I'm a Dearborn guy, but I wouldn't buy a modern Ford over a Japanese or Korean car. However, I would easily buy a Continental over a Genesis. So in short, yeah, Lincoln's killing it.

Then on top of that the brand new Navigator isn’t even more desirable than the current and outgoing Cadillac Escalade which is 6 years old because it *CONTINUES* to effortlessly outsell the new Navigator. Lol. So please explain yourself because you sound ridiculous and very delusional.

[@imnotusingmyrealname4566]

As always great shots of the car! The quality is just amazing, of your videos and of the Aviator.

[@FreeMagneticEnergy2]

🚨Guys!!! I don’t know if you read the reviews posted underneath your videos, but I’d like to start off by saying that the Lincoln Aviator is a Lincoln Navigator wannabe. Secondly, the look of the Lincoln Navigator blows away the look of the Lincoln Aviator. Lastly, the snow tires recommended for this vehicle are all wrong. Those are snow tires wannabes. Actual tires for winter travel are actually called winter tires. They are far more aggressive in the tread design which are made for snow country. The tires you showed are suited to get you home from work at best. Those who live in snow country know better. Nevertheless, I love the way you produce your videos!❤️

[@Listman11]

The Aviator blows away the XT6 in pretty much every way. We are going to cross shop the Volvo XC90 and the Lincoln Aviator. The XC90 has long been my favorite, but the Aviator looks so nice, I don’t think I could buy the Volvo without giving the Lincoln a chance or I’d always be wondering what-if.

[@user-pf7fy2vf4s]

[@antonioakiki3716]

I live in Sweden and I would say go for the aviator without even having driven it. The xc99 is very noisy, engine and just general insulation...

[@GokuInstinct1]

Go for the Aviator!

[@mybro727]

blackpower // yes. And it doesn’t compete in the same market as the XT6 anyway. The Cadillac is a less expensive FWD CUV. This is not.

[@mavsguy842]

The base Aviator actually starts less expensive than the XT6, but can get quite a bit more expensive than the XT6. Lincoln and Cadillac may have taken different approaches, but the XT6 and Aviator certainly compete with each other. Which other Cadillac would compete with the Aviator, or which other Lincoln would compete with the XT6?

Why the hell is there like a solid 1 second delay in response when Yuri punches the throttle from a standstill? I'm not talking about the long turbo lag. I'm talking about the vehicle not even moving immediately when he punches the throttle. That's not acceptable. That aside, Lincoln did an amazing job with the styling inside and out. Looks like true American luxury...in CUV form. It look elegant and classy. That interior is the icing on the cake. Wow. Cadillac interiors (the whole lot of them) look like they're not even trying. They basically have the level of styling of the average compact economy car these days.
