I have the ‘19 Navigator and I love it. My husband absolutely hates the seats, but he’s a big guy. I love the adjustability. The stereo is amazing. The sunroof is stunning. It’s quite sleek honestly. All of my almost 6 ft teenage boys can sit in the third row with ample leg and head room. If you have a big family, just get the Navigator. I test drove an Escalade, a Yukon, a Suburban.. none can come close. They just don’t have that snappy get up and go like the Navigator. Love the twin turbo V6 instead of the big lurching V8. I drove an Expedition platinum before and they are very similar.. but the trim levels on the Navigator are costly but worth it. Also- if you are holding the key or have it in your purse, you can open and close the trunk by just kicking your foot under the tow hitch. VERY helpful for moms with hands full.
Go for the Cadillac! We just went through a lemon buyback with our 2019 Lincoln. The reliability was so poor. We drove a loaner car more than the vehicle we were spending $700/mo for!
I’d go Aviator. I had a 2018 Cadillac XT5. Honestly loved it but I wanted a something new lol test drove a 2021 Cadillac xt6 because I wanted more space and it was EXACTLY like my XT5, same features and everything, just a new year and bigger. (Which is fine, I just wanted newer technology) fast forward, I finally landed on the 2021 Lincoln Aviator and I fell in love 😻. I have not had a problem. I know some people did, but that is common when a new model comes out. I’m also on a fb forum for the car and most people are happy with the 2020-2021 years. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I’ve had mine for about 4 months now and no regrets.
Yes! I have just jumped on the Lincoln line. I have the 2021 Lincoln Navigator and there are some similarities. Love the space below the center console in the front! I never looked at the Aviator, but it looks amazing! And it’s Flush...which means flat.
I have this car in the Asher Gray and love it! My kids are a little older but it fits 4 boosters comfortably and the kids just step over the cup holders to get in the back. I love the push button shifter now even though at first I was a little skeptical. I also got the package with the TVs which is great for no fighting 😂. There is also a foot sensor for the tailgate which I found by accident.
I'm seriously considering one after driving a Honda Odyssey for years. However, I'm reading about all of these negative reviews with people driving it off the lot and immediately having issues. I know this is an old post, but I would love to know if you still like your aviator or if it's having issues as well??
You were right for the most part. The cargo could be flat and the third row could lay flat but that wouldn't necessarily mean they line up together. Like others posters have said it's flush, meaning the cargo and the third row line up seamlessly.
Flush. Is level with a surface. - so it blends two surfaces together. Flat means the same thing but flush is the correct word because you are commenting on the design of the tailgate. They meant for it to be flush with the rest of the car to provide a premium aesthetic.
This was a great review. Great because it was honest and you tried to stay objective at the same time highlighting the family need attributes. The car doesn’t live up to its look or price which is was makes this a great review.
I have this car and originally I wanted the 2nd row bench like you selected BUT after seeing it I opened for captain chairs because it is stationary and the back does not move either. Makes the 3rd row loose it’s comfort and makes 3rd row almost unusable. And it’s very narrow. Definitely recommend seeing one with the bench before you order one! Otherwise I love this car!
The seats were done right no question about it, Lincoln makes superbly comfortable seats. The interior size is so generous but not overwhelming . Good point on rear end being outdated and not matching the rest of the car. The info center mounted on top of the dashboard is horrible and always a poor choice vs in dash mounted ones. None of this matters of course given it;s near 100K price tag.
Can you share why the vehicle was traded and what they traded into? I’m always curious about that from a buyer’s perspective (houses too). I want ALLL the tea (what did they hate about it?!) 😂
Did I miss your test drive? I just heard you mention that you didn’t love the drive but didn’t see a part of the video with an explanation why you didn’t like it
I test drove one of these today. Once I saw that only the driver door has an emergency door opening latch we walked away. You are the only reviewer to mention that door latch. If the power fails none of the other doors has a latch, so passengers are stuck inside. That's unacceptable.
You NEED to do the new Nissan Pathfinder when it comes out at the dealerships! Also the New Jeep Grand Cherokee L, since from what I believe, they are just landing on the lots now!
I hate that indent where the license plate sits on the rear hatch. If you have that rear hatch open in the rain, that indent will collect water and dump it on you when you go to close it. Also the rear seats are completely FLUSH (like a toilet not flesh). It’s an endearing mistake
4:00 beacause is electronic.. , electric stuff breakes so much easier and is expensive to repair, and in this case (opening doors) just for a stupid gimmic for kids to think is "cool" and "modern", just a false sense of "tecnology" and improvement, when actually is worse and doesn't add anything good over the normal doors
I was wondering about that too. I'm not super crazy about it but I'd be really interested to see what she thinks of it! Two friends with kids just got it but for some reason it doesn't struck me as family car🤷🏻♀️
I’m not a fan of all the touch buttons. I’m old school and really love the Expeditions interior. The shifter took time getting used too but I love the actual old school buttons
LOL, I think you mean "Completely Flush" , but I love your review, a slightly cynical review but honest. I will say for $51K this was kinda underwhelming, and not very spacious
I think you mean “completely flush” 😂😊 love the video! And your outfit!
" This is a size 5 diaper"😂😂😂(for reference)Too funny! Great video about the new Aviator. Thanks for creating it.

