I couldn’t decide between the ‘08 Signature L and the ‘07 Designer, so I bought both of them.

They’re a little dirty at the moment. Getting them cleaned up this weekend. Post a picture of your Town Car in the comments.

BlueCruise question

I’ve asked this before but now with more time it still doesn’t make sense. I bought a new 2025 Aviator Reserve II in Jan of this year (was a demo). BlueCruise turns on seemingly randomly on the highway when in cruise control. Meaning, I drive the same 40min route three times a week and it rarely comes on. There doesn’t seem to be any correlation between traffic patterns or weather. And I say it only comes on about 10% of the time I’m in cruise control. Why? I have it free through Jan 1, 2030 so I’ve got it for a long time. But why would some purchase it if it’s that “unreliable?” And I know it’s not supposed to come on each time you are in cruise control, and that it actively reads the environment around you for when to turn it on, but just seems like in my case pretty premature to bring something to market when it’s used that little. When it turns on I’m surprised and had forgotten I even had it!

Rebates for 2027s?

My local dealer has a 2027 Aviator on order that checks all the boxes. Won't be in for a month or more. In the meantime there are no rebates or specials available (according to him and what I read) plus, the finance rate is 7.5%. I can do much better at the credit union.

I'm not a highly motivated buyer, but these options on a 26 or 25 have been very difficult to find.

Anyone out there can predict what Lincoln may do in the next 30-60 days? Dealer would not speculate, but there has to be a pattern going into the end of the year.
