Nice video! I just wish Ford would bring back the Lincoln Town Car. This MKT is not that attractive. And the proof is in the numbers. Only about 7,000 of these sell per year compared to the Town Car which sold about $20,000+ per year.

The MKT looks better as a limo than it does as production. I think it has the perfect limo profile and doesn't look ridiculously stretched out like the town car did. It's almost as though they designed this car knowing that many of them would be turned into limos

I'm so disgusted with what Lincoln has done with their product line. They took away the Town Car, a staple in the limousine business. I have owned 5 town car's since the 90s. Now I don't even know what MKwhatever I see on the streets. The only way to tell it is a Lincoln is by getting close enough to see the Lincoln emblem. Now they've brought the Continental back. I'm not impressed. Bring the Town Car back. Cadillac is also confusing with their CT, EXwhatever. The only thing I know for sure is that an Escalade is still a Cadillac. I own a 2011 Cadillac DTS, and it still feels and looks like a Cadillac. Unfortunately like Lincoln did in the same year is drop the DTS and Lincoln dropped the Town Car. Sigh.

"Bring the Town Car back" I've heard that they're going to; I haven't heard a time frame. (I used to manage a small "special services" limousine company, and also worked for a large Dav El affiliate. I left to pursue another career just as the Town Car was being retired from Ford's lineup. When they introduced the so-called MKT "Town Car" and said it was in response to requests from the livery industry I could only shake my head in disgust and think "Who'd you talk to?")

Whats the point of making a "MKT (NOT Town Car) Limousine"? Why not just use a Navigator, this is useless its not a town car, its ugly, you might as well put your effort into making a Ford Escape a limo, because thats what it is.

I'm not an expert with engineering cars but here's what I think could be done to transform a standard everyday family sedan into a limousine!!! so please bear with me & correct me if I'm wrong!!! say you want to make a 2020 Cadillac CT6-V Limited i-TRAC AWD 6.2 t-Turbo V8 4-Dr Luxury Sedan (LHD) into a 38.3 in. stretched limousine!!! you need to procure 2 pre owned or lightly damaged Cadillac CT6-V Limited i-TRAC AWD 6.2 t-Turbo V8 4-Dr Luxury Sedan (LHD) from a scrap yard, one that hasn't been scrapped as yet!!! cut out the mid floor section including the full B-Pillar from the 2 donor Cadillac CT6-V Limited i-TRAC AWD 6.2 t-Turbo V8 4-Dr Luxury Sedan (LHD) & weld each other to the length you intend to stretch!!! and then weld the new floor section back onto the front & rear section of the car that you've already cut out for the stretch!!! agreed it's a time consuming complex job but it's worth the effort & money!!! please advise!!!
