Kinda crazy that the Nav gets 18 mpg combined, though. That’s what get if I’m not careful in my 20 year old Audi wagon.

I would have this over an escalade any day of the week.

“The Navigator doesn’t use a gear selector or a dial. It uses buttons, located on the center console, beneath the air vents. You get used to it after a few times, but I couldn’t figure out why this was something that needed redesigning.” Read more

massive 23-gallon gas tank, so filling it will definitely add up

One little Honda CR-V panic-braked as I came up beside him on I-87

Hot take: this IS the new Lincoln Continental. Read more

Also, don’t the drive modes change the electric steering... like a lot??

I’ve spent a lot of time in my friend’s non-Black Label version, and drove it for a couple of hours. I’m cheap, but I honestly think the Navigator is worth every penny.  If I had the means, I’d have one for sure. Unfortunately for me they’re not depreciating like the previous generation. 

I bet it still works for them... “it’s an accurate view of the flat earth, from the top!”

I have an Expedition Max, and visited Ireland a couple of years ago. Never even think about the size of the Expy in the States, but the whole time I was driving in Ireland (In a rented Qashqai) I was thinking about how impossible it would be to drive it there.

Having driven and spent plenty of time as a passenger in my buddies 2018 Yacht Club Navigator, pictures and the even high praise in this article, especially the interior, can’t do it justice.

I like reliability... so I would prefer the Lincoln.

This review pleases me. I’m glad they executed this well. For several years (2004-2014), the Navigator was a half-assed effort with corners cut where they should never have been cut.

I love that the first picture is 1/2 sky. Read more

TBH, I’d rather get this than a RR or G wagon.

This is kind of like asking what makes a s class worth x amount more than a Camry. Truth is from a purely technical standpoint it isn’t. But the people looking to buy this aren’t cross shopping the Palisade.

My f150 has a 33 gal. One of the best things about it too.

To be fair the AWD limited model with leather as pictured above is $47.5k, not $31k.

I was going to mention the globe graphic but go in a totally different direction. Something something I guess they won’t be selling any to upper class flat earthers....
