Good evening guys! Those of you up this late will be among the first to watch our First Look review on the 2025 Aviator we filmed earlier today! Big shoutout to Cole from TFL for shooting this video for us. We also just wanted to clarify that the Aviator in the video is actually NOT a Black Label trim, but a Reserve trim with the Jet Appearance package. Apologize for the confusion!
Why are you not properly reviewing these vehicles. Most of the information you provided are lame. You didn't even try. I just drove one of these and helped the dealership sell the car to a guy standing next to me. These things (Aviator) got everything and its not even a Black Label, especially this one you reviewed. Man, you gotta get your review right, especially on American Brands. That screen for the rear seats have always been there from the very first 2020 Aviator model. Good grief. Clearly you haven't been in an Aviator before.
I like the exterior styling and front row seating interior layout as I think it looks really nice, but where it falls apart for me is second and third row seats. It’s like they just gave up were like get me some blocky fold seats and stick them in there oh and make the headrests collapse inwards into the seat by leaving some large cutouts. Yeah let’s do that.
Actually you are in a reserve model all Aviators come with 2nd row captains chairs and they heated and cool 2nd row seats. Black label has different interiors thats new chocalate color reserve seats.
I haven't seen a vehicle yet that looks good with "all-black-wheels" . . I've just never liked that look - even though, many people do now days. ( I didn't even like it when I WAS young, either LOL )
I have a 2022 Aviator Black label and love it. I was exited to see the Nautilus change and hoped it to go into the Aviator. I'm bummed it is not. Also, not much has changed besides some stuff moved around and the front. Really disappointed
Front end looks good but the dude profile looks a mess. Wheels look tiny and it always looks rear heavy and tilted. Doesn’t have the stance it looks like it’d have from the front at all to me. Something’s off.
FYI the seats are not working properly, because they don’t work properly on full production models either 😂😂; source: a family member whose wife I convinced to buy an aviator last year (over a bronco of all things), and now he gives me a call with any issues, which are aplenty
For those interested, the calls I have gotten so far are seats not folding down, some electric issue that the the dealership could not figure out while they worked on seats not folding down, ticking sounds from one of the axle, so nothing very serious so far
Sad how much guessing you do... This is not a black label, The rear seat screen is not a new addition, Lincoln has offered rear seat ventilation from all the way back in 2010 from MKT and always for the aviator as part of a package.
They do offer cool seats for the rear passenger you guys stop putting our American vehicles down I'm tired of it or I'm going to cancel my subscription to this channel
What is wrong with you just because it’s American doesn’t mean that we can’t point out the flaws if it did not have rear ventilated seats it’s always been true that European luxury has always been better then American “luxury” up until recent American “luxury”if you can even call it that has just been rebadge fords and Chevys with a 25 percent markup😂😂
@@dynamicremakes5592 He ain't wrong. He is absolutely right. There is heated and cool rear seats. I just drove one today when i went in for a warranty service and its not even a Black Label, its a Reserve with every option including heated and ventilated rear seats. Redline needs to actually check, its literally right there.
Nice vehicles at Lincoln, but the brand is a total snooze. All SUVs and nothing exciting for anyone that wants anything more. The brand and sales have been stagnant for years. They need something that isn't based on a Ford.
I’ve always loved the Aviator’s design, one of my dream cars and still is, and this refresh never seems to disappoint me, even though the previous Aviator looked nearly perfect. Can’t wait to see a driving video on this car!!!! Keep up the good work man and I love your videos as always 👏👏👏
First, that’s not the Black Label trim. It’s a reserve with the jet appearance package (big difference between the 2). Also, that second row touch screen is not new at all. It’s been there since 2020! Adding on… ventilated 2nd row seats are standard on this, and lastly blue cruise is free for 4 years not 90 days. Do some homework before posting reviews!
@@regardie99Ok..take the black out then pal. Roll through the hood and when your "homies" say "nice whip" you can say..."yeah, its the blackout package...that's how I roll" LOL
Looks elderly, not classy, outdated and lazy with those tacked on screens. Ford/Lincoln is really failing on making their vehicles desirable the last few years. They got it right with the Nautalis with that massive screen it really kicks it up and into the view of more tech focused buyers, but the rest of the lineup? Massive meh. Boring luxury isn't sexy, it just doesn't work anymore.
They modified the refresh rate of the LED headlights so they look like they are flowing or “dancing” when recorded. Well done Lincoln, I’ve been saying for car makers to do this for years.
@@weirdshibainuThey do sell, except it’s not profitable enough for the manufacturers discontinue them anyway. The Fusion and MKZ were high sellers in the US
I love our 2020 touring pluggable. We got 24-27 MPG on the highway at 80 MPH. The battery saved us bank! I drove that car almost 20 miles per day doing errands for 4 months before taking it for any longer trips. We are both retired. I didn’t fill the tank during all those months. The pluggable option also gave use 100 more HP and 200 lbs more torque and yes, you really feel the increase in power.
The Tx is nowhere near as nice or as competitive as the nautilus You’d be wasting money with the TX. The aviator over far more than any TX or RX ever could and ever will
No you wouldn’t 😂 With all due respect, the RX is probably the worst option in the class. You’re better off biting the bullet with the nautilus or aviator In every category the RX falls way behind the competition and there’s no way to give credit where it’s due because of the sad reality that the competition does the exact same thing but better If the luxury of reliability matters get a corolla or civic. Not a luxury car
I don't notice that too much. At least it's not like the Car Confections brothers who say "as well" at the end of every sentence. You'd have alcohol toxicity if played that drinking game.
Ikr. Because the TX is quite simply the worst luxury suv in the class. It’s the worst. In every category it really falls way behind the competition Compared to any other rival the TX is dead on arrival
7:16 I don't understand why they got rid of so many of the physical HVAC controls the Aviator used to have & are putting those buttons virtually in the center screen 🤦🏽♂️🙄
I’m About to go get one of those SUVs Soo excited I was in car accident lost my family car Toyota sienna 😢 But soon when settlement $$ I’ll be ready 🎉🎉🎉
I wish they had the 48inch screen like the nautilus or the nautilus had a 3rd row..love both of them though. Makes such a hard choice to make if only these two previously mentioned were put into place
5 years already? I remember the video you made for Lincoln a few years ago, how time flies! This 2025 model is gorgeous, thanks Sofyan! Great review as always!
Disappointed that a hybrid is not offered. The stance of the vehicle is off putting and the materials, 2nd and 3row seating comfort and convenience are all lacking.
But the explorers RWD so it drives like an x5 and it has a double wishbone front. And the explorers not supposed to compete w the x5 Thats why it can get away with it
The center console in the second row take away from the allure of captains chairs. That’s pass through area is much needed floor space if you have kids or are on a toad trip. Other than that it’s pretty amazing. I’m sure most people appreciate the second row center console.
@@mustasheolll2020 that's a matter of taste. This one is definitely ugly imo. They gone mad with that front grill void then slap a limp light strip on top of it. 🤦♂️