Team Flush! I need to see the Cadillac XT6! Trying to decide between these 2 vehicles. Also had the buttons for shift in my Pilot and loved it!
Go for the Cadillac! We just went through a lemon buyback with our 2019 Lincoln. The reliability was so poor. We drove a loaner car more than the vehicle we were spending $700/mo for!
@@thomascain8839 agreed. My Aviator is trash.

Completely FLUSH lol 😂 dead.
Haven't had a chance to drive the Aviator yet, looks great! I love the colour!

You can also use the voice command with apple car play and talk to siri which is super helpful for talk to text/searching for songs!
“It lays completely flat” or “lays completely flush with _______” 😂
Thank you!
This was a great review. Great because it was honest and you tried to stay objective at the same time highlighting the family need attributes. The car doesn’t live up to its look or price which is was makes this a great review.
Whoop whoop, she is back with another one! Thanks for doing this one. Great content as always.
Yupp! I think “flush” loooved the video though!
Flush (flesh lol) is in relation to something else. As in flush to the floor, as opposed to not being flush, not flat. Hope that explains it lol.
Have you been able to see the new Kia Carnival? Would love to see a tour of that!
Yay!!! I’m so glad you reviewed this! I want it so fleshly! 😜
Would love to see the Jaguar F Pace, Range Rover Velar or Mercedes Benz GLE! Those are the top three on my list! 😁
The short list for my next car is the Aviator or the X7, please do a tour of the X7!
X7 all day
Ocean Blue is absolutely gorgeous. I have seen in the wild and LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
Thank you for doing these! Would love to see you review a Yukon Denali!
Surprisingly, I'm liking the aviator more than the navigator
The uppababy vista fits!! You can also open the extra storage compartment and it fits even better. So excited you reviewed my mom car haha! 💕
You can say both. Yes it lays flat, but it is also “flesh” which means it fits into the space without lifting up.
Kelly, I won't call you crazy but you sure are entertaining and a accurate with your criticisms.
I have this car and originally I wanted the 2nd row bench like you selected BUT after seeing it I opened for captain chairs because it is stationary and the back does not move either. Makes the 3rd row loose it’s comfort and makes 3rd row almost unusable. And it’s very narrow. Definitely recommend seeing one with the bench before you order one! Otherwise I love this car!
Yep, get used to it. Shifters are a nostalgic carryover. Modern transmissions don't need shifters.
I'm with you on the light bar. I don't like them either.

