First long distance drive with our 3 month old expedition max platinum. First the horn stops working, then the ford synch 3 Bluetooth cuts in and out and now the back latch on the trunk rattles non stop. 9000 miles on it.
Interesting nugget I heard yesterday...longish story but..,
I’m undecided on my next suv. I am not really excited by any of them so I’m probably going to go used and drive something for a year or two until I really know what I want. I very much like the navigator but the wife hates the back of it (I tend to agree). Anyway, I have a friend that runs a high end auto acquisition/consignment company (clients have him acquire high end cars for them). He is monitoring auctions for me to get a 2019 under 10k miles suv. Navigator and a few others are on his watch list.
He called me yesterday to update me and said that for whatever reason the majority of Lincoln’s he’s seeing are either 2.5 condition or below (mostly due to major cigarette smoke) or are buybacks/assisted trades.
Not sure why so many smoker vehicles but as far as buybacks go I’m chalking it up to first year (early second year) build bugs. Anyway, I thought it was interesting.
