The Blackwood is primarily a styling statement. Look at us, at Lincoln. We're different. We're offering luxury where it hasn't been offered. That makes us The Best.As superficial as this may sound, the Blackwood does well what it sets out to do. The ride and handling are equal to and in some measures better than the Navigator's; don't be surprised to see some of this trickle down in the near future. The interior packaging is well thought out and executed.
The proportions look awkward, but maybe time will train the eye to accept something different from what it's used to.
