Buying a Lincoln in Orlando
You want the Lincoln. We settle three things with you before you drive up from Orlando: which Lincoln, what it costs to own, and what your trade is worth.


Buyers guideNumbers settled before you arrive.
Which of the three Lincolns fits you best?
You have probably arrived with a specific question, and usually it is which of the three fits the way you drive. Close behind come what each Lincoln tows and whether Black Label is worth the extra cost.
Then the practical one: whether service can come to you instead of you driving to us. They are fair questions, and they deserve straight answers.
A three-row luxury SUV is a long commitment, so the model matters more than the trim. Service is the other thing to settle early, and Pickup & Delivery up to 70 miles away means service does not have to take your morning.

What are the steps to buying your Lincoln?
Step 1: Your budget, first
Decide your monthly figure in advance. Include financing, insurance and maintenance. Then discuss the Lincoln's out-the-door price instead of the monthly payment.
Step 2: Pre-approval, arranged ahead
Once your rate is set, the conversation stays on the Lincoln itself.
Step 3: Two Lincolns, shortlisted
Choose two Lincolns from the answers below, and the visit stays short.
Step 4: Both Lincolns, back to back
A half hour on the roads you use answers what a brochure leaves out.
Step 5: The out-the-door number in writing
We put the complete figure in writing, because written numbers are the ones you can compare.
Step 6: Service, settled before you need it
We explain what servicing and warranty involve before you sign, because you pay those costs after the sale.
Ready to see the Lincoln lineup in person?
We are at 3505 N US Highway 17-92, Longwood, serving Longwood, Orlando, Altamonte Springs, Lake Mary, Sanford, Winter Park and Seminole County. Take your time on the drive, and come back to compare another Lincoln.
Nobody here rushes a decision. Ask about ownership costs, not only purchase costs.
Where to find us
How does a visit here go?
Will the one I want be here?
One call before you drive over, with the trim and the interior, tells you whether the car is here.
- We will start with the model, then the trim.
- The interior color narrows things fastest, so we will ask for that.
- We will ask whether new, certified or pre-owned suits you best.
- We can arrange to bring one here for you.
One minute on the phone before you set off, and the car will be ready and waiting when you arrive.
Am I going to be pushed?
You set the pace here. Once we know at the door whether you are looking or buying, we will follow your lead.
- You are welcome to say plainly that you are browsing today.
- We will give the total price along with the monthly payment.
- We will put the figures in writing for you.
- You are welcome to take the numbers home and think it over.
We keep the pace relaxed and follow your lead, so the visit stays what you told us it was for.
Can I drive two of them back to back?
Yes, and driving them back to back is the fastest way to feel the real difference.
- We will have both waiting side by side, once you name the two.
- You will drive the same route in both of them.
- We will allow for the traffic you face on a usual day.
- We will move you from one to the other inside twenty minutes.
An hour between two drives lets them merge in your memory, while twenty minutes keeps each one distinct.
How long will I be there?
An hour or two covers it here, and much of it can be handled from home.
- You can apply for financing before you leave the house.
- We can take your trade details in advance.
- We will send the out-the-door figure in writing.
- We will book a time so the car is waiting.
Waiting at a dealership is mostly paperwork, and starting yours at home keeps the visit here short.
What do I bring?
Your license, proof of insurance, both keys for your trade and your title or payoff details are what we work from. The keys move the appraisal number the most.
- Your license and the insurance for your car are the first two.
- The two keys issued with your trade come next.
- The title or the loan payoff details follow those.
- Any approval your bank has already given is useful too.
That second key is worth real money on your appraisal, so a quick trip home for it pays off.
What should I ask before I sign?
Four short questions settle it, and each one gets a straight, short answer.
- We will give the total, with every fee included.
- We will tell you what is covered and the date it begins.
- We will explain the support you have if an issue appears days later.
- We will show you which additions stay optional on the agreement.
Asked one at a time, each question gets a straight answer.
Still deciding which Lincoln fits?
Once we know the longest drive of your week and what has to fit in the back, we will answer it faster than a brochure can.

at Parks Lincoln of Longwood?
| What people mention | In their words |
|---|---|
| Being explained things | “Marcus was great from the beginning to the end. He helped and answered all my questions.This is the 2nd car have bought from this dealership and they do not disappoint” Amy Clermont, 5-star Google review |
| Getting it done quickly | “Austin was not only on time for our appointment he was early! Did a great quick fix on a recall for my Lincoln!” Melissa Atkins, 5-star Google review |

