive, V8 full size car in the world for under $50K (profitably).
