The Indians, the Browns, the Cavs – they've all come close, but being a resident of C-Town means learning to appreciate the effort more than a reward that never seems to come.

Report: Lincoln to focus on volume models, not halo car 1345989600
There's profits in numbers. That's going to be the approach to new vehicles at Lincoln, Automotive News says.

Lincoln has released the first 30-second ad spot for the 2013 MKS, with its seventeen intial seconds spent covering the era of Lincoln glory from 1922 to 1976. The ad almost feels like an apology for the MKS, as if the ad team really wanted to sell the 2013 MKZ but was assigned the penalty-box MKS and had their protestations silenced with, "Just make ...

Video: Lincoln offers peak into new styling direction with design boss Max Wolff 1321909200
For a while there, it looked like Ford forgot about Lincoln, and dismal sales numbers reflected the marque's lack of attention.

Los Angeles: 2013 Lincoln MKS evolves new nose, bigger brakes 1321506060
%Gallery-139642% Think about the position that Cadillac was in over a decade ago; that's about where Lincoln is today.