What do you need to know before buying a Lincoln?
1. Which Lincoln fits how you drive?
| The Lincoln | Size and rows | Pick it if |
|---|---|---|
| Nautilus | Two rows, more room | You want a two-row Lincoln with room in both rows and no third row. Hybrid on equipped trims. |
| Aviator | Three rows | You need seven seats or tow up to 5,000 lb when properly equipped. 3.0L twin-turbo V6, 383 hp. |
| Navigator | Full size, three rows | You tow heavy: up to 8,700 lb with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package. |
| Black Label | A trim tier, not a separate model | You want the top trim. Available on the Navigator, Aviator and Nautilus. |
One thing before you go looking for it: the Aviator Grand Touring plug-in hybrid is discontinued for the 2025 and 2026 model years. Every 2026 Aviator runs the 3.0L twin-turbo V6.
Black Label is a tier, not a separate vehicle: coordinated interior themes plus member benefits, offered on the Navigator, Aviator and Nautilus.

2. How much can a Lincoln tow for your boat?
| Your load | Choose | Rated to |
|---|---|---|
| A jet ski or a small utility trailer | Nautilus | 1,750 lb with the dealer-installed Class I Trailer Tow Package. |
| A bay boat or center-console under 20 ft | Aviator | 5,000 lb, properly equipped. |
| A mid-size travel trailer | Aviator | The same 5,000 lb rating handles most of them. |
| A large boat or a long travel trailer | Navigator | Rated 8,700 lb with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package. |
Do the math before you hook up the trailer: a Florida bay boat's real weight is hull plus motor plus trailer plus fuel plus gear, and that loaded number, not the brochure's dry weight, is what the rating has to cover. Bring your boat's actual weights to the drive, and we can answer the towing question in minutes.
Tongue weight is the second check: it comes out of the vehicle's payload along with passengers and gear, and a family plus a weekend's cargo plus a heavy tongue can crowd a payload limit before the cargo area is full. We can run both numbers with you on the specific vehicle. Ask.

Browse the lineupAsk about towing
3. Which two Lincolns should you compare side by side?
| If you came in for the | Also drive the | What changes between them |
|---|---|---|
| Nautilus | Aviator | A third row, and a rating of 5,000 lb when properly equipped. |
| Aviator | Navigator | Rated 8,700 lb with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package, on a longer body to park. |
Drive a pair on the same afternoon. They are close enough together that a spec sheet leaves the choice open.

4. What Black Label buys you
| Benefit | What comes with it | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Designer interior themes | Fully coordinated designs | Colors, materials and trims chosen as a set, not picked one option at a time. |
| Anytime concierge support | Included in the program | A member benefit. |
| Complimentary annual detailing | Once a year | A member benefit. |
| Culinary Collection | A dining benefit | A member benefit. |
| Premium Maintenance Plan | 4 years / 50,000 miles | Scheduled service is covered on the Aviator Black Label. |
Black Label is two purchases in one: the interior themes, and an ownership package of covered maintenance and extras that has real cash value over four years. Weigh the package in real dollars. Price the covered services against the same visits paid retail, add what the amenities are worth to you, and decide whether the extra cost is worth it.
The first question is how you use a car. Owners who drive often, service on schedule and keep the car past the loan get the full value of the package; a low-mileage second-car buyer mostly buys the interior. Both are good reasons to buy, and knowing which one you are makes the finance conversation simple.

5. Certified adds 200 checks and an age limit
| What comes with it | How it works | Why it counts |
|---|---|---|
| The inspection | 200 points | Two hundred checks before it can be sold certified. |
| Age and mileage caps | Set by Lincoln | Cars past the age or mileage limit cannot be certified. |
| Lincoln warranty | Yes | Lincoln backs it. |
| Roadside help | Yes | Comes with the program. |
| History report | Full report | The recorded past, not only today's condition. |
| Your rate | Usually better | Lenders see factory-certified cars as lower risk. |
The money-back guarantee is a safety net, not a substitute for the drive: 14 days or 1,000 miles, subject to the program's condition and mileage terms.
Ask us for those terms in writing, and take the time to compare the cars properly while you are here. Use that window like a real test drive: the school drive, the highway, the parking garage, while it is still open.
Certified pre-owned carries a 6-year/100,000-mile comprehensive limited warranty from the original in-service date, so two similar-looking Aviators can be years apart in what remains. Ask us to check the in-service date on the specific car. The vehicle history report and the inspection sheet come with the car; read both before the drive, not after.

