The Lincoln Blackwood was a short-lived experiment in ultimate luxury trucks. Based on the Ford F-150 SuperCrew, it was sold for just one model year, 2002, in the United States. It featured a 300-horsepower 5.4L V8, rear-wheel drive, and a unique bed with a power tonneau cover, Dutch doors, and full carpeting. The truck's singular focus on luxury over utility, including its non-functional bed, led to a massive sales failure with only 3,356 units produced.
That commercial flop is precisely why the Blackwood is collectible today. Its rarity and unique place in Lincoln's history make it a fascinating piece for enthusiasts of the early 2000s. It was the precursor to the more successful Navigator and modern luxury trucks. For collectors, it represents an affordable and unusual vehicle that always gets attention.
The market for the Blackwood is small but dedicated. With an average price under $20,000, it's an accessible collectible. The best, lowest-mileage examples can command prices over $40,000, while neglected trucks can be found for just a few thousand dollars. Condition is everything, as many of its unique parts are difficult to find.
Buying Tips
- The hydraulic power tonneau cover is a notorious failure point. Check for smooth operation and leaks, as repairs are expensive and complex.
- Inspect the carpeted bed and its stainless steel trim for water damage, mold, or mildew. The seals for the tonneau cover and Dutch doors can fail.
- The unique, pinstriped composite trim on the exterior of the bed is prone to delamination and fading. It's difficult to source and replace.
- Check the rear air suspension for leaks or a failing compressor. The truck should sit level and not sag in the rear.
- It's mechanically similar to a 2002 F-150, so look for common issues with the 5.4L V8 and check for rust on the frame and cab corners.
Prices range from $500 for projects to $45,000 for pristine, low-mileage examples.
