    my NEW toy!!!

    I didn't know the 5.7 Ram had dual plugs and coils! Good thing they use Mopar coils and not Ford ones or I would be taking a second mortgage to keep it running. I have a 95 Chrysler LHS that has never had a coil go bad, unlike the Lincoln LS....

    my NEW toy!!!

    Nice Jeep. ditto. Even with the 432hp hemi, I have trouble believing the 3.8 seconds, 4.5 to 5 seconds sounds more realistic. Either way, it's, unfortunately, faster than my LS.

    Friend looking at a Lincoln LS

    Can the seller give you a list of items that have been fixed? Is it a perfect car? No, but closer than most. Does it have excessive maintenance/repair costs? My opinion is still - No.

    Friend looking at a Lincoln LS

    I would agree with everyone above but even with the few known common problems the LS is a very reliable car and definitely cheap now days. Very safe too. I doubt that your friend will be pushing it's power train, electronics, breaking, tires etc. like most of us probably do, so I vote yes get...

    What strange random events have you had with the LS?

    My code works for the door, but stupid me kept the card with the number in the glove box and I don't remember the code. Ever since I keep the number on my person so I can get in.

    Recommended Tires

    I bought Continental Pro Contacts just last month and love them (but not the price). I especially like the curved tread design on the edges that helps retain stability while cornering...

    What strange random events have you had with the LS?

    No phantom beeps yet, but my wife and I do believe there is a LS phantom out there. Every now and then our LS will lock itself. Once I stopped to gas up and left the key on the center console, as I was pumping the gas I heard the 'swosh' of the door locks. Had to get my wife to drive...

    I hadn't thought about it but on a line might be a problem because the PDR guy is basically poping the dent back out. Hope you can find someone that can do it.

    This posting got me motivated to try out the Dent Wizard. I've put it off for weeks but since we were discussing dints and dings I figured it was time to see if they are as good as they say on their web-site. The one I hired was. The second and third picture in Pektel posted earlier are...

    Yes, i stood right behind him and watched. He has a set of tools on long thin flat rods. For the door fix, he rolled the window down and placed the rod through that opening to get behind the ding and put pressure on it and work as much from the rear as he could. He then has a small rubber...

    Anyone else sign up for Fords Owner Advantage program?

    I just checked http://owneradvantagerewards.ford.com/ turns out all Lincoln dealers in my area except the one I use is a participating dealer. Looks like I might have to try another service department.