6. What a Lincoln costs to keep on the road
| Item | What to expect | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Oil changes | 10,000 miles or 12 months | Motorcraft oil, at the grade and type Lincoln specifies for your engine. |
| The 60,000-mile visit | We quote it for your car | The biggest scheduled visit, and the one to price before you book. |
| Five years of maintenance | We quote it for your car | Ask us to price the five-year schedule on the exact Aviator. |
| On Black Label trims | Included for 4 years / 50,000 miles | Black Label trims only. |
If you are weighing a Black Label trim, compare the covered maintenance with these figures in real dollars. Four years of scheduled service is a substantial part of the five-year total.

7. Is pickup and delivery available for your Lincoln?
| Service | How far, or how | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Lincoln Pickup & Delivery | Up to 70 miles | Reaches across greater Orlando and the surrounding region. |
| Our technicians | Trained on BlueCruise and PHEV systems | The systems an independent shop sees least often. |
| An unbroken service record | Used on a warranty claim | Lincoln checks the factory record when it assesses a powertrain claim. |
| Phone | Two direct lines | Sales on 407-268-5051, service on 407-268-5050, so your call reaches the right desk. |
On a luxury car, the service record adds to what the car is worth. A Lincoln with every scheduled visit documented appraises higher at trade time and keeps warranty conversations short. Service here builds that record in one place.
The habit that pays: read the multi-point inspection sheet each visit and deal with what it flags on your schedule. Central Florida heat wears on batteries and climate systems with little warning, and the sheet is how small problems stay cheap.

8. Should you lease new or finance a certified Lincoln?
| Option | Best for | Keep in mind |
|---|---|---|
| Leasing new | Nautilus, Aviator, Navigator | Depends on what is in stock. |
| Financing certified | Most certified buyers | Lease programs generally cover new vehicles, not CPO. |
| Lots of miles a year | Financing | Lease mileage caps make high mileage costly. |
| Keeping it beyond five years | Financing | What we usually recommend. |
| No-money-down offers | Set by Lincoln Financial Services | Ask us for this month's. |
The lease case on a Lincoln is straightforward: strong for drivers who want a new vehicle every two or three years, predictable miles, and a monthly figure lower than financing the same car.
The trade-off is a mileage cap, a condition standard at turn-in and a car you hand back at the end, which is a fair exchange for the right owner, and the reason a high-mileage driver is usually better off financing.
Two questions settle most lease decisions: how many miles did you drive last year (the odometer has the answer), and do you tend to keep cars past the loan term?
High mileage or long-term ownership points to financing; low mileage and a taste for the newest model points to leasing. Ask us to quote the same car both ways in one sitting.




9. The only Lincoln franchise in Seminole County
| Fact | Detail | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|
| Seminole County's only Lincoln franchise | Family-run at the same address since 1979 | The next closest Lincoln store is outside the county. |
| The full range | Nautilus, Aviator, Navigator | You can compare the whole lineup, Black Label trims included, in one visit. |
| Where we are | 3505 N US Highway 17-92, Longwood, FL 32750 | Sales and service are both at this one address. |
| Two phone lines | Sales and service | Each department has its own number; both are in the visit section below. |
We are the only Lincoln franchise in Seminole County, family-run at the same address since 1979. In practice that means sales, service, warranty and recalls all happen at one address, and the nearest alternative is a county away. For an Orlando-area Lincoln owner, this is your local Lincoln store.
As the only Lincoln franchise in Seminole County, our reputation rests on how we treat the owners we already have, which is why the same names keep coming up in the reviews.

