I've always wanted to drive one of these things at 80 and go around a sharp turn just to see how good I'm built

I'm glad to know others share the same impulse

I'm sure u can do this and figure that out with any vehicle that's not a ferrari

[@comethiburs2326]

i drive a renault kangoo. this thing scares me. i've got a high center of gravity but fuck all weight (2500ish lbs) and no grip thanks to the economy tyres, so a sharp turn at 80 will only lead to terminal oversteer and a spin when the rear gives up, not a flip. this thing WILL flip.

Im actually quite impressed at the longevity of the 3.5 twin turbo. My father bought a used 2016 F150 at around 50k, changes oil religiously, and the only major service its had was the ford reccomended "once through" at around 100k. Hes at 190k and still running perfect, not to mention none of the plentiful extras that havent failed.

[@shaunkennedy174]

It very very heavily depends on year models. People shit all over Ford and just come to the conclusion they’re all bad vehicles. Yet my dads 2005 F150 4.6 Triton is currently sitting at 272k with completely stock powertrain still runs like a top, the heat JUST went out on it finally and that is literally the most major issue it’s ever had in 15 years and almost 300k miles. 2015-2017’s are extremely solid F-150’s. Can’t say the same for same year models Silverados

[@ZachariaZuehlke]

Yep I've got a flex with the 1st gen 3.5 ecoboost gonna clock 206k soon with original turbos and an unopened engine 😊

[@Fatallica]

@@shaunkennedy174 that was what he had before this, an 01 F150 4.6 that he DROVE into the junkyard at 340k because he didnt want to replace the coil packs and decided it was time lmao. I think the yard owner bought it off him instead of scrapping it if im remembering correctly.

[@TwoDollarGararge]

My mom's 3.5 has 235k on her SHO he'll my 2.0 ecoboost has 321,000 it's all down to maintenance.

[@Henchman1977]

I have an Expedition L (Max here in Canada). I've had several people watch in wonder as I slide full sheets of drywall or plywood into it and casually close the tailgate. I can even get 14" lengths of trim in it if I work it right. Also tow a 27ft, 7200lb trailer (though I get HORRIBLE mileage doing, less than 8mpg) with family of 4, 2 big labs and our crap inside.

[@pibblesnbits]

I have a 20 year old GMC Yukon, that I do the same thing with. Love the utility of that car.

[@rorikkusu]

Unless you’re hauling gravel for a living, a big SUV will always have more space than an equivalent pickup truck, and you can actually use that space for other things that aren’t hauling stuff. Trucks are just so pointless for non commercial uses.

[@AaronHendu]

14 inch lengths of trim? Wow. Impressive.

[@thevanmancan4850]

It is also now dubbed the Expedition Max in the States.

[@superfisher4379]

That's not really true. Modern crew cab half tons are basically suburbans with a bed. They are for people who need an SUV but a cargo space for dirty things. I would love a suburban but I can't put anything wet, dirty, greasy, smelly in the back of it.

[@austindevejian4044]

I work at a Ford Lincoln dealer on Long Island and everyone loves making sure you KNOW they have money. They aren't 'humble' like the "I'm not a rich man" guy with tons of rich people toys and a house on the long island sound. See you in the service department for your cam phasers ;)

[@DaiAtlus79]

popular where i am with aspiring restaurateurs and retirees who have a lot of hidden wealth

[@giggiddy]

Make no mistake. People that have stupid money, might drive one of these for the comfort and power. But they will get out wearing a t-shirt, gym shorts, and some boat shoes. They will not run their big stupid mouth like the clowns described here in the comments. When you have substantial wealth, you spend a lot of it trying to hide that fact, and trying to keep people from kidnapping your kids. You don't pull into an establishment talking loud and looking stupid. Thats for the Jersey/ Lauderdale posers and the ones with means laugh at their ignorance😅😅😅

[@Poorgeniu5]

My dad was like that when he brought his 23' Acura MDX. Now he kinda regrets it as his co-workers and other employees are jealous, sometime he'll mention that he'll borrow my car to his job, lol.

[@louiearmstrong]

@@DaiAtlus79 where I live these are driven mostly by middle-upper middle class boat or RV people who instinctively "buy American," OR rideshare and taxi drivers who want to charge more for luxury third rows. I did a search and see dealers selling 100-150k mile 2018 navigators for $20k

They live on Long Island. It's hard not too.

[@kaunggoliathsan]

the ending quote is just sublime. Thank you Mr. Regular. kinda needed to hear that.

[@uDaniels]

the problem with the mind set of "it's okay to be comfortable" is it lets people forget the fact it's often at other's expense in one way or another. no ethical consumption or something something

[@NotTehJon]

Vids like this really highlight how a vast majority of the car market relies on people bagging on each other for whatever they buy. cause we know 90% of people on the road would be perfectly content with a Corolla, but they can't withstand the fact someone might judge them in the slightest.

