Mustang and Lincoln's January Sales Overcame Brutal Weather

BRIGHTON, Mich - Record low temperatures and snow storms dumping inches upon inches all over the country didn't stop all Ford customers from shopping. Mustang and Lincoln brand January Sales Overcame the Brutal Weather and ended up topping last years sales.

Overall, Ford Motor Company January sales are are down 7 percent from a year ago and retail sales are off 5 percent. With the rough weather conditions over the past month, Ford was happy to have kept their retail sales up to the number that they did.  Fortunately for the Ford Mustang and Lincoln brand, they were able to dodge their losses and start off 2014 on top.

Lincoln and the Ford Mustang were the two stars this month, both improving sales from last year. Lincoln had the strongest sales in four years, up 43 percent with 5,973 vehicles sold this January. The sales increase was thanks in great part to the Lincoln MKZ, with 2,133 vehicles sold, and the Lincoln MKX, with 2,479 vehicles sold. Mustang sales totaled 3,881 vehicles; an 8 percent increase over last year and the best beginning-of-year performance since 2010.