10. Where the Lincoln warranty stops
| Coverage | Term | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Bumper-to-bumper | 4 years / 50,000 miles | The whole vehicle, from the original in-service date. |
| Powertrain | 6 years / 70,000 miles | Engine, transmission and drive components. |
| Corrosion | 5 years / unlimited miles | Rust-through on body panels. |
| Safety restraint system | 5 years / 60,000 miles | Seat belts and airbag components. |
| Hybrid and electric unique components | 8 years / 100,000 miles | On Grand Touring plug-in models and hybrids. |
| Certified pre-owned | 6-year/100,000-mile comprehensive limited warranty from the original in-service date | With a 200-point inspection, a vehicle history report and a 14-day, 1,000-mile money-back guarantee. |
Lincoln's terms are longer than most: four years or 50,000 miles on the whole vehicle and six years or 70,000 miles on the powertrain, both from the original in-service date. On a two-year-old Aviator that leaves two years of bumper-to-bumper coverage and four years of powertrain coverage, which is more remaining warranty than most three-year-old luxury cars carry.
Certified pre-owned adds a 200-point inspection, a vehicle history report and a 14-day, 1,000-mile money-back guarantee, with a 6-year/100,000-mile comprehensive limited warranty from the original in-service date.
The plug-in Grand Touring models carry an eight-year, 100,000-mile term on their hybrid components. On a pre-owned one, that term answers the battery question; ask us how much of it remains before you talk price.
Certified pre-ownedBook service
11. What is your trade worth before you visit?
| Step | When | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Online valuation | Before you visit | An independent figure to bring with you to the appraisal. |
| Records, keys, title | At the appraisal | A full service history moves a luxury trade more than anything else you can bring. |
| Trade allowance and price, separately | At the desk | Quoted separately, so you see each figure on its own. |
| In writing, dated | Before you sign | A dated figure is one you can plan around. |
On a luxury car, the service history is what drives the trade-in figure. A Lincoln, or any premium make, with every visit recorded appraises higher than the same car that lacks records, because the next buyer will ask the same question you are being asked now. Bring the records, both keys and the title or payoff.
You only pay the difference between the trade allowance and the price, so have the trade allowance and the price of the new Lincoln quoted separately and in writing. That way you can see exactly what each figure is doing.
If the number is short of what you expected, ask what would move it. Sometimes it is a detail or a small repair; sometimes the market for that model has shifted. Either way, decide with the answer in hand.
12. How does Central Florida weather affect your Lincoln?
| Local factor | What it does | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Heat | Shortens 12-volt battery life; works the climate system hard | Battery test from the third summer; climate system checked in spring. |
| Afternoon storms | Standing water on low roads and in parking lots | Never drive through water you cannot see through; know where the car sits when a storm comes. |
| Sun | Ages leather and dashboards | Shade, a sunshade and conditioned leather once or twice a year. |
| Weekend trips to the coast | Salt air on the underbody | Rinse underneath after the beach; have it looked at during service. |
| Hurricane season, June to November | Evacuation traffic and fuel | Keep the tank above half through the season; a plug-in Grand Touring covers the short trips on electricity. |
Longwood's climate is gentle on a Lincoln for nine months and demanding for three. Summer heat shortens 12-volt battery life and works the climate system hardest, so have the battery tested from its third summer and the climate system checked in spring, not July. Our service inspection covers both, so ask us to check them when you book.
Afternoon storms bring standing water, and a modern Lincoln has its control modules low in the doors and under the seats. The rule is the same everywhere in Florida: never drive through water you cannot see the bottom of, no matter what the car ahead of you managed.
Weekends at the coast bring salt air home on the underbody. An underside rinse afterward and a look underneath at every service keep a Central Florida car from aging like a beachside one. Through hurricane season, keep the tank above half; a plug-in Grand Touring does the local trips on electricity, which is one less thing to think about.
13. What buying here is like, in buyers' own words
| What people mention | In their words |
|---|---|

| No pressure | “He showed us similar vehicles to the one we booked an appointment to see, with better options and mileage, but was not pushy when we decided to stick with our original choice.” B.J. Haveman, 5-star Google review |
14. What matters in your first month with a new Lincoln?
| When | What to do | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Day one | Check the paperwork matches the car | Compare the VIN, trim, and price on the contract with the car itself. |
| First week | Learn BlueCruise hands-on | Hands-free highway driving is the feature owners most often never use. |
| First month | Start the service file here | A continuous factory record is what Lincoln reviews on a powertrain claim. |
| Before the first service | Check the 70-mile range | Pickup and delivery apply only within it. |

