I'm looking at a 2008 Mark LT too. The seat leather is better quality than my Lariat. The wood trim is real, not plastic. It seems quieter so maybe it has more sound deadening. The one I'm looking at is $45k. It has nav, rear camera and just about every other option. I can get it for $30k. Thats $4k less that I paid for my 06 Lariat. Here is a pic of the one I'm looking at.
I went with the King Ranch last year. I liked the Lincoln...but I LOVED the KR seats. I had a women the other day cream her panties over my seats. She was driving a Mercedes
If I had not been married...I would have inquired if the wanted to feel the seats with her bare ***...

to keep them from getting stolen...
you say f150 vs a lt....what f150 are you talking about...i see lariat and king ranch listed above, but i got the best of the bunch.
i looked at a lt before i got my harley. the harley is the best looking and has everything but the power steps....the harley interior is the nicest of all the f series trucks, some will claim the king ranch is, but the king ranch is common and only comes in two tone colors...all the door panels, dash, and fake wood (must have changed it for the 2008 if its not fake any more) is the same as the other lariats. the harley is the only one with all black carpet, headliner, dash (with harley specific guages), the only one that come supercharged as an option, other cues are harley only...like the grill is harley only, the tail lamps are harley only, the no step running boards harley only, the head lights are harley only (the fx2 and fx4 lux are flat black and harley are shinny black---if you see them side by side you will see the harleys are better) the list goes on and on...you would have to see one in person and sit inside to see it, the king ranch is not the top of the line and the limited is an attempt at a white harley, but still falls short of a harley, the light color interior of a limited will be trashed if you have kids.

It would look a lot better if those big fugly Mark Lt badges were not there. If you buy it make the dealer take them off as part of the deal.

I will throw this out there....I was told by two different Salesmen at two different Lincoln dealers that the Mark LT is built on a F250 Frame.
Any Facts to support or to dispute this clam?
I have an 08 Mark LT so if there is any info needed for comparison I will be willing to help to see if this claim is Salesman BS or truth.

The computer is the same, better warranty, 4 years 50k bumper to bumper plus most LM dealers give a free weekly car wash and the customer TLC is better since most LM dealers carry te Jag line as well!

Your Salesman is full of it.... The frames for the F-150 and Mark LT are the same. Structural the Trucks are Identical. The only differences are cosmetic.

Hey I just bought a 2006 Mark Lt & I love it! My father has the Lariat & it is a step up as others have said. Dont buy new I bought mine for $21K through the auction & its spotless with only 32K mile on it. 2 years ago it sold for $45K what a big difference!
