What they did that was guaranteed fatal was offer bad product. Lincoln offered an SUV based on the Ford F-150 truck. So far so good, although the Navigator rides like the soft sprung truck it is. My question is why does it need an expensive four cam 32 valve motor? It is no more powerful than a pushrod motor the same size. 8000 rpm valve train on a 5000 rpm mill. The motor might look cool, but it so buried under accessories that you can barely see it. Two hours to change the plugs, not the two minutes a flathead takes. Luckily they look good after 100 000 miles. Casady "...attributable to bad management." |
