After a lot of thought, I just bought an Aviator. A little more money than I wanted to spend but I am loving it and it is fun to drive. It will get up and scat, very comfortable seats, very quiet interior and that Revel stereo system is a banger system! Very satisfied right now.

[@1027scott]

Just got our 2025 Aviator Reserve 201A with jet package and fully loaded. We love it. So comfortable and love the power.

[@mraetnts]

To all companies ever, please integrate the tablet into the dash instead of sticking straight out of the top like a tombstone. Looks so cheap, like an afterthought. Glad to see V6 and no turbo 4 banger.

[@O.G.LIL-MAN]

Hell no. For the past 15 years from Volvo to Ram to Mercedes to Ford to Tesla and others have ALL had tablet style center stack screens...time to move on from everyone having those just like how every company likes to put headlights low on the bumpers now.

[@TheDominic1612]

The new design is so impressive

[@janakharp]

This was so helpful!Another wonderful video from you guys! Especially since after viewing over 20 + videos of y'all, and settling on pretty much getting an Acura MDX advance or a-spec advance, just trying to compare what else I should look at. This is way over what I want to spend. I might as well get a BMW for that price if spending that much. 🤔😅 the vehicle ranking chart y'all have are just so invaluable, I cannot stress enough using those! Awesome!

[@CarGeek360]

Get the MDX if you like it, they last a long time

[@CarConfections]

This is why we do what we do 😊 thank you for the kind words!

[@joshuakarp2586]

This is great guys! I always love your videos.

[@CarGeek360]

I’ll take this over a MDX Type-S (which is in the same playing field) but the standard MDX is more reliable and cheaper, lease the Aviator and buy the MDX imo, both fabulous choices

[@Ethan-eo9vg]

MDX just makes no sense if you want a budget luxury car get a fully loaded Palisade

[@CarGeek360]

@ the MDX is sportier than the Palisade, they cater to different client bases

[@alexmartishius]

@@Ethan-eo9vgby your logic, no luxury car purchase ever makes sense. Btw why would you buy a new palisade, that makes no sense! Buy a used palisade!

[@Ethan-eo9vg]

@ True 23 palisade is good too

[@hamaali479]

love lincoln all models😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@carmas54]

I looked at those and decided to get the E450 MB all terrain and glad I did.

[@josephpistorio-sc9rf]

Great vid! I test drove this before buying the '25 MDX TS. No contest when I look at driving experience, reliability, price, resale, and styling.

[@CarConfections]

Thanks!

[@TheKingkingg]

Looks awesome...reliability and resale value among others to consider why I refer my mbx type S

[@DominionAnako-bb7ry]

Beautiful car ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dtay8913]

No question. Lincoln has been absolutely slaying it with design and technology lately.

[@yankeesusa1]

Definitely aviator MDX. Question now would be reliability. That's Lincoln though is so nice. If it's better quality than the vw Atlas then it's a better buy.

[@beekaye1496]

Great review, The Aviator is sexy and looks great, I may wait to see if the really upgraded the interior like the Navigator and Nautilus. I also would also use reliable data to negotiate or just lease it ensuring they take care of the maintenance throughout the lease.

[@trikytrak2583]

Looks nice but that seems expensive. Not sure Lincoln has the reliability to charge that much.

[@alariaaurora8456]

16:10' That was unexpected 😂😂😂😂

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Excellent review and happy Saturday!😸 (Third row rating will vary with in law size)

[@OPC249]

Never seen a brand new vehicle with such deep creases in the leather

[@djkrush3481]

WOW looks so much better without the LINCOLN letters on the back! I may actually do this to mine now lol

[@CarConfections]

Glad we could show you an example 😂

[@KhrissyDaDon]

The factory 🏭 rushed this example 😅 lol, the “Lincoln” script being missing, the start up chime glitch, hope the dealer pulled this off the lot!

