Mr. Cairo, the LX570 has never been the best of the luxury brands and it's so old and long in the tooth now, that it will have to be put out to pasture.
I love the musical styles chosen for this review. It's as if it's a retro review of a modern car. I know it's been said everywhere, but it's cool how the show has kept the same formula for road tests in the almost 4 decades it's been on the air.
In a few years this will cost 35000 and will still look just as good. I'll take this or the Continental....but that upcoming Aviator look like it's going to be a smash hit....
Acc0rd79 - Hey what are you doing here ? It was cool to see we were looking at the same thing. Just wanted to say hello. Now I better get back to your channel.
It’s good to see the Lincoln Navigator return to the top of the American luxury SUV segment. Ford’s Kentucky plant can’t churn these out fast enough for customers to buy.
I see, Detroit has found a way to make sure these cars don't end up in the ghetto. Ironically, that also means these cars will never end up in Detroit.
I know it's not what the typical buyer wants in a vehicle like this, but if they'd give it just a hint of off-road ruggedness, I'd consider it. It could be done without compromising the luxury much at all.
I always loved the 2nd nav! And now this one! Yes they hit the nail on this one! And they went back to there roots! Glad they put the 90s look on this like before! And v6???!!! Ummmmm i remember they had v8s in 90s! And the seats and roof lining to the 90 colors red and blue baby blue seats wow i like!!! BUT the PRICE! HELL NO! i only see the other side of rice would buy this! You know what i mean yall!! But they did a good job on this one! If only i had the coins to get this! But I'm not Donald Trump!...lmao
Dajour D I agree with you the navigator was amazing back then and now and it’s Uber luxurious but it’s a luxury SUV I mean if they added cool things to match the price like they kinda did it would make sense but still Lincoln is a luxury car company so you should expect it
20.6 average MPG. Did you guys drive downhill for the entire test? Everywhere else these trucks are missing the EPA estimates. Usually averaging 15mpg at best
We owned the 1998 Navigator and was wonderful. If it wasn't for an accident we would still have it. General Motors made a really great vehicle out of the Navigator!
They start off talking about the 90s Navigator and Escalade and conclude the Navigator missed the mark. But actually, when the Navigator was originally released, it out sold the Escalade for a few years. Ford let it rot on the vine though.
I must admit, this new Navigator is beautiful but what’s it gonna be like after let’s say 4 yrs on the road and 49k. Will it hold up or fall apart like legos. Quality is not something that we are used to anymore unfortunately, o wait, a new model will come out by than and we will forget about this stunning 2018 Navigator.
14.5s only reaches the small block muscle cars. The big blocks muscle classic such as Chevelle SS LS6 454, All the late 60's Hemis and the most powerful Ford Muscles orbits around the mid to low 13s... Some special versions including the big blocks full sizes pre muscle Era like the mythical Z11 427 Impalas could reach the low 12s or even high 11s...
For the money the Lexus LX is the better buy. It still has the V8 and Toyota quality/resale value. This thing will be in the ghetto within 4-5 years and drop to under $10K in trade well before 10 years while the LX will still be worth well over $10K over 20 years from new.
Lincolns new approach is great but they need to bring it to every vehicle. The nautilus and MKZ, and even the continental, might have the new grille but they still share far too much with their ford counterparts
How can we demand them to give us a V8 option ? I’m simply not buying that EcoBoost shit, that floating roofline as we know is screaming Range Rover with a Jaguar grille but they did own the two ( PAG ), impressed though they should make a 5.0 Model or at least as an option when this new next gen Escalade drops to hold its ground !
Corey Adams, why V8 ? Ford is even using the EcoBoost in the Ford GT. The Navigator has 450 horsepower and 510 lbs ft torque. It runs the quarter mile 14.5 seconds
Corey Adams Did you hear the stats on that engine/trans combo? A v8 could not be that efficient and powerful. For what purpose would they offer it? Exhaust sound? C'mon dude!
0-60 in 5.9 seconds. Was under the impression that aluminum everything knocked out 750 lbs across the board. At 450 hp and 510 lbs ft and awd, this is either a pig or really over rated
QuietStormX, the interior of the Navigator is way nicer than the Escalade. The 6.2 V8 is rated at 420 HP and 460 lbs ft of torque The 3.5 V6 EcoBoost is rated at 450 HP and 510 lbs ft of torque
I can never make it through these videos. The music is straight of a 90s tutorial and the old man is screaming like he's an AM radio station host. 2 minutes in that's all I could do.
Having bought one, I'd definitely disagree. Shopping around, the Tahoe Premier was $75,000. The Escalade was about $90,000, but none of them came close to the design, interior luxury, or beautiful classy exterior.
OMG did you take the music str8 from the 91 season? Jesus the music is so glaring its hard to see the suv behind it. Its not loud its terribly dated and bad. Someone had to have put this in as a joke, im not laughing! Haha no i am.
Seriously? This is what impresses people? Get into a similarly priced Range Rover, and that is what real luxury is. Not this plastichrome POS Ford. Though I will admit, the Lincoln will definitely need far fewer trips to the dealer for service.
An absolute waste of money, coupled with too much tech, a bad engine/trans combo, body panels destined to fall off in the first 2 years, and it wont sell for more than $8k in a couple of years on dealer lots. My take? Dont even bother waiting it out for asecond hand model. Skip this, and the escalade, and buy something reliable and worth your money.
L RulesTheWorld I think your take is for you. Everything you said was an over-exaggeration to the 10th power and wholly untrue. But thank you for sharing your prognostication. I hope you aren't giving advice in real life on any other topics.
