HERO CAR

I am selling my "Hero Car" why you ask is it called my "Hero Car"? 
Because this car is a tank and saved my life.

Driving along a stretch of Highway one evening, a fully loaded tractor trailer decided to pull out onto the same stretch of highway that I was driving on.

The semi driver crossed SEVEN lanes of traffic, and connected with the ONLY other vehicle on the road at that time.

The impact pushed the car off the side of the road and over an embankment of about 10 feet.

The impact was frightening, and hurt, but the car performed like a trooper, it did not need to be pulled out, I drove it out.

The semi driver said "I didn't see you until you honked your horn" at the time he sideswiped me.

If it were not for the ruggedness and craftsmanship of this car, I would not be here today.

The car may look like hell, but it runs and still rides like a Lincoln should.

The car drives remarkably well for all it has been through, it still has a wonderfully soft air ride, the interior is comfortable and roomy.

The battery has been removed, and the heater core was starting to leak when parked.  The car starts, but dies shortly afterward.  It was driven into the garage and parked there.

I was going to restore this car myself, but due to failing health, I am unable to do so.

So now it is someone else's turn to own a "Hero" car.  Who knows this car could just save your life too.

Lincoln MKC prototype spied out testing

Wed, 20 Mar 2013

As was the case with the Lincoln MKZ, it appears that Lincoln isn't wasting any time getting its newest model transformed from concept to production form. We just saw the MKC Concept earlier this year at the Detroit Auto Show, and based on these spy shots, it looks like the final touches are being put in place for the 2014 Lincoln MKC crossover.
Sharing its platform with the Ford Escape, we can definitely see some similarities between these two compact crossovers when it comes to the roofline and daylight opening, but through the heavy camouflage, Lincoln's signature split-wing grille can easily be seen and it looks like the concept's taillights will also make it to reality. On the disappointing side, it looks like the integrated exhaust outlets are being ditched for some round outlets, and we can't tell if the production version will keep the Audi-like clamshell rear liftgate.

One more Lincoln MKX concept teaser drops before Beijing

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

If the teaser video for Lincoln's launch of a new concept at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show wasn't enough for you, the company has now released a shadowy new image on its Twitter page. The vehicle may be a concept for the next-generation MKX, and its launch in China is part of the huge rollout to sell the brand's models there.
The latest photo shows off the concept's lighting, including LED running lights and lit sideview mirrors. The sharp edges of the lights give some hints to its shape. However, Other than clearly being a crossover, not much else is known.
The concept's launch supports Lincoln breaking into the Chinese market. It will begin selling the MKZ and MKC there this fall, as well as a midsize luxury SUV. A fullsize luxury sedan and the Navigator will come later. The company will also build luxury showrooms for the models that will look more like high-end hotel lobbies than car dealers. Scroll down to watch the teaser video.