[@urgetodrive]

I own a '19 Navigator in this spec. Thanks for pointing out it uses the same EcoBoost variant as the Raptor (not available in the Expedition until 2024 models). It embarrasses the GM V8 (Escalade, I'm looking at you) on power and MPG...and it takes regular gas (no premium required) as the cherry on top.

[@markbanash921]

Thank you for finally doing this one. My neighbor got rid of his Mercedes C-Class and got one of these. He's in construction and it makes perfect sense now.

[@jlcii]

Why is it whenever some Auto Enthusiast talk about Lincolns and cadillacs, they always degrade them down to be nothing more than gussied up Fords and chevys, but call an Audi a gussied up Volkswagen, or call a Porsche 911 a Volkswagen Beetle with extra horses in its ass, and the same Auto Enthusiast snobs are damn near ready to burn you at the stake for daring to come for their precious European luxury name plates, because all they ever give anything European is reference and worship. I feel like no matter what Lincoln or Cadillac does, they really can't win for losing when it comes to these badge snobs. If they made more unique and premium products, but then slap on a more premium price tag, they would be considered far too extreme and pricey just because of the brand name ( look at reactions to the new Cadillac celestiq). But then, if they keep their products as being luxury versions of their more mainstream stablemates, but have more reasonable pricing, they get shot down for being cheap, warmed over excuses for luxury. They treat these Brands like GM and Ford should just give up and discontinue them, but then we'll gladly stand the line for the next BMW with a crappy overly plastic engine, worship the ground it leaks oil on, and vehemently defend its cheaper quality by swiping back with excuses like "but it's fast and handles well! I'd rather have an exciting car that needs fixing than a boring car that's built well!" I swear, some Auto enthusiasts' biases and hypocrisy knows no bounds.

[@bobsteve4812]

The issue is it’s not like the American makes are built BETTER than the European ones. Tho I will agree even if the American makes made great cars they would prob still be made fun of because of their past of making garbage cars.

[@pontiacGXPfan]

for your end statement, Toyota is the worst of both

[@GlennDavidson]

I guess you have to figure out where a brand is just sharing parts and platform, and where it becomes more like badge engineering. It's not like non-US brands don't get pilloried for the same thing among auto-snobs, though it might not be so visible to the US market. Look at how Toyota's new Supra was greeted because it was based on the BMW Z4, or the Mazda Miata-derived Fiat Spider 124 before that. Though calling a 911 a Beetle with extra horses is stretching an analogy to breaking point - I'm pretty sure they share nothing in common bar maybe some financing details :D

[@TheGoddamnBacon]

"Worship the ground it leaks oil on" got a good laugh out of me. Well written.

[@brockfilmzinc1]

⁠@@bobsteve4812Europe has made garbage cars back then, they make garbage cars now.

[@jm-alan]

I think you're right - that quarter mile time suggests a power-to-weight comparable to a V6 Accord, which puts it just north of 500

[@PenskePC17]

Thats a lot of power for something like this.

[@FarginBastiges]

A few years ago, we were stuck behind one of these that was stopped at an exit booth on the Central Florida Greeneway. The toll collector walked back to us and told us that we were going to have to back up and exit the SunPass lane because the Navigator's electrical system shut down and because the gear shifter is electric, they couldn't even put it in neutral to push it out of the way, so they were having to wait for a tow truck. Worse yet, I got charged a fee because I didn't have a SunPass.

[@ThatsPety]

I am so sorry but that's fucking hilarious

[@Levibetz]

According to a quarter mile calculator 6800lbs takes ~468 wheel horsepower to get to a 14.2 quarter mile. I imagine the calculator is estimating some drag here too but yeah a big barn like this would have lots of drag, which would require even more power! I suspect you're right about it being underrated.

[@rubberwoody]

That calculator isn't updated for 10 speed autos

[@sfish6]

This was one of the best videos in a while and its crazy how much these depricate from 90-40k yet still having Mercedes level luxury

[@bassandtrebleclef]

yeah, but it's not a mercedes. it's a Ford. With Ford levels of engineering. Nice interior though.

[@sfish6]

@bassandtrebleclef very true, I'm not sure how reliable the engine and transmission are but everything on the inside is great

[@brockfilmzinc1]

⁠@@bassandtrebleclefIronic you say, because Mercedes has literally the lowest depreciation and resale value ever, for their level of engineering …

[@superleggera1900]

Interior looks nice when new but doesn't age very well, 30-40k miles and the leather is shiny, the plastics are scratched up, and there are creaks. Definitely a car you lease, or sell after a few years.