We appraise your current car and put its value in writing, as its own figure beside the price of the new one.
Your remaining questions, answered
The Lincoln lineup
Is the Lincoln Aviator or the Navigator better for Florida families?
Both seat seven, so it comes down to what you tow and where you park.
The Aviator suits families who stay on-road and tow within 5,000 pounds when properly equipped. It makes 383 hp and offers BlueCruise hands-free highway driving.
The Navigator is the answer above that, rated 8,700 lb with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package, on a longer body you feel in a parking garage more than on I-4.
Come and sit in both on the same afternoon. Call us and we will have them ready.
Which Lincoln tows the most?
The Navigator, rated 8,700 lb with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package.
The Aviator is rated 5,000 lb when properly equipped and the Nautilus 1,750 lb with the dealer-installed Class I Trailer Tow Package.
Every rating assumes the vehicle is properly equipped, so the tow package on the exact car is what settles it. Call us and talk through what you tow.
Choosing between two Lincolns
Does Parks Lincoln of Longwood sell any other brand?
No. We sell Lincoln, and we carry the full lineup: Nautilus, Aviator and Navigator, Black Label trims included.
We are at 3505 N. U.S. 17-92, Longwood, FL, 15 minutes north of downtown Orlando. Call us and we will have the ones you want to drive ready when you arrive.
What is the Lincoln Aviator's towing capacity?
The Lincoln Aviator tows 5,000 lb when properly equipped. That covers most Florida bay boats, smaller center-console vessels, utility trailers and mid-size travel trailers.
For anything above 5,000 pounds, the Lincoln Navigator is the answer, rated 8,700 lb with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package.
The Aviator's 3.0L twin-turbo V6 (383 hp / 415 lb-ft) handles the majority of Florida towing inside that rated maximum.
About the dealership
Does the Lincoln Aviator qualify for Lincoln Pickup & Delivery in the Orlando area?
Yes. The Lincoln Aviator qualifies for Lincoln Pickup & Delivery through us up to 70 miles from 3505 N. U.S. 17-92, which covers Seminole and Orange counties, including downtown Orlando.
The program is complimentary for new Aviator owners within their 4-year / 50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty. One of our drivers picks up the vehicle from your home or office and completes the service there. We return the vehicle promptly with a complimentary wash.
Call our service team to arrange it.
Is the Lincoln Aviator or the Nautilus better for Florida families?
The Aviator is the stronger choice for families who need three rows, seven seats or towing above 1,750 pounds. It seats seven and tows 5,000 lb when properly equipped.
For families of five or fewer who do not tow, the Nautilus gives you a quiet two-row cabin with room in both rows, and hands-free BlueCruise is available on it.
The decision usually comes down to whether the third row and the tow rating matter for your household.
How far is Parks Lincoln of Longwood from downtown Orlando?
We are at 3505 N. U.S. 17-92, Longwood, FL 32750, about 15 minutes north of downtown Orlando via I-4 East to Exit 94 (SR-434, Longwood/Winter Springs). Buyers from College Park, Winter Park, and Maitland typically arrive in 12-18 minutes.
From Lake Nona, take FL-417 North to I-4; the drive is about 30 minutes. We are an authorized Lincoln franchise in Longwood, Seminole County.
Does Parks Lincoln of Longwood serve Orlando buyers for service, or only sales?
We serve Orlando buyers for both sales and service. The Lincoln-certified service center is open Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Saturday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Orlando-area Lincoln owners up to 70 miles away can use Lincoln Pickup & Delivery. This factory program dispatches a driver to pick up and return the vehicle from home or the office, so many Orlando customers can service their Lincoln without traveling to Longwood. Call our service team to arrange it.
Why do Orlando-area buyers choose Parks Lincoln of Longwood?
We hold a 4.8-star Google rating from 2,700+ verified reviews and received the Lincoln Motor Company President’s Award for 2025.
Orlando buyers come back for the same advisor across several cars, for Black Label delivered in-house, for Pickup & Delivery up to 70 miles away, and for the same family at the same address since 1979.
Does Parks Lincoln of Longwood offer home test drives for Orlando buyers?
Yes. Home test drives are available for buyers within the 70-mile Lincoln Pickup & Delivery range, which covers the Orlando metro, including Winter Park, Maitland, College Park, Lake Mary, Lake Nona and downtown Orlando.
A Brand Advocate delivers and conducts the test drive, not a courier service, and we request 24 hours' notice. Call us to arrange.
What Lincoln models does Parks Lincoln of Longwood carry for Orlando buyers?