[@geraldweston6872]

A direct Aviator vs MDX comparison video is due

[@joecool9739]

Lincoln is leagues ahead of lowly Acura

[@TheKingxj]

Interior needs to be updated 💯

[@jenniferbrito846]

Do Navigator too

[@خالدالشريقي-ن3ل]

I have 2020 aviator and almost same just the front side changed little

[@nateisright]

Luxury is used as a nonsense marketing word usually. The ultimate luxury is comfort and comfort is a product of engineering and build quality. You cannot expect good build quality unless the engineering is good. Good engineering is a function of quality of materials used and how they are used. In my experience, the fewer decision makers, constraints, goals, parts, seams, systems the better the result (think Steve Jobs). That is what I think of luxury.

[@bronxkid2348]

Hey Nate good analysis so in your opinion what is the best luxury brand? I am contemplating on what to get.

[@nateisright]

@ thanks. Depends on what shape you like. I would drive the Lexus ES and LC (V8) to feel how a well built car should be. Those are my benchmarks. Happy shopping

[@bronxkid2348]

@nateisright used to own 2 ES cars they were good I am 9n the market for SUV the GX is Ok feel like Lexus fell off with their quality it looks plain on the inside.

[@nateisright]

@@bronxkid2348 SUV. The GX intrigues me, but it’s too new for me to trust it. I would probably get a pre-2020 G Wagon if money was no object. Pickups have better residuals than SUVs, so I’m driving a ten year old Platinum F150. It’s comfortable and capable. If I were getting a new truck, it would probably be another F150. Hope this helps

[@blacironman1]

Have they ever done a defender. Cannot find a video from them

[@CarConfections]

Unfortunately not. Land Rover has still never provided us with a car to review :/ hopefully in the near future that will change!

[@G-Rated]

Reminds me of the old Mercury SUVs in the rear. Lincoln design language ages like milk. 🥛

[@Retired_Radio_Ron]

Drew! “D” is for drive…”R” is for reverse! 😂😂😂😂. Where do you come up with this stuff?

[@hasanrubel4567]

I want to know something, please tell me. I want to buy a car Volvo xc 90 Lincoln aviator Which one would be better? Please let me know Thanh’s

[@CarConfections]

Personally, I'd go for the Volvo. -Drew

[@jimcole2648]

I’ll still wait for the inline 6 hurricane in the Grand Cherokee later this year.

[@HardyHempstead]

Piano black industry wide needs to go! It's a scratch and smudge magnet!

[@lilred1107]

Sucks that the thing is already glitching playing the Ford chime

[@Roadbunny777]

That to show you it's still a Ford, that's why the sound effects sneaking in 😮

[@jackhglass]

it would look so much better with a black painted roof

[@NOVISHOT44]

Chery Aviator !

[@jordanr1987]

typical ford production - forgetting their freaking branding on the back lol where's the QC these days

[@brandonyen7837]

Crazy with all those added on stuff and the price goes up to $83k 😂

[@josephpayton2055]

Car forgot it was a Lincoln for a segment 😭. No Lincoln badge on the back either?? I think this unit maybe incomplete. They need to send it back.

[@Chilibeanz559]

So, it's just a Ford Explorer with some different clothes on, for what $10-$15k more?

[@naveenthemachine]

That’s not a bad thing. The explorers already RWD to begin with. Reviewers have said the explorer has the performance and driving dynamics of a bmw x5 which is exceptionally high praise. This shows how high the cars aiming to compete. It drives like a more expensive vehicle. So the aviator being a fancy version of that is fine because you’re getting the driving dynamics and performance of an x5 with nicer materials

[@paulfazi]

Really wanted to like this to replace our RX-L, then I heard that stupid Ford Chime- can’t do it.

[@briankay5384]

Premium unleaded ?

[@CarConfections]

Yes

[@J_Starr007]

Not that I'm a fan of the full dash infotainment screen but this definitely should've gotten it if the Nautilus and Navigator got it. I love Lincoln's new design language, all of their cars/trucks are beautiful..

