We take the all-wheel-drive Lincoln to Subaru country.
Family-friendly features
Benny clearly liked the 2010 Lincoln MKT’s massive sunroof. Actually, Benny liked how he could stand on the wide front center armrest and stick his head out of the sunroof. That particular feature doesn’t fall into the family-friendly category, though the rear glass roof panel did provide a clear view of the sky and all that happened above us. The verdict’s out on whether that was more entertaining for the kids or adults.
Passengers of all ages approved of the nifty cooler located between the second row’s optional bucket seats. After attempting to drink a Vitamin Water slushy, I found the button that sets the temperature to cool or freeze. Consider that a lesson learned. My MKT test car also included sunscreens for the side windows, and a touch-screen navigation system with real-time weather information that helped us determine if we were headed into or out of rain (very handy when you’re attempting to take kids to the park).
