Cadillac Escalade EXT offers a SUV / pickup crossover, and Lincoln introduced a Blackwood SUV / pickup crossover for 2002, although it did not take long before the car was stopped. Lincoln re-entered the segment of the 2006 debut of the Mark LT, which comes from the Ford F-150 crew cab models. For the year 2008, Mark LT is equipped with standard satellite radio and six-month free subscription to Sirius. New options include remote start and camera glass.
