Sorry to hear about the windshield, Zalvern, really hate to see that on a brand new car :(  But looks like you and your dealership have things well in hand, so, Kudos!

Coolant and windshield wiper fluid.  Both starved on pretty much every rental I've had the last few years as well.  Always topped it off myself (costs, but ...) before returning.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Came out great, glad you could get the battery to fit.

Thanks for all this detail. I think you may have sold me on trying BND coolant at least. Will have to run through my stores of AMSOil before trying any other fluids.

Should get it back Friday, just in time before I take it to the Cincinnati area Edgewater Drag Strip Test n' Tune night for some times that people have been wondering on, with stock tune of course.

$59,995 was the sticker. Chroma Exterior Paint and Panaramic Roof would of ran it almost 4 grand more, but neither are options I was interested in. But the incentives and plan benefits helped greatly. Compared to other cars in that price range, I found it worth it. Black Label Lincolns have better depreciation than the non-Black Labels, along with other benefits.

Just realized I better get myself a Snell certified motorcycle helmet for the track. Just in case it does break under 13.99 (My gut feeling says it will)...or I won't get more than a single run in.
With more power and I assume less weight than the SHO it has to be a 13 second car.

It amazes me that no one has reviewed one yet.

How much does it weigh?

We know there are a number of factors that impact quarter mile results...DA, track prep, launch technique to name a few.  Car & Driver tested a Cadillac CT6 with their 3.0 404 HP engine and reported a 13.5 quarter mile time.   I would expect the MKZ to be in that area if conditions are similar.
