[@juliekavanaugh4993]

You mentioned that this Lincoln was a comparison to the Volvo XC90 .. Which of the two would you buy if it were your money and why?

[@T16-s5o]

Ford is not playing around. Lincoln resale values were higher than Audi, BMW, Mercedes, and Cadillac last year, this is big for Lincoln because it shows that their image is improving.

[@biglee13m]

Most of the Ford lineup isn't very competitive just now but the new Lincolns are really well done. Years ago, I thought they were just going to turn into a concierge service.

[@jordanchopra5038]

I've read several owners complaining about major issues with their new Aviators. If I was in the market, I'd wait until next year's model to purchase one of these. People are reporting transmission and engine problems within 3-5 days from what I recall. Guess that's what happens when you rush build something....

[@henryortizjr1533]

Lincoln is trying harder as of late. Hopefully they keep improving.

[@RAY-THE-WAY]

@@jordanchopra5038 that's because Fords shitty CEO jim Hackett decided to rush to retool an old assembly plant in a year (retooling takes years). So now all the new explorers and aviators have problems

[@Thehubb1]

Lincoln parked a demo one of these outside the entrance of my gym over the summer and they are impressive in person. The interior is absolutely gorgeous and sitting in it definitely feels like they're on that BMW/Benz level. Love that there's a higher end option that doesn't come with German reliability issues

[@danovido8946]

I have a 2004 Aviator California Special (CS) with 70K on it. It has been a wonderful SUV that rides so smooth and purrs like a cat with its Mustang Bulitt engine. Looking forward to one day adding this gorgeous SUB to my garage. Thank you!

[@docthatrocks]

We just bought a fully loaded Reserve model this weekend when we planned on just looking at this vehicle and the Cadillac XT6. We had no intention of buying anything until this summer. After test driving the Aviator we were hooked! We went back to the dealership afterwards to test drive the XT6. Big mistake! Immediately after sitting in the XT6 there was no comparison. The Cadillac felt cheaper and less luxurious than the Lincoln. The general manager came out and asked if I was planning to test drive the XT6 after just having test driven the Aviator. He said don’t even bother. Nothing will change your mind and get you to consider buying the XT6 after driving it. He informed us that they have been selling about 5 Lincolns (Navigator/Aviator) for every Cadillac (Escalade/XT6). The dealership was a huge one that sold Lincoln, Cadillac, and Chevy in their respective buildings. He even said many people have been trading in their Cadillacs to get into the Lincolns. As far as the quality, craftsmanship, and build I have been completely floored by the way Lincoln has elevated their game! We traded in a 2003 Navigator that I was the original owner of. Back then it was amazing. But the difference since then has been leaps and bounds. We’ve even owned a 2013 Cadillac SRX and a 2013 CTS-V and again the quality, build, craftsmanship, and luxury are vastly different in the current Aviator! Lincoln has hit a home run with this vehicle! As far as the wind noise and rattles that you experienced, our vehicle didn’t have any issues when we drove it 180 miles home from where we purchased it from. I know after having purchased at least 10 different new vehicles in the past that some vehicles may inherently have some issues that are only present every now and then and seem to be outliers from the rest. Awesome review, BTW!

[@robc6362]

Overall a good review - Would've been 1/2 as long if you hadn't used the word "Ford" 752 times... Yes it's made by Ford Motor Company, but it's a Lincoln... Hopefully you and other reviewers will stop comparing Ford to Lincoln - unless of course you do the same with Toyota (Land Cruiser) vs Lexus (LX); Cadillac (Escalade) vs GMC (Denali) vs Chevy (Tahoe) etc. Some of these vehicles are so similar, you've only been able to tell the difference - by the price tag... I doubt FoMoCo would develop a Lincoln to be in competition with a Ford product. So please compare FoMoCo products to comparable other auto brands and not with each other.
