2008 Lincoln Mark LT Truck

Summary

Provided by NADAguides.com

With a �signature-Lincoln� front grille, the 2008 Mark LT boasts a powerful V8, a roomy cabin, leather seats and interior wood trim appointments. Available in a regular or an extended-bed body style, the 2008 Lincoln Mark LT is offered in either two or four wheel drive, with a standard 300 horsepower 5.4-liter gas-powered V8 with a 4-speed automatic transmission. The Mark LT carries with it a more luxuriously-equipped platform (hence, the Lincoln designation), and that luxury comes in the form of heated seats, keyless entry and a top-of-the-line audio system.

Benefits of Driving a 2008 Lincoln Mark LT Truck

The 2007 Lincoln Mark LT won praise from J.D. Power and Associates for Initial Quality, and as the full-sized luxury pickup truck is little changed for 2008, it's not a stretch to think it might take the award again. Though it is based on the Ford F-150, the Lincoln Mark LT has little competition as a luxury pickup, and it offers the versatility of a tough, go-anywhere workhorse with the added benefits of a comfortable boulevard cruiser.

What's new for 2008?

The 2008 Lincoln Mark LT is basically unchanged, though there are a few differences to note. Light French Silk Clearcoat Metallic joins the color chart, navigation and 20-inch wheels are now available, and a rear parking camera is a new option. Satellite radio is now standard and remote engine start can be installed at dealerships.

2008 Lincoln Mark LT: What's New

Source: The Car Connection

The Mark LT is a full-size, four-door luxury pickup based on the Ford F-Series. It offers roomy four-door cabin, plenty of features and a useful 5.5-foot (and optional 6.5-foot) cargo bed.

For the 2008 model year, all Mark LTs get standard Sirius satellite radio. New options for the '08 cycle include a rearview camera, a remote start system, and a Monochrome Appearance Package with a body-color grille surroud, body-color bumpers, and 20-inch, seven-spoke chromed wheels.

Powertrains and trim levels otherwise carry over for '08. Under the hood, the same 5.4-liter V-8 engine with electronic throttle control and 300 horsepower returns with a maximum rated towing capacity of 8900 pounds. A four-speed automatic transmission is the standard transmission.

The Mark LT's suspension has been softened up relative to the F-Series to provide a smoother ride in both rear- and four-wheel drive versions. Four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution are standard.

Safety Ratings What do the Safety Ratings mean? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) performs independent crash testing of new vehicles and then assigns them a score based on their performance. The overall crash test rating is based on how a vehicle performs in the following tests: Driver Crash Grade: Measures the chance of a serious injury to a crash test dummy that is placed in a driver's seat and driven into a fixed barrier at 35 MPH. A five-star rating means there is 10 percent or less chance of injury. Passenger Crash Grade: Similar to the driver crash grade, only now the focus is on the passenger. Rollover Resistance: Simulates an emergency lane change to measure the likelihood of a vehicle rolling over. A five-star rating means there is 10 percent or less risk of rollover. Side Impact Crash Test - Front: Focuses on the front side of a vehicle. It simulates crashes that can occur in intersections by striking a 3,015-pound weight against the side of a vehicle at 38.5 MPH. A five-star rating means there is 5 percent or less chance of injury. Side Impact Crash Test - Rear: Similar to the front side impact test only now the focus is on the rear passenger.

Original Warranty Original Warranty An original warranty is the warranty associated with a vehicle when it is brand new. In addition to the original warranty, select items, like tires, are typically covered by respective manufacturers. Also, an act of Federal law sometimes provides protection for certain components, like emissions equipment. The original warranty is often broken down into multiple sections, including: Basic Warranty: Typically covers everything except for parts that wear out through normal use of the vehicle. Examples of non-covered items are brake pads, wiper blades and filters. Drivetrain Warranty: This warranty covers items the basic warranty does not protect. Wear and tear items such as hoses will not be covered, but key items like the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft often will be. Roadside Assistance: The level of service differs greatly with this warranty, but many manufacturers offer a toll-free number that helps provide assistance in case you run out of gas, get a flat tire or lock your keys in the car. Corrosion Warranty: This warranty focuses on protecting you from holes caused by rust or corrosion in your vehicle's sheet metal. Please check the owner's manual, visit a local dealership or look at the manufacturer's website to learn more about the specifics of the warranties that apply to a vehicle.	Miles	Months
Basic	50,000	48
Drivetrain	70,000	72
Corrosion	0	60

Lincoln Certified Pre-Owned Warranty Certified Pre-Owned Warranty To be eligible for Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) status, vehicles generally must be recent models with relatively low mileage. CPO vehicles must also pass a detailed inspection, outlined by the manufacturer, which is measured by the number of inspected points. Warranty coverage can vary from one manufacturer to the next. While most certified pre-owned programs transfer and extend the existing new car warranty terms, others offer a warranty that simply represents an additional year and mileage value. Always check with the manufacturer for the specific warranties they offer. Common features and benefits of Certified Pre-Owned warranties include: Age/Mileage Eligibility To even be considered for certification, a car must be a recent model year and have limited mileage. The exact requirements are established by individual manufacturers. Lease Term Certified Some manufacturers offer certified pre-owned cars for lease. The length of the lease is often shorter than a new car lease, but it will cost you less. Point Inspection These inspections entail a comprehensive vehicle test to ensure that all parts are in excellent working order. The point inspection list is simply a numbered list of exactly what parts of the car are examined. While many inspections range from a 70- to 150-point checklist, most are very similar and are performed using strict guidelines. Ask your local dealer about specific details. Return/Exchange Program Some manufacturers offer a very limited return or exchange period. Find out if you will get the sales tax and licensing/registration fees back should you return or exchange the car. Roadside Assistance Most certified pre-owned programs offer free roadside service in case your car breaks down while still under warranty. Special Financing Reduced-rate loans are available through many certified pre-owned programs. Manufacturer-backed inspections and warranties help eliminate the risks involved with buying pre-owned, so buyers who qualify can take advantage of the great offers. Transferable Warranty When a new car warranty transfers with the certification of the car and remains eligible for the next owner, it is known as a transferable warranty. Once the original transferable warranty expires, an extended warranty takes effect. Warranty Deductible This is the amount for which you are responsible when repair work is performed under the warranty. Some manufacturers require a deductible while others don't, so always ask.
