  1. huh.. a MKZ hybrid... I had a 2016 MKZ hybrid.. fantastic vehicle.. I only traded because I wanted 4WD.. and a hybrid.. so ended up with an Escape hybrid.. BUT I missed my Lincoln.. and the difference between my Escape and the Corsair GT (2021).. wow.. I have definitely liked mine.. highly recommend the Corsair!  no real changes between the 21 and 22.. only changes in packages.. so far I have NO problems.. got it in October (ordered in June.)

  2. sounds like all 3 of us were built together.. Mine came in yesterday.. coming up from Louisville to MN drop point and then to the dealer.. after being built on 9/22.. now to get a renewed trade in value.. even tho I did buy a 2020 Escape Titanium Hybrid.. but I missed my Lincoln..so .. we will see.. but the 2.5 in the escape runs great and will have it in the lincoln..

  3. My window sticker also is now available with production date showing 9/14... although when clicking the check mark it shows n/a.. I also got access to an invoice... but who knows when it will be "finished"... noticed on cars.com a dealer in FL has one in stock.. so.. maybe they are finally getting out... 

     

    I noticed on the sticker at the very top.. above the green area.. it has a blend date..  120210921 and under the  0921 in small letters it says blend.. I think this may be the final finish date??.. the date below the window sticker always changes to the current day.. My best guess.. and I am stickin to it! ?

  4. yes... got the  answer from ford... they did eliminate the chance to change colors..so we can have any color we want...as long as it is Ice Blue.. after having a Lincoln... gotta say to my new ride...it ain't a Lincoln... still pretty fun to drive and play with...

  5. One other thing that is changing.. I owned a 2010 fusion hybrid and a 16 MKZ hybrid.. loved 'em both.. but being in MN sometimes the snow piles.. Anyway when Ford came out with the 20 Escape both with a hybrid and All wheel drive I bit... no more leaves growing.. and no little green car with the arrows.. just a green  "ready" message..  the new center screens are pretty cool..

    what really is an eye opener.. only because of owning my Lincoln is how the "critics" say ahh a MKZ is a glorified ford, buy a ford and save the money... NO.. there are touches I miss that Ford does not have... I guess it was time to move on.. just my observations and yes seems they decontent as the years go on...

  6.  I have the 2020 Escape Hybrid Titanium..  and have searched, even though it says it is in the center stack screen , where do you change the colors for the ambient lighting .. I see the icon and in it shows how to intensify the light but nothing about color change..

    anyone else have an idea?

  7. I too got my 2020 hybrid on Tuesday... and  have the noise.. BUT there was a ford made video about a noise that the hybrid would make because of no motor sound when it comes to a place where pedestrians may be.. I would assume the same for backing up.. it does of course help the low vision people to let them know there is a vehicle.. I have had 3 ford hybrids and guess it is a safety issue..makes sense.. now that I have driven it and have used the heads up display and adaptive cruise.. definitely a keeper.. and a nice ride...

     

    Rick ..

  8. I don't understand... I ordered mine 6/28.. hybrid Titanium.. Sedona orange.. loaded but not unsual... first it got delayed til the week of Sept 30.. then to day of Oct 22, then to week of Nov 4...then  Nov 6... then Nov 21.. then week of Dec 2.. then to day of Dec 5..now to week of Dec 9  and day of Dec 14...  they have been released and plenty are built.. I don't understand... maybe they know I work for a dealer and wanna make me wait.. which I am and getting to be a bummer... anyone have any ideas why?  maybe dealer size so retail orders get bumped? ho hum....

    Rick.

  9. That is true.. if the badge was changed to say some company with a  T or H on it.. the best ever.. but if Ford, or Lincoln..no good.. I have a 16 MKZ hybrid.. heard the critics say warmed over ford..NOT… liked the looks better and a few options not even available on a ford.. but.. they drive a vehicle for maybe a day or 2.. and are expert on it.. sad..very sad..

    but just like movie critics.. personal opinions...that is it..

  10. The hybrids are comin out slow.. and the same with the mileage estimates.. I noticed now my birth date went from 10/22 to 11/18.. (I can watch the progress..work at a dealer..)  I now have my second hybrid (09 fusion) and now a 16 MKZ hybrid.. Neve, ever had problems, but wanted 4wd with a hybrid.. not because of being green, I like to save some on gas and the tech..