We carry the complete Lincoln SUV lineup: Nautilus (two-row, 5-seat with Lincoln Black Label option), Aviator (three-row, 7-seat) and Navigator (three-row flagship).
Lincoln Black Label is authorized in-house on Nautilus, Aviator and Navigator. Lincoln Certified Pre-Owned inventory is available with a 200-point inspection and 6-year / 100,000-mile comprehensive limited warranty. Browse the inventory online or call us.
How does Lincoln Pickup & Delivery work for Orlando owners?
Lincoln Pickup & Delivery is a factory program we run up to 70 miles from 3505 N. U.S. 17-92.
A Parks Lincoln of Longwood driver collects the vehicle from the customer's home or office, delivers a complimentary loaner and completes the service at the facility. The vehicle returns the same day with a complimentary wash.
The digital multi-point inspection report goes to the owner's phone. The program is complimentary for new Lincoln owners within their 4-year / 50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty and for Lincoln Black Label owners. Call our service team to arrange it.
Does the Lincoln Aviator still offer a plug-in hybrid?
No. Lincoln discontinued the Aviator Grand Touring plug-in hybrid powertrain for the 2025 and 2026 model years. Every Aviator now runs the 3.0L twin-turbocharged V6 producing 383 hp and 415 lb-ft of torque.
The Nautilus offers a hybrid powertrain on equipped trims. Call us for the latest on Lincoln's electrified powertrains.
Which Lincoln SUV should I buy if I need to tow a boat in Florida?
The Lincoln Aviator (5,000-lb towing capacity) handles most Florida boat trailers, bay boats and smaller center-console vessels under 20 feet. The Lincoln Navigator (8,700-lb towing capacity with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package) is the right choice for larger boats, pontoon rigs or travel trailers.
The Nautilus is rated 1,750 lb with the dealer-installed Class I Trailer Tow Package. Whichever model, we will check the rating on the specific car with its own equipment, because a tow rating depends on how the car is equipped instead of on the model name. Call us and talk through what you tow.
Financing and leasing
Where can I find Lincoln lease deals near me?
We offer new Lincoln leases at 3505 N US Highway 17-92 in Longwood, serving the greater Orlando area. We are in Longwood, in Seminole County. Call us or check our current offers page, and ask us to build your payment on your real mileage instead of an advertised low figure.
Which Lincoln models can I lease at Parks Lincoln of Longwood?
You can lease the Lincoln Nautilus, Aviator and Navigator, subject to current inventory. The Nautilus is offered as a hybrid on equipped trims. Confirm what is currently on the lot with our team.
Is it better to lease or finance a Lincoln?
It depends on how you drive. Leasing keeps your monthly payment lower and lets you switch into a new Lincoln every two or three years; financing builds ownership equity and suits higher-mileage or longer-term drivers.
If you drive more than 15,000 miles a year or keep cars to 100,000 miles, we usually steer you toward financing so you do not pay mileage overages. Our team compares both, including total cost, before you decide.
How does lease mileage work, and what happens if I go over?
Your lease includes an annual mileage allowance (commonly 10,000, 12,000 or 15,000 miles). If you drive past it, you owe a per-mile overage charge at turn-in, and the rate is on the lease itself.
Tell us your real commute when we build the quote and we will set the mileage tier to match.
Should I put a big down payment on a lease?
Usually not. A large down payment lowers the monthly figure, but if the vehicle is stolen or totaled early, you largely lose that money; gap coverage pays off the lease balance, not your down payment. We generally advise keeping lease cash down low.
It is the right answer even when a low-monthly ad suggests otherwise.
Service and ownership
Do you offer Lincoln Pickup & Delivery?
Yes. Lincoln Pickup & Delivery is available up to 70 miles from the dealership, so a service visit during your lease does not have to interrupt your day.
How current are your lease offers?
Lincoln incentives, residual values and money factors change monthly. Call us or request a quote for today's exact figures.
What Lincoln lease specials are available right now?
Lincoln lease incentives change every month. The current offers for the Nautilus, Aviator, and Navigator are posted on our current incentives page, call us for the exact payment, term and money factor on the model you want.
The 'from' payment in any ad assumes a specific trim, credit tier, mileage allowance and amount due at signing, so always confirm your real number before you decide.
Is Parks Lincoln of Longwood a legit Lincoln dealer?
Yes. We are an established Lincoln dealership, part of Parks Motor Group, founded in 1975, and a recipient of the Lincoln Motor Company President's Award for 2025. We are the Lincoln store in Longwood, in Seminole County.
