The Mark LT was a luxury pickup truck by Lincoln, the luxury division of the American automaker Ford Motor Company. It first went on sale in January 2005 for the 2006 model year. The Mark LT is essentially a rebadged version of the popular Ford F-150 truck with a more luxury-oriented cabin. The Mark LT is a successor to the failed 2002-only Lincoln Blackwood (which was never sold in Canada), Lincoln’s only other pickup truck, which was only a rear-wheel drive vehicle. J.D. Power Quality listed the Mark LT as overall dependability for all 3 years it was manufactured as “among the best” (with a minimum 4 stars for the 2006 variant in initial quality).
