Koons Lincoln of Bethesda sign installation work begins (Photos)


A crew was working all day into the night yesterday at the future Koons Lincoln of Bethesda auto dealership at 7315 Wisconsin Avenue. It is in the ground floor of the Bethesda Crossing office building. You can see the electrical circuits inside a sign that protrudes out from the building facade, which will be visible to drivers and pedestrians.

I'm curious how well this dealership will do. It's definitely got high visibility. I think it'll come down to the quality of the product that Lincoln is putting out. It's safe to say that with high gas prices for the foreseeable future (because of Joe's horrible decisions and policies on energy) that people may give pause before plunking down hard cash on a gas-chugging SUV from Lincoln.

Joe isn’t going to let us drive gas cars
His new Liberal World Order and stopping gas drilling in the oceans is to make us like every sh**ty euro country which couldn’t defend themselves against Nazis

High gas
High food

@7:33 PM: That certainly seems to be the case. This is the policy of the US Government until there's a course correction in November 2022 and/or November 2024.

Lincoln currently offers a couple Plug-In Hybrid Models: https://www.lincoln.com/plug-in-hybrid-electric-vehicles

The Corsair will get you up to 28 miles of all-electric range on a charge.
The Aviator will get you up to 21 miles of all-electric range on a charge.

Not that impressive at all. This range will only decrease as the battery ages based on charge cycles too.

According to this report, Lincoln plans on adding four Electric Vehicles by 2026: https://www.cnbc.com/2022/04/20/ford-announces-lincoln-star-ev-concept-four-new-evs-to-debut-by-2026.html

Hopefully the charging infrastructure in Bethesda/MoCo is much improved by then, because right now it's abysmal.

An all-electric Lincoln Navigator (which is surely coming) would sell extremely well, even if gas was cheaper. The huge demand for Ford's F-150 Lightning Electric Truck shows that there's substantial demand for these vehicles and that not everyone wants a Tesla.