Should I lease or finance my Lincoln?
Lease if you want a lower payment, predictable mileage, and a new Lincoln every two to three years under full warranty. Finance if you want to own the vehicle long-term, run higher annual mileage, or keep it well past the lease term.
If you drive more than 15,000 miles a year, tell us early, financing is often the better deal once mileage overage is in the picture.
Bring us your annual mileage and how long you tend to keep a car, and we will run both options side by side on the vehicle you want.
What fees should I expect on a Florida Lincoln lease?
Plan for due-at-signing (first payment plus any down payment and up-front taxes/fees), a lease acquisition fee, Florida title/registration/tag fees set by the state, sales tax applied to your monthly payment and a possible end-of-lease disposition fee.
Florida taxes the monthly lease payment, not the full vehicle price. We itemize everything on one sheet so nothing surprises you at signing.
Can I lease a Lincoln if I live outside Longwood?
Yes. We serve greater Orlando and the surrounding region, including Daytona Beach and Lincoln Pickup & Delivery covers service up to 70 miles away. Many of our lease customers drive in from across the area.
Is Parks Lincoln of Longwood a real Lincoln dealership near Orange County?
Yes. We are an established Lincoln dealership at 3505 N US Highway 17-92 in Longwood, FL, north of Orange County, serving the greater Orlando area. We are part of Parks Motor Group, founded in 1975, and we are located in Longwood, Seminole County.
How far is the dealership from Orange County?
We are located in Longwood, immediately north of Orlando along US-17-92, a short, direct drive for most Orange County neighborhoods. For service, our Lincoln Pickup & Delivery program reaches up to 70 miles, which covers Orange County, so many owners never have to make the drive at all.
Which Lincoln has hands-free highway driving?
BlueCruise is available on the Nautilus and on the Aviator.
Many owners never use it, which is a waste on I-4 at rush hour. Ask us to switch it on during the test drive instead of reading about it.
Whether the car has it depends on the trim and the equipment on that exact car, so we will check the one you are looking at.
Do you offer Lincoln service for hybrids and hands-free systems?
Yes. Our factory-trained technicians service Lincoln PHEV (plug-in hybrid) and BlueCruise hands-free driving systems, and every service visit includes a complimentary car wash and vacuum. Our service hours are Mon-Fri 7 am-6 pm and Sat 8 am-5 pm; we are closed Sundays.
Will you tell me if a Lincoln is not the right buy for me?
Yes. And where a Lincoln does fit, it earns the drive north from Orlando: the quiet cabin, a President's Award service department and pickup and delivery.
How much are Florida title and registration fees?
The state sets those fees, not us. We itemize them on one sheet so you can see each line before you sign.
Certified pre-owned
How do I know a pre-owned Lincoln has no open recalls?
Our service team runs incoming inventory against the federal recall database by VIN before delivery, and anything open is closed out before the car goes to a customer.
Ask us to run the VIN with you while you are here. You will see the result on the screen with us.
Is it better to lease or buy a Lincoln in Florida?
It depends on annual mileage and how long you plan to keep the vehicle.
If you drive under 15,000 miles per year and want a new Lincoln every 36 months with lower monthly cash flow, a Lincoln AFS Red Carpet Lease is generally the better path.
If you drive over 15,000 miles a year or plan to keep the vehicle past the 4-year complimentary-maintenance window, financing beats leasing on total cost. Take the shortest term whose payment you can carry, because every year you add costs interest and time spent owing more than the Lincoln is worth.
Call our sales and finance desk for the live Lincoln AFS program math on your specific vehicle.
What is the mileage limit on a Lincoln lease?
Lincoln Automotive Financial Services offers Red Carpet Lease programs with multiple annual mileage plans, starting at 5,000 miles per year. You choose the mileage cap at signing, and it stays locked for the term.
Any mileage driven beyond the contracted cap is charged at the per-mile rate stated in your lease agreement, and we show you that rate before you sign.
We size the lease mileage to your actual driving estimate, not the lowest available cap, to avoid overage at lease end.
Can I buy out a Lincoln lease at the end of the term?
Yes. Every Lincoln AFS Red Carpet Lease includes a published residual buyout figure in the contract, calculated as a percentage of MSRP at the start of the term. At lease end, you can hand the vehicle back or lease another Lincoln.
You can also buy it outright at the residual buyout price plus tax. We write lease buyouts in-house, and the Finance team walks through the buyout math against current Lincoln Certified Pre-Owned market values at the desk.
