tanner83 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) Having never owned or Pre-ordered a Lincoln before, I was wondering if there is a standard process that the dealership uses to turn over a car to a customer. I would imagine this is probably a pretty dealership centric process one not governed by Lincoln. Anyone out there that has gone through this process or has recommendations that I should follow as I accept delivery of this new car??

Anyone out there that has gone through this process or has recommendations that I should follow as I accept delivery of this new car?? Same I've never own a Lincoln before but I'm sure the process is the same. When we took delivery of our Toyota, we finish up the paper work, went out to the car. From there I did some last minute inspections in case there was something I might have missed. They showed me how to start the car, showed me where every thing is, and things like procedure to jump start the 12V battery in case I need it. The whole process took no more than 30minutes. I think the MKZ is going to take a bit longer. I need to set the ecoguide dash which I will definitely need help on. I've been trying to see which screen I would like more. Also I would like them to walk me through the MLT and perhaps sync my phone and upload address/contacts for me. Oh and I noticed there is a MLT/MFT class offered there at my dealer every month so that helps if I needed futher help ( but I have you guys right? :P ) Edited February 7, 2013 by Serraph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanner83 Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) So here is what I am hoping for.... 0800 - Lincoln Dealership person arrives my home to pick me and take me to the dealership 0830-0900 - Orange Juice, Bagels and a long look at my MKZ 0900-1000 - First Test Drive in my new MKZ Hybrid (I would push for going solo, but if someone has to go with me so be it.) 1000-1100 - Paperwork 1100-1300 - Familiariziation both with the maintenance, MLT/Sync, Engine, and Service departments(I am hoping that a knowledgeable person not a salesperson will be performing this task) 1300 - 1400 Initial Configuration of MLT, EcoScreens, etc... 1400 - Drive off in my new car!! Hmm, you know thinking about this I should just send this to my dealer so that they know what I want rather than trying to read my mind. I don't know is that to much to ask????? ROFLMAO Edited February 7, 2013 by tanner83 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROFLMAO Wow, does that really take that long? >.> Oh, do they come and pick you up? That would help a lot in my case. We're about 1hour away from them though. The local dealer here wasn't very sincere in earning our business so we went elsewhere. Edited February 7, 2013 by Serraph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