[@marcwhitman3493]

I used to work as a salesman at Lincoln when these came out in 2018 down here in Florida. During covid we had to deliver almost all the cars personally and it was always such a nice drive.

[@kebabaluba]

I find Naviator`s design a bit more clean and classy over say like Escalade`s, so i kinda like it more.

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

Ford dealer fleet tech here. We see those 3.5 liters BY THE HUNDREDS (although not for engine service) What you said about the engine isn’t particularly true. Anything breaks when you abuse it. We do oil changes by what the maintenance monitor calls for. Never seen any issues with oiling or anything like that.

[@Madhouse_Media]

Everyone tells me the 3.5 is shit. But I have one with just over 200k and the engine is the one thing in the car that ISN'T giving me fits. 🤣

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

@@Madhouse_Media I’d be more inclined to believe a tech that works on them regularly over a person speaking from a single point of view of their one single individual vehicle they own. Then again, just about every tech will tell you everything everywhere every time is shit

[@Madhouse_Media]

@@PigglyWigglyDeluxe Pretty much why I ignore techs when I want to know about reliability. Ordinary people seem to think the 3.5 is trash, but here's mine, along with the three other Duratec V6 I had with almost a million miles between them. Then again, I actually maintain shit so what do I know? 🤣

2018 Navigator Reserve L: The car for dads suffering a mid life crisis while wanting luxury on a budget because his wife have spent money on fake coupons snipped from newspapers, while losing stocks to the stockbros

[@DaiAtlus79]

exactly - ppl who brag about saving money on deals then piss that difference away on other financial decisions like overpaying for a trim level.

[@Madhouse_Media]

If you want luxury on a budget, you're not looking at a Navigator. It probably won't cost as much to maintain or repair compared to something like a Range Rover (that's where the Ford underpinnings are a big plus), but you're still shelling out 75 grand or more.

[@DaiAtlus79]

@@Madhouse_Media beyond cosmetics and a couple extras that you can still get in the explorer, a Navigator is just really a rebadge. same as Caddies over at GM theyre just a remix of an existing platform and not much more. Upkeep maybe isnt as bad but the sticker cost is about the same as that range rover.

[@PenskePC17]

A budget? You should probably look up the msrp 😂

[@man_on_wheelz]

As a Lincoln owner myself, you've described me and my overall thoughts perfectly in regard to other people and the car itself, well done lol. I'm not a rich man, I like how comfortable the seats are, and I'm perpetually waiting for its Fordness to show. Well, my car is a 2010 and I take good care of my Ecoboost engine, at 165,000 miles now and it's only just now starting to show its Ford foot.

[@Madhouse_Media]

Just remember... When it's Fordness starts to show, it isn't going to cost you as much to repair those super common Ford components. Can't say the same thing about a Benz or a Land Rover.

[@man_on_wheelz]

@@Madhouse_Media Oh I know… when I was looking for this car I could’ve opted for a BMW 7-Series for around the same price, and I really like the 7-series with the doctored up Bangel Butt! But I kept in mind the repair cost and steered well clear of it.

[@eriknephrongfr8847]

That second to last sentence nearly made me cry. You’re a wonderful writer.

[@mkel0385]

we had a 2015 navigator that we got with 55k miles. that we put 100k miles on in about 2.5 yeas and we loved it. the turbos blew under warranty and both front window regulators went but warranty covered it and we ran that car hard.

[@georgepepi3859]

The ending was excellent, love the feeling of melancholy mixed with nostalgia for things I’ve never done. If someone isn’t from America and wants to understand why we buy what we buy, and how those purchases make us feel, watch RCR episodes with very American cars. Comfort, size, anti-elitism, wealth born from good choices, pride of our past, all of it. Whether true or not, most of us feel that way, and when you step into a Yukon Denali, a Navigator, an Escalade, a town car, pickups, most Americans understand it. Even if it’s not their style or preference. RCR reminds me of our different, very silly, American car choices, and that I like the people who drive them.

[@GunnarMiller]

I wasn't aware that PennDOT now administered driver license tests, as when I passed my test over 40 years ago they were still given at the State Police barracks. That said, it was exactly the same thing you describe; people who were nervous about flunking in Berks County would sometimes be given the advice to have Mom drive them up past the Regular Car Reviews Tennis Club to Schuylkill County where the troopers were said to be "nicer". P.S. -5pts spelling for "Navagator" in the thumbnail ;-)

[@LimitedTimeRoman]

I've driven this thing. Absolutely brilliant and beautiful. Lincoln created this segment, and the luxe pickup segment.

[@MrJayrock620]

I worked as a salesman at a Ford Lincoln dealership during the 08 market crash. The GM would drive one as his demo, because we were always required to have one on site or on order but we sold 2 a year. As long as he had one, we didn’t have to order another one and we could mark it down to move it out.

