Long story short my wife is pregnant and we wanted a 3 row luxury suv to cart baby and out of town visitors in one car. I looked at xc90, q7 and I couldn't justify the cost of a used one. $30-$40k for a used one out of warranty. I thought i should look into Lincoln and came across the MKT. Not our favorite looking car of the bunch but my wife was fine with it. What really drew me in was the depreciation and getting a lightly used car for so far below MSRP.
I ended up getting a 2018 with 21,000 miles for $26,000 from a dealer auction (friend has his license). $500 to ship $500 auction fee. It ended up coming with a little damage which is costing $900 to fix but still think I got a great deal. Tech package, elite package, captains chairs. It's only missing the roof that opens, 2nd row cooler, and screens in headrests. MSRP was $55k.
Now onto my questions.
How do i activate front parking sensors? When I pull forward while parking we do not get an audible beeps or warnings. When I back into a spot I get those.
Any good solutions to add entertainment to the rear head rests? Something I could plug HDMI into. Doesnt have to be controlled from the front.
What do I need to buy to add dvd in motion and entering addresses on the front screen while in motion? Or add more video capabilities.
Does a k&n filter add more turbo noise with the stock air box?
Thats it for now. Dropping car off today for the light body work and should have it back in two days.
