Hi, my name is Craig. Last week I bought a 2011 Lincoln MKS. This is the first Ecoboost I've ever driven. I absolutely love how smooth and powerful the powertrain is. It had just under 65000 miles when I bought it and I've put about 650 miles on it so far.

Right now I don't have any plans to modify it; just want to keep it well maintained.



I've been a Torque user quite a while. Some of the posts here motivated me to create the most extensive layout I've ever created.

Nice looking car...if you love the power plant now you really should install a simple tune on it...it will blow your mind and you will fall in love with it again

Congrats on the sweeeet MKS, and welcome to the community, Craig! 'tis true a good tune will make it a horse of a totally different color.

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!

Welcome - great choice! I love the MKS with EB & sport appearance package. I used to own a 2010 MKS in Platinum White with Sienna Brown interior. Does yours have the brown interior or black?

Welcome to the forum craig!

Craig, for Heavens sake, get a tune for that thing.   You should probably send ME money just for telling you that.   :)

I just tuned mine with 100k on it.

Not what I'm used to but it's still a helluva lot better than stock.
