DEARBORN, Mich. (AP) -- Three American passions -- cars, food and basketball -- converge in a new series of TV ads for Ford Motor's Lincoln brand. Dwyane Wade of the NBA champion Miami Heat stars in an ad for the 2007 Lincoln Navigator SUV. Rocco DiSpirito, an award-winning chef and author, will star in a commercial for the new Lincoln M-K-X crossover. Those vehicles and two other Lincolns -- the Navigator-L, which is 15 inches longer than a standard Navigator, and the all-wheel-drive M-K-Z sedan -- will be featured in one of the four new ads. That spot begins airing this weekend. The ad with Wade will run when the 2007 Navigator reaches showrooms in September. The M-K-X ad with DiSpirito will air when it goes on sale in November. />
