Default Lexus GSh vs. Lincoln MKZ Hybrid

Anyone here done an comparisons of the two? I just see where Lincoln supposedly 'edged' out Lexus in the AutoPacific satisfaction awards in their hybrid/electric division. I haven't seen the interior of the Lincoln, nor have I driven it. However, it looks like a boat driving down the road when I see one in person. Ford also just got dinged for misrepresenting mileage figures on their Ford/Lincoln hybrids. They figures were a little inflated. Thoughts?

Apples to oranges..the MKZ battles the ES head on, the GS is head and shoulders the superior product based on engineering/pricing.

To be honest I've read little on the MKZ hybrid and have minimal feedback on it. I can say the GSh is considered the hybrid standard in the mid-size luxury sport sedan segment.

Silly me. When I saw the article about the Lincoln edging out the Lexus hybrid, I thought nothing about the ES. I only thought about my own experiences with my GS. I should have know better. Thanks for setting me straight folks.