Does Lincoln Access Rewards apply to leased vehicles?
Yes. Lincoln Access Rewards earns points on lease deliveries the same as new-vehicle purchases, and lease customers earn ongoing points on every paid service visit and parts purchase at any participating Lincoln dealer.
Points apply at checkout in our service drive or at the parts counter.
Warranty, trade-ins and local ownership
What is the Lincoln new-vehicle warranty?
Four years or 50,000 miles bumper-to-bumper; six years or 70,000 miles on the powertrain; five years or unlimited miles on corrosion; and eight years or 100,000 miles on hybrid and electric components, all from the original in-service date.
What does Lincoln Certified Pre-Owned include?
A 200-point inspection, a vehicle history report, a 14-day or 1,000-mile money-back guarantee and a 6-year/100,000-mile comprehensive limited warranty from the original in-service date.
How do I get a fair trade-in number on a luxury car?
Bring the full service history, both keys and the title and value it online first. Ask for the trade allowance and the purchase price as two separate written figures.
What does Central Florida weather do to a Lincoln?
Heat shortens battery life and works the climate system; storms bring standing water; sun ages leather. A battery test from the third summer, a spring climate check and staying out of standing water cover most of it.
More buyer questions
Can I buy a Lincoln here while rebuilding credit?
Ask the finance office to run your actual file, check multiple lenders, do an individual review, and provide a certified inventory that starts well below new-car prices. Several auto-loan pulls inside a short window count as one inquiry. Expect a higher rate, and keep the term short. The specific answer is free and takes minutes.
Are Lincolns reliable?
Current Lincolns share proven mechanicals across the lineup, and the six-year powertrain warranty is the factory's own confidence statement. Kept to schedule, easy with the covered maintenance on Black Label, they are dependable, documented luxury cars.
Model questions buyers ask
Are the Lincoln MKZ and MKC reliable pre-owned buys?
Both share proven Ford-family mechanicals under the luxury trim, and both age by their maintenance, not their badge. A documented MKZ is one of the pre-owned market's quiet luxury bargains; our inspection plus the vehicle history report will confirm the specifics of any car.
Is the Lincoln Continental reliable?
The final-generation Continental is mechanically conservative and generally durable, its rarity affects parts lead times more than its reliability. Buy on records, and enjoy owning something nobody else on the street has.
How long do Lincoln MKZs last?
Documented examples run well past 150,000 miles, especially the hybrid versions, whose drivetrain, proven in taxi service, has an easy life in private use. The service file tells you the most; ask us to walk you through it.
Does Lincoln still make sedans or trucks?
No, the current Lincoln line is all SUVs: Nautilus, Aviator and Navigator. Pre-owned sedans like the MKZ and Continental remain an excellent value, and we see them as trades.
Which Lincoln SUV is best for business use?
The Aviator carries clients in real comfort at a lower price than the Navigator, and the Navigator is the choice when the vehicle represents your business. Both keep their finish over high mileage if serviced on schedule, and pickup-and-delivery service keeps a working vehicle working.
People also ask
What is the best year to buy a Lincoln?
On a used Aviator or Nautilus, the later years of a generation carry the latest software and equipment.
On a pre-owned Aviator, ask us to pull the history report and open recalls on the specific car. For a new one, the best year is whichever has the incentive you can use.
How reliable is a Lincoln?
The engines and transmissions are shared with Ford trucks and SUVs and are well proven, and the infotainment and driver-assist software updates are done here.
We run the open-recall check by VIN before you buy, and it takes a few minutes.
What is the smoothest-riding Lincoln?
The Navigator, by a clear margin. It is the longest and heaviest vehicle in the range, and the extra wheelbase plus adaptive suspension smooths out expansion joints on I-4 in a way nothing shorter manages.
The Aviator with the adaptive setup is close behind and easier to park in Winter Park. Drive both back-to-back on the same stretch of road, since ride quality is the one thing a spec sheet cannot tell you.
Are Lincolns a good car to buy?
For a buyer who wants a quiet, comfortable American luxury SUV, yes. Servicing costs are reasonable for the class, and the factory powertrain warranty runs six years.
Resale is where certified pre-owned works in your favor: a Lincoln a few years old costs far less than it did new, and the Lincoln-backed coverage travels with it.
