Correct

Does it specify a front LP mount on the window sticker?Well my 1st (dealer stock) order arrived today in MI. Not taking this one as previously said.
@peterk9 so Ford mounted the front license plate. They are not supposed to.. so I assume the one I am going to get will have it too.

MI is a 1 plate state though. I'm confused, was this one ordered in MI?It says "front license plate bracket - No charge". I know this code is optional on states that do not require a front plate and could be removed. This is possibly where it went wrong because the code was kept on there. Where as, states that require 2 plates, this code can NOT be removed. This is probably why both my other vehicles did not have them mounted.

Ah OK, thank you. For some reason I thought you were in a different state.Yes but the front plate code was added to my order. So I am assuming because the code was added, the factory is installing it. If he would have left the code off (which is allowed for MI orders), it wouldn't have come with a front plate.

That's super annoying and a departure from the 5th gens.
Lincolns are almost worth it for the service loaners alone!Well, My wife and I may be forgoing the ST completely.
After looking at a Lincoln MKC for my mother in law this weekend, we saw a Nautilus Black Label with the 2.7 on the showroom floor in White Platinum with Onyx theme. We fell in love!!! It was missing a couple features so last night I began an extensive search for exactly what we would want.
Sticker is $68,700 for what we want (found 2 in about 800 miles away at different dealerships). After a very to the point email to both GMs about wanting there 1 and only best offer, they offered $6,400 off sticker plus rebates (theybwere within $100 of each other). I have a $500 cash rebate and a $750 Private rebate so we are talking $7,650 off sticker. Also 0% for 72 months. We also get 1.9% for 72 months.
The payment is actually cheaper by about $80 a month then the ST based on credit union rates on a 72 month loan for the Explorer.
Longer warranty, unlimited car washes for life, 4yr/50k maintenance included, free lincoln loaner cars and free pickup/dropoff at my house or work for service (they bring a loaner to me and take my car to the dealership for service, then return it to me when completed).
Going to decide by tomorrow but to me seems like a no brainer.
Thus is what it looks like, used this dealer for pics.

We just bought a Nautilus about a month ago, its a really nice truck. It's my spouse's daily driver. Nice to drive and really comfortable
The Nautilus is very nice, but it cracks me up that blwn busted on everyone how the 2020 Explorer ST is the greatest vehicle since the Model T yet goes for the Lincoln...awesome.
yea they feel great, that's why I ordered my St with the premium tech pack because it comes with massage seats too!We sat in the 5 row massage seats.. I cant believe how well they work in this vehicle. It is true kneading across 5 rows of airbags. Wife and I sat in and turned it on, looked at each other and smiled as our whole thighs, butt and back were being massaged.

I’m not the biggest fan of it but seeing it in person and sitting in the truck with it, it’s not as bad as the pics make it look.That tablet portrait screen on the premium package just looks plain ugly.
I have those seats in my 2017 Platinum but have yet to even turn them on.yea they feel great, that's why I ordered my St with the premium tech pack because it comes with massage seats too!
