Overview & Reviews

The 2008 Lincoln MKX receives the new Sync electronics interface system. Also, former options are now standard equipment, including reverse parking sensors, satellite radio, and heated and cooled seats with memory. Voice activation is added to the optional navigation system. A pair of special edition appearance packages is also now available.

• Comfortable and quiet ride, lots of standard features, spacious passenger quarters.

• Poor braking distances, smallish cargo capacity, low-grade interior materials, rock-hard front seats, no dynamic advantage over the Ford Edge.

  Lincoln Fan - 2008 Lincoln MKX
  By Elliott Dahle - December 12 - 6:10 pm

  I have 2,000 miles on my 2008 MKX. I have the front wheel drive with both the Ultimate & elite packages. Car gets a lot of compliments. Fun to drive, smooth ride, no problems. Vapor Silver color is very sharp. Technology is impressive and works very well. Panoramic sunroof is like a convertible. Gas mileage a little less than what I hoped for but much better than my Aviator. I compared to MDX, RX 350 & new Murano - this is best ride and value for the money. Ford Lincoln Mercury got it right this time!!

  Very Nice! - 2008 Lincoln MKX
  By K & S Sheets - April 29 - 2:40 am

  The MKX is our second Lincolon product and third Ford product. Traded in our 2005 Aviator, which we loved, for the MKX. Which we love even more! Ford/L makes a great product. Its really sad to see all the negative press that our American car manufactures recieve. I, for one, dont get it. We looked around at all the alternatives in the crossover market and found the MKX hard to beat. Now that we have been driving it for two weeks, we are extremely satisfied. Great ride, very nice and comfortable intererior,great sound & toys and what a great sunroof! Fantastic! Next best thing to having a convertable. Well done Ford/Licoln. If youre looking for a new crossover, we highly recommended this one

  Love my MKX - 2008 Lincoln MKX
  By Kat - April 11 - 6:06 am

  This is an easy crossover to love. Excellent acceleration and power curve. Great visibility. Glorious sunroof! This great machine handles like a dream come true with the ultimate package with its 20 inch wheels. Great steering feel and a quiet cabin. The interior and controls are well thought out and very comfortable. Brakes are better than people say but have some progressive fade. Body roll is minimal for the height of the vehicle. My husband is 6,5" and is comfortable driving. Styling is fine and its very easy on the eyes! All in all we love our MKX!

  Top Notch - 2008 Lincoln MKX
  By dontblink - March 4 - 6:22 am

  After several horrible experiences with European vehicles, I decided to buy domestic again. I dig the clean crisp styling, strong stance, & front grill reminiscent of Lincolns past. The ride is firm yet comfortable, it handles well, & mileage is decent. The sound system is great. The clutter free instrumentation with retro gauges is pleasing. The cabin is roomy with plenty of cargo space. Quality leather seats are comfortable. Fit & finish is top notch inside & out. It could benefit from a rear view backup camera. The silver painted interior plastic looks like silver painted plastic. I really like the MKX, it is safe, stylish, reliable, & comfortable. It will likely be a favorite of ours.

  MKX in Minnesota - 2008 Lincoln MKX
  By Mike in Minnesota - January 29 - 1:33 am

  Have owned ten or more SUVs in the past 25 years, many costing far more. The MKX is the best in build quality, ride, comfort, and features. Very tight and quiet.

  Nice CUV - 2008 Lincoln MKX
  By Kenny - December 18 - 1:43 am

  Leased my 08 MKX now for a month and it is a pretty good vehicle. I have enjoyed driving it. I get lots of compliments on the looks of the MKX. The car is comfortable to drive and generally easy to manuever. Read below about the brakes. Powerful THX soundsystem is awesome. Roomy for passengers. Overall, I can recommend this vehicle. It just needs to fix a couple things to be considered an elite gotta have vehicle.

  Fantastic - 2008 Lincoln MKX
  By dsw - November 3 - 7:23 am

  Researched and drove a number of crossovers before purchasing the Lincoln MKX. The MKX was quieter and handled better than the Lexus RX 350. The MKX, in my opinion, is a better value-offering more options and toys than many other similar crossovers. While the MKX is slightly longer than the 2008 RX 350, the new 2009 RX 350 will be 5" longer in 2009 and a new design. While some have complained that the MKX seats are too firm ,we actually like the firmness.The Ford Sync and the navigation systems are fantastic. Very user friendly. Climate controls are extremely easy to use and uncluttered. Great acceleration. Brakes are a little soft. Gas mileage somewhat disappointing so far, but all SUVs are

  We Love This SUV - 2008 Lincoln MKX
  By Cynthia - July 8 - 4:10 am

  This is our first purchase of a Ford factory car and now we would consider another Lincoln at a later date. We enjoy driving this SUV because it is not too big or too small. It is very well built, good looking and has the feel of luxury. People are constantly saying that they like the way it looks and ask us how it drives. We tell them it has a very smooth drive and that it has terrific features.
