Lincoln Wallpapers

Lincoln car - photo wallpapers; Megawallpapers.org: Lincoln is an American luxury automobile brand, operated under the Ford Motor Company. Founded in 1917 by Henry M. Leland [br]and acquired by Ford in 1922, Lincoln has been manufacturing vehicles [br]intended for the upscale markets since the 1920s. Ironically Lincoln's [br]prevalent competitor Cadillac, was also founded by Henry M. Leland having acquired the assets of The Henry Ford Company. [br]While Lincoln was the best selling luxury marque in the United States [br]as recently as 2002, Lincoln lost ground to its competitors. To combat [br]this recent slide in sales Lincoln has unveiled three new models, the MKZ sport sedan, MKS luxury sedan, and MKX crossover sport utility vehicle.[br]Presidential cars: Leland named the brand after his longtime hero Abraham Lincoln, for whom he had voted in the first presidential elections for which he was eligible. Lincoln had a long history of providing limousines for the U.S. President. The first car specially built for Presidential use was the 1939 Lincoln V12 convertible called the "Sunshine Special" used by Franklin D. Roosvelt. It remained in use until 1950. A 1950 Lincoln Cosmopolitan called the "Bubble Top" was used by Presidents Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy and once by Johnson. [br]It was retired in 1965. The Kennedy car was a 1961 Lincoln Continental [br]convertible. It was in use from 1961 to 1977, having undergone [br]extensive alterations which made it an armor-plated sedan after [br]Kennedy's assassination. A 1969 Lincoln was used by Nixon and a 1972 Lincoln used by Presidents Ford, Carter, Reagan and Bush. A 1989 Lincoln was the last Presidential Lincoln as of 2004. Cadillac supplied Presidential limousines in 1983, 1993, 2001, and 2004.[br]