[@huevas77]

I was a valet for 21 years until last month. I’ll say this about Lincoln - I’ve driven a lot of them. In all sorts of condition. Not one was uncomfortable. Even the ‘66 Continental - I was uncomfortable driving it in downtown San Francisco because I couldn’t see if I was inside my lane, but the seats and suspension were still comfortable.

[@CaptDust]

The perfect ride for the guy who wanted a Raptor but got veto'd because the seats were too stiff for their partner

[@AstralKreep]

[@BlindMansRevenge2002]

I must admit this was not a bad assessment of the Lincoln navigator whatsoever. Very fair very balanced. 3000 mile oil changes are a little extreme. 5000 miles with Fords full synthetic. Will keep these things running forever I’m a stress 5000 miles with Ford full synthetic.

[@SamLed1111]

What always pissed me off was that Lincoln never tried to put the power that the Escalade had, in the navigator. They had it but never used it.

[@Madhouse_Media]

Well, Lincoln isn't pretending to be a performance brand like Cadillac has been for the last 20 years or so. But still. In a vehicle this size I don't think anyone is going to complain about more power.

Luxury cars ALWAYS depreciate like no tommorow. Mainly due to more to go wrong along with high running costs like insurance etc. My advice.

[@mdx_vr]

I have one of these. Mine has had nothing but issues, it’s comfy. But with only 68k miles on it it’s already had to have the engine completely rebuilt due to lifter failure. The reverse camera has been replaced 3 times and the lower control arms 2 times. Don’t buy one. The windshield is a rock magnet I’ve had to replace the whole thing like 6 times.

Lincoln Navigator Reserve L. The official car of freshly minted grandparents who spent more time at the lake in their mid-20s through early 40s than they did with their children's upbringing. The same people who of a sudden can't keep their grubby hands off the grandbabies because "I jUsT LLLLLAAAAAAAWWWWWVVVVVEEEE kiDS!" However, the voice inside your head knows well enough that not only are they trying to make up for lost time, you also know they want to gaslight you into thinking they were good parents, so when their flame is extinguished and it's their turn to be ushered into the chamber of memories, their legacy is solidified. But you know their legacy is about as solid as the build quality of the Ford Fusion Titanium they traded for this behemoth, which is now the same size as the lie they're desperately trying to cover up.

I seriously doubt any rental car company with these Lincolns is doing oil changes that frequently.

aah yes, the lincoln navagator. Not to be confused with the navigator.

If Karens had their own grand wizard I imagine this is what they'd drive

[@Trussme96]

The Grand Wizard of Karens will always drive an Audi

[@CalvinJGreen]

Check what Elizabeth Warren drives and let's find out 😂.

[@LG123ABC]

@@Trussme96I thought it was the Porsche Cayenne.

[@Vonwafenburg]

Definitely a Cayenne or Q7 that the husband paid for

[@ThatsPety]

Nah that honor belongs to the cayenne

[@owenauto]

The general manager at the dealership I work at drives one of these as his demo, when he sent it down to service to get an oil change all the mechanics cringed because it’s so damn long they have to use a special rack to get it up in the air, the jack points are too far apart for a normal rack😂

[@Nekzus]

If they're anything like my Expedition, they also have a couple of janky and awkward aeroshields that need to come off. With two different bolt sizes to boot.

[@Motley-Croo]

The Lincoln has the raptor engine and it’s 450 hp

That new Road Glide CVO going by at the end was nice!

[@shaesham]

That interior really does look nice by any standard.

Thanks Mr. R. Have a nice week too.

[@chriss526]

Love the closing comments on this. Great advice for anyone!

[@Cmarshec8]

I have a Gen 1 3.5 ecoboost in my 2011 F150 - 206K miles with oil change semi synthetic at 4K intervals. No issues :)

Let's not forget the short-lived Chrysler Aspen

[@RDEnduro]

If i see that on the jobsite I know the owner is there, baller

[@mikecronis]

Great review. Honestly just a Ford EcoVan with a tux and bow-tie, a varsity quarterback at the prom. Too bad Lincoln doesn't make a sedan version of this.

[@bwofficial1776]

Lincoln made the Continental and nobody bought it.

[@ferozmovie]

I coulda sworn the original thumbnail said “navagator” instead of navigator earlier today

[@jlang8213]

5:33 the Lincoln Town car (and I think older Continentals sat 6. Also, It looks like that Navi seats 7.

[@Rayrard]

Navigator, the car for guys who need to have a sensor to warn them they may hit the height pole at Wawa

[@Vonwafenburg]

What's wrong with wanting nice things?

[@bwofficial1776]

Nothing. Being mad at people for wanting nice things is actually jealousy of those who have nice things.

Is it true that Regular Car Reviews is / was the dean of the English department at HACC?!?
