Or should it be "peeking", as in getting a preview?

Better still, should it be "piquing," as in to arouse interest or curiosity? Our collective curiousity is piqued by Detroit's unveilings at the NAIAS.

The grill is poorly done, the headlights are a rip off from Acura, and the tail lights are that off a Maserati. I mean these are suppose to be Lincolns, I really believe they need help recreating the brand, not stealing aspects from others. Also every vehicle looks different, there is no unity. Ford needs to get on the ball with exterior styling in order to get the customers to come in to the showroom. Ford of Europe's design needs to come over here, Mercury should stay as is, but with more bolder styling, and Lincoln needs a complete overhaul just like Cadillac started to do a few years back. Its the only way to keep Ford alive.

Generally, I agree. As a result of the better design of the CTS, I think you will find Cadillac moving more $40,000 CTS's than Lincoln will $40,000 MKS's.

Is there any coverage of any auto shows that are televised? If so, what station would they be on and when?

Or maybe "Peking" as in "Peking duck with fried rice"?

On Dealerworld if you go to search a car in the MY09 section there is a spot for the Traverse. There is also a host of new colors along the line of cars and trucks.

I agree, the Flex might be ok for Ford but I can't see it being a Lincoln. So it will be interesting to see what Lincoln will do with it. I just hope it doesn't look like a wagon. So far I find Lincoln's latest vehicles much improved over the previous generations.

Kudos on the new server, it was sorely needed.

Great work on the new server. I figured that is what you guys were doing during the downtime on Saturday.

Nice job to all who worked on the new server. It is very much appreciated.

Now everyone can stop complaining and we can all enjoy the site!

So.... have we pretty much seen everything there is to be seen? This has been pretty boring IMO.