[@alexmartishius]

I’d still take an MDX Type S for almost $10k less than this - and it’s a better looking car anyway.

[@scottbrawley407]

2025 Lincoln Aviator Reserve II Dynamic Handling Package 3.0L V6 10-Speed Automatic 4X4!

[@nicsamazingpinballchannel7688]

Good looks but with a useless third row and sub-31” loading height… won’t be good for hauling friends or pinball machines.

[@danhquang4429]

Why don’t have tv screen for B seat😡

[@cabbagehead8082]

At 80k Canadian you can find literally dozens of better cars

[@naveenthemachine]

No there are also worse cars. The Germans similarly equipped will be significantly more expensive

[@cabbagehead8082]

@naveenthemachine and significantly way better and faster

[@خالدالشريقي-ن3ل]

It is soft closing ?!! Doors

[@937553]

Terrible resale value. Would avoid it because of that & get a Lexus TX or Acura MDX.

[@benven2161]

I don’t think that it’s a problem with those who can afford it!

[@naveenthemachine]

I’d take it over an MDX. It’s a toss up between this and the gv80

[@CarGeek360]

Fair take, I’d take an Aviator over a MDX if I was leasing but I’d def prefer to buy a MDX over an Aviator as the MDX will last and not cause problems, both are at the top of the segment imo

[@markovwms]

7:04 😂😂😂 Lincoln do better

[@andyleo8418]

Lincoln and Infiniti will gone within 5 years. Bank on it.

[@DisneyMusicVideos]

I can see that since both of their lineups are so tiny compared with other luxury brands.

[@Shifts_41]

You guys missed the real competitor the jeep grand cherokee L

[@Blahblahblahblah-c4h]

No interior ambient lighting, really?

[@123souldedout321]

Reliability isn’t there. Toyota, Honda, Mazda only until others can prove to be reliable long term.

[@CarGeek360]

Agreed though we do have a MDX and I think the Aviator is the better car by a small margin if reliability isn’t a concern, I’d def feel a lot more comfortable owning a MDX tho

[@dtay8913]

Toyota: recalled and completely replaced 100,000 engines in the tundra and lexus gx, Tacoma has axel issues, corolla gr has had engine fires, and Toyotas solutions were to drive slower but sure they're "reliable"

[@richboy3860]

Just because you can only afford a Corolla doesn’t mean other brands are not reliable. Smh!

[@123souldedout321]

I have enough money to send you a tow truck. No worries little fella.

[@newswanofficial]

those brands don’t compete with lincoln

[@AlexAlex-gs1xh]

Yes it is better than the overpriced acuras that have less features, small screens

[@doubleclutchonline5811]

The Chinese have saved Lincoln. Frankly, this could have never come from Dearborn.

[@HALWG51]

It's a gussied up Ford Explorer.

[@EmmanuelJaspe-sg8cu]

First

[@viktorandy6080]

Horrible car. Took it for rent with just 6k miles on it. Multimedia glitched everyday. Assembled without any quality checks.

[@montdiamonds5738]

Better than the Ford Explorer that’s for sure 📠

[@Alrounderrrr]

Stupid ford car, will never buy again , very bad experience with the company

[@Qweet_]

?? honda accord 2025 rear lights looking ahah

[@jamesliu6532]

look at chinese vision avaitor. Lincoln NA they dont know how to build better interior , big vehicle and a tiny screen. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJXLe2yXr6-Zos0

[@briandevine1286]

Early!

[@CalebHerscher]

Poor quality vehicle, do your homework before to waste your money…

[@AMTex-it-ek7vb]

still Lincoln junk, had one

[@benwalter1221]

The back end still looks like a Dodge Durango knockoff

[@tahran5782]

Well at least it's better than that Lincoln navigator eww

[@grandpadre8811]

Looks like Ford is trying to recoup it's loss in EVs.
