Lincoln MKS
Lincoln has never been known for making cheap cars. Their vehicles might have a wide range of prices, but everyone knows that Lincolns cost money. Their MKS model was no different. It was a full-size luxury sedan that was sold by the automaker from 2007 and was recently discontinued in 2016.
Reports have come out that it costs more than $1,500 to maintain the Lincoln MKS annually. This adds up to almost $20,000 in a decade, a figure that doesn’t include gas and all the potential problems that might occur over that span of years. The car was also known for having issues with its breaks. These would cost between $250 to $750 to fix, which would get pretty pricey since there was no way around it.
Dodge SRT Viper
The Dodge SRT Viper is one of the most aggressive street-legal racing cars you’ll ever see. The SRT can go from zero to sixty in less than four seconds, and has an impressive triple-digit horsepower. It's also one of the baddest looking cars in the world. Unfortunately, the SRT is also a massive drainer when it comes to repairs and maintenance.
The SRT itself costs up to $120,000, but basic repairs such as replacing the control arm start at roughly $5,000. This is because the car is quite rare, and servicing it must require quite a high markup to be profitable. It's definitely not for everyone. We only hope that if you get one of these, you knew exactly what you were getting yourself into.
Volvo XC90
The signature Swedish machine beautifully blends luxury and practicality, making it perfect for a wild adventure. Have a big family or a big group of people? The XC90 offers three rows of seating, and easily accommodates five passengers and their gear—or seven, in a squeeze.
There's also a 400-hp plug-in hybrid variant that allows for extra speed and efficiency without reducing practicality. That's all thanks to the lithium-ion battery.
Lincoln Aviator
If you want to hit those long stretchy roads in style, then this is the one. With three rows of seating, 400-horsepower from its turbocharged V6, and extremely comfy interiors, you might enjoy this one. It has all-wheel drive, and the standard rear-drive layout means this is a luxury cruiser that can tow.
Lincoln also provides a plug-in hybrid version that tops the range of Aviator models.
