The Mark LT is a luxury pickup truck from Lincoln. It first went on sale in January 2005 for the 2006 model year. The Mark LT replaced the failed 2002-only Lincoln Blackwood, Lincoln's only other pickup truck.

The Mark LT is priced at US$43,495 and the company hopes to sell 13,000 annually in the United States. This price is significantly lower than its only real competitor, the Cadillac Escalade EXT. The Mark LT has been more successful than the Blackwood in its first year of sales, with 10,274 sold in the first calendar year of sales, February 2005 through February 2006. The Mark LT is outselling the Escalade EXT by a slight margin, but the redesigned 2007 model Cadillac is expected to outperform the Lincoln.

The Mark LT is based on the Ford F-150 pickup truck. It uses the same 5.4 L Triton V8 and has four doors. Traction control is available for 2006 Lincoln Mark LT's. The 2006 Lincoln Mark LT still uses a 4 speed automatic transmission just like the 2006 Ford F-150's.

Recent Changes

• For 2010, the Mark LT soldiers on for the Central and South American markets, where they have been Lincoln's top seller (especially in Mexico) even though the Luxury Pick-up tanked in its home market, with a facelift that brings it into line with Lincoln's MKR-inspired corporate face. The grille now sports Lincoln's split-grille nose, headlights from the F150 SVT Raptor, and new taillights. Otherwise, it remains unchanged.[1]

Reliability

• RECALL ALERT: On June 05, 2008, Ford issued a recall affecting 605,684 Ford F-150s and Lincoln Mark LTs built between MY2005-2006 and equipped with 5.4L 3-Valve V8s due to a faulty brake booster vacuum supply hose which may swell and lose retention force, a condition that could allow the hose to become detached from the fitting during an intake manifold backfire. Once this happens, the vehicle's power assist braking will be gone though Ford is quick to note basic braking will still be available. The recall is set to begin on July 7, 2008 and Ford urges all owners to have their vehicles turned in for repairs to their local dealer. [2]