Can you share why the vehicle was traded and what they traded into? I’m always curious about that from a buyer’s perspective (houses too). I want ALLL the tea (what did they hate about it?!) 😂
Can you review the Jeep Grand Cherokee L (with three rows when it comes out) and the Ford Explorer???
1959 Dodge had pushbutton trans. The seat padding is meager. Time will tell how long we keep ours.
TEAR THE FLESH
Looking behind you I can see out the back windows so that’s a plus
Would love to see the Yukon Denali!
Please do a tour of the Toyota Sequoia!!
Tahoe!
I'm in the market for a Lincoln corsair! planning on buying this June.
I bought a Corsair back in January. I absolutely love it!
Would love dodge durango tour!
I agree with you. The tail light is a total mess
Did I miss your test drive? I just heard you mention that you didn’t love the drive but didn’t see a part of the video with an explanation why you didn’t like it
She doesn;t do test drives
What SUV has the best cargo space with the 3rd row up?
I test drove one of these today. Once I saw that only the driver door has an emergency door opening latch we walked away. You are the only reviewer to mention that door latch. If the power fails none of the other doors has a latch, so passengers are stuck inside. That's unacceptable.
Will you do a review on the Land Rover Discovery?
Came here to say this same thing. Would also like to see one for the Land Rover Defender :)
I want to see the Velar 🤣
You NEED to do the new Nissan Pathfinder when it comes out at the dealerships! Also the New Jeep Grand Cherokee L, since from what I believe, they are just landing on the lots now!
Just bought a new 2021 4Runner. Guess I’m a cool mom now 😎 lol
I think she meant to say, "Completely flushed", which makes sense.
Hahah I think you meant completely FLUSH 😂 which means flat or doesn’t stick out
YES THANK YOU! exactly what i meant!
Flesh - hahaha. You are so funny. I have a Navigator and I LOVE it.
You should do a Honda Pilot next!
Kelly do you get to keep all these cars that you review love your review so practical for everyday user
Haha! The wind pushing the door closed. 😅 Another great tour. Thanks!
Can you do a review on the Yukon Denali?
Can you do a review of the Hyundai Palisade? Trying get my wife to choose the Aviator or the Palisade. Great video!
Same doubt here with my wife, which one did you get at the end? Thanks
@@Paulo-kc7ox We got her the Palisade Limited. She LOVES it!!!
That was nice!
I hate that indent where the license plate sits on the rear hatch.
If you have that rear hatch open in the rain, that indent will collect water and dump it on you when you go to close it.
Also the rear seats are completely FLUSH (like a toilet not flesh). It’s an endearing mistake
The voice command button will control: navigation, audio control, radio stations, climate control. It does it all.
It’s FLUSH Kelly 😂😂
Haha flush! Thanks for the video
How bout that audio!!! Yes ma’am!!!
Would love to see a grand Cherokee and grand Cherokee L together !
Hi there, Would the vista stroller fit with the lid open like you did in the palaside? I really like the outer look of this car 🙈
Lincoln Navigator next please!
you should buy this vehicle. it's fits your style
If you run in front of a car you'll get tired...
But if you run behind the car you'll get exhausted
hiii we are trying to get a new car and today is also my birthday and I was wondering if you could tour the jeep grand waganer
Flush
Thank you for your reviews! Please put a Ford Explorer on your list!! :)
Car Mom!!!
Great review! More space would be better! Super excited about the Navigator tour!
Can a car seat fit in the middle seat on a bench seat?
2021 Nissan Rogue Platinum

Team Flush.
Good Ole fashioned American luxury.
Flush! I knew what you meant
You crack me up!! Can you move to NOVA and be my best friend?!
Can you do the new Dodge Durango RT?
4:00 beacause is electronic.. , electric stuff breakes so much easier and is expensive to repair, and in this case (opening doors) just for a stupid gimmic for kids to think is "cool" and "modern", just a false sense of "tecnology" and improvement, when actually is worse and doesn't add anything good over the normal doors
👍
Flush !!!!
Please review the Volvo XC90!
coming on wednesday!!
Would you tour a Chevy traverse ?
I’m team Flush
Lays down flush. I knew what you meant
Soon to be dad here! Is Tesla model Y on your list of family cars to review?
I would LOVE to get my hands on a model Y but they are so hard to get ahold of! If I get the chance I absolutely will
I was wondering about that too. I'm not super crazy about it but I'd be really interested to see what she thinks of it! Two friends with kids just got it but for some reason it doesn't struck me as family car🤷🏻♀️
I’m not a fan of all the touch buttons. I’m old school and really love the Expeditions interior. The shifter took time getting used too but I love the actual old school buttons
Hahaha it’s flush! 😂😂
red bar makes it looks like a 2008
How come no Lexus SUV reviews?
flush is a thing!!
Do the new Jeep Grand Cherokee!
Buick enclave!
LOL, I think you mean "Completely Flush" , but I love your review, a slightly cynical review but honest. I will say for $51K this was kinda underwhelming, and not very spacious
LOL not flat not flesh but flush yes haha
