md3184 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) yeah i have tried the "my media" in past, and the search does not return any results. What are you suppose to search for a file name? location? I assumed this function wasnt operational and there was another way to upload...I have a few pics of a couple pre-production models that were displayed at WHQ i wanted to share, but wasnt able too when I attempted some time back Edited February 4, 2013 by markd4864 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanner83 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Yes it's in reply section. Under "my media" I believe then search where the file you want to upload is. DUDE!!!! Congrats, I am excited for you. Please update with pictures and impressions!!! Don't stay up to late tonight driving around in your PJ's.....

You might have to link the picture from another file sharing site. It's different here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dedonut Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) Congratulations, Mark, it's starting. :-) The asterisk is a puzzle. I just looked at all the window stickers for MKZs in transit to the two main dealerships in this area. Whether it says Dealer Ordered or not, and no matter what the build date, they all have that footnote about the maintenance not being included when using a pin code. It'll be interesting to hear what my Sales Rep finds out tomorrow. Edited February 4, 2013 by Dedonut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMSgt B Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 My window sticker doesn't have an asterik next to the maintenance plan. Interesting...I'm A-plan too. I wonder if they changed policies (my sticker was generated a month or longer ago). On another note. My car is here! Picking up later tonight.I'll be sure to post pics...that is, if I can figure out how to upload images. Anyone know how to attach an image? Finally someone with a MKZ and what better person to get it first. Thanks for all your help and now go enjoy, after you load pics for us though... Upload them to photobucket.com and then send us a link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanner83 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Hey SGT, I think you missed it on your window sticker, I just pulled your sticker up and it has it. Where you are looking is on the right hand side about 3/4 of the way down the page. You will see a little number 1 next to the Lincoln Commitment Owner benefit package. If you look below that to see what the little 1 references it says excluded for buyers using a FIN code Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedonut Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) You're right, Tanner, it says FIN code, not PIN code. I hadn't enlarged the page and I assumed it said PIN (as in Pin #). Hmmm, wonder what FIN code is? Just sent the correction to my Sales Rep. Wonder how mark is doing? Lucky guy. :-) Edited February 5, 2013 by Dedonut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking forward to living vicariously through his pix til we get ours. I am still curious why I have the same build week as the majority but 2 weeks longer on the eta.

timf Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) FIN code sounds like it would refer to fleet vehicles. Makes sense that it would be excluded for fleets as they likely have separate maintenance departments or contracts.

Stentgraft95 Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 I like those wheels better than the ones with countless spokes but those don't come in 20.0"' do they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedonut Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) Beautiful, Mark, we're happy for you. LOL, did you see Tanner's comment last night to you? :-) And I agree about the wheels. I'm concerned about the black wheels that I can get and what they'll look like with the white car. I'm tracking my Dealer's inventory to see when mine shows up there as in-transit. It's in Hermosillo, built Jan. 31. Edited February 5, 2013 by Dedonut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgman Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Did you guys see this? Doesn't help my loss of trade value though, and I don't trust the dealer to handle this correctly. http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20130204/RETAIL07/302049933/lincoln-to-pay-dealers-for-mkz-delays#axzz2Ju7OuDZV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedonut Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I forwarded it to my Sales Rep. She said she can't believe that I get information before she does. What this doesn't take into account is the people who had to hang on to their own cars for longer and have lost/are losing money through KBB and Edmunds market value down grades.

I think it's something you need to ask your dealer and present your case and hope they give you something fair. I'm still waiting on the rumored $100 visa card.

Dedonut Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) gman - You've said a couple of times you don't trust the dealer. Are you sure you should be dealing with them? It's a long relationship including the service. That being said, I leased the 2011 from one dealership, didn't like them, and had all my service done at another and that's the one I'm now working with on this next car. The lease ys return the car to the place you leased it from unless you've moved 75 miles away. Truth is, you can turn it to any Lincoln Dealer who'll agree to do the paperwork. kirby - I bet you know the answer to this. I'm checking my Dealership's inventory to see when mine shows up as 'in transit'. They have 11 MKZs coming, 8 ight say 'Dealer ordered', 3 don't. What's the difference? Are the 3 some kind of allocation that they didn't specifically order? Edited February 5, 2013 by Dedonut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedonut Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Looks great!! Stay with us as we all end up posting our pics, and.... we'll be mightily interested in how you like it as you put a few miles on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
