Lincoln MKX – Wardlaw’s Opinion:
Our Lincoln MKX tester reminded me of a giant rolling marshmallow: white, soft, pudgy, with rounded amorphous edges. My wife-to-be, who owns a Nissan product similar to the MKX, called it utterly forgettable. That’s good, because it means the Linc didn’t offend her sensibilities. That’s bad, because anyone with a pulse strives for something more than anonymity. I liked the THX sound system with Sirius satellite radio, the panoramic sunroof, and the powertrain. I didn’t like the amount of squat, dive, and roll the MKX dished out during my commute. At $44K and change, I also expect more than a Ford Edge with a different grille and dashboard. Personally, I’d buy an Acura MDX or even a Saturn Outlook before this Lincoln.
