The rest, not so much.]]>Jan 4th 2008 2:34PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/
Didn't Mitsubishi try this "melted snozz" look a few years ago and almost fall off the sales map with it? It's too bad whoever in Ford design thought this grille was a good idea can't be held accountable. That guy's a tool.

I predict lackluster Lincoln sales for the full five year design cycle, sadly. I guess since the interior's nice, it's a good option for people who never walk back to their car, who never have to see the exterior. Maybe it's aimed at sleepwalker/drivers.]]>Jan 5th 2008 11:07AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/Jan 5th 2008 6:20PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/Jan 4th 2008 2:36PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/
Now, I wonder when the Navigator loses its braces in favor if this look...]]>Jan 4th 2008 2:40PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/Jan 4th 2008 2:42PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/
Did you even read the article? It is a Taurus X body with a Linc grille. The whole thing looks to me like it is on the extended version of the D3 platform, which is what the Flex will ride on. The regular version is what the Taurus X (among others) uses.]]>Jan 4th 2008 8:06PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/Jan 4th 2008 10:44PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/Jan 4th 2008 2:43PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/Jan 4th 2008 2:47PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/Moooo !]]>Jan 4th 2008 2:50PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/It looks nothing like that and nothing like the Flex.]]>Jan 4th 2008 2:51PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/

It CLEARLY states is a Taurus X TEST MULE.

Probably testing cooling/airflow or something.

Sheesh.

BRING BACK THE MARAUDER!!!]]>Jan 4th 2008 3:05PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/
You must love that Ford announced (according to a previous post) that they want Lincoln to be the "volume leader" compared to Mercury. That is a total load of crap idea on their part. Ford should be #1 in their sales volume, Mercury should be #2, Lincoln should be #3 and very exclusive. ]]>Jan 4th 2008 3:11PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/Jan 4th 2008 3:15PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/spy-shots-ford-flex-based-crossover-for-lincoln/Jan 4th 2008 3:07PM
