My wife just got her 2nd Aviator 2 months ago. Silver with Jet pkg & Air Ride. Excellent vehicle. Built in Chicago. Super happy with them. (Push button transmission not a big deal after few days, becomes 2nd nature)
@@Kush333 I’ve never struggled. A level in the console isn’t hooked to anything on new cars. It’s just a big electric switch to make you feel like you’re doing something.
I like how the instrument panel is now in tablet form. Looks cool. Nice refresh. And I believe a new Navigator is coming soon. And Lincoln sold over 3,000 Nautilus last month. Lincoln is projecting 100,000 sales this year.
I love my 2021. I actually am not a fan of the new one. Not saying it is bad but prefer the pre facelift. I also charge mine every night so I am averaging 45 MPG
Saw one the other day and from a distance I thought that’s a pretty Range Rover, got closer and it was a Lincoln, they do look sharp. Roman looks good in it, but that Carolina Blue G Wagon was definitely the perfect vehicle for Roman!
Just got a new 2023 Aviator Black Label for &10k under msrp. 2023’s sitting next to 2024’s and 2025 soon. They had to take my offer or let it sit longer. Still very expensive and now another $5k…😮
I agree with you on the push botton gearshift. Can we please go back to a real gearshifter like the GX? I'm so tire of the push button style!!! Also, physical buttons for most used items... raido, air, massage etc.
$5,155 markup from the year prior, or around 9% markup from the manufacturer. Clever way to protect their past year model sales from being marked down too fast.
If you were like me , what you got from this video was not a presentation, rather a mere discovery! Seems he was out of breath before things began! FYI, the 3.0 is not a Raptor engine.
Did they fix some of the engine issues in am experiencing with my 21 Aviator? Doesn’t matter much to me anymore-ordered my Grand Highlander Hybrid Limited a few weeks ago. I will miss some of the plushness, but I need reliability.
It's a beautiful design. The interior is especially impressive. Two issues for me though. The engine is shoehorned in there, so servicing costs down the line are probably going to be ridiculous, and Lincoln's parent brand, Ford, is the most recalled in the U.S.
I have a 2020 Lincoln Aviator. What the heck is the switch just in front of the center arm rest. It's not part of the front controls - it's the last switch on the console just before you lift the arm rest.
Are you referring to the round drive mode selector wheel? Or are you referring to the electronic parking brake lever? Those are the only two switches better in the area where you described. Also, how do you like your 2020 aviator? How many miles do you have on it? Any engine issues? Somebody mentioned their 21 was having engine issues.
As of June 28, 2024, there are 51,000 miles on my 2020 Aviator. Never had trouble with the engine or transmission. The only weird thing that occurred was the "blue screen" issue, which took Ford about 2-years to decide to resolve. The fix was simple - replacing the rear camera. I used to keep cars for 100,000 miles plus, but these days, I prefer to purchase a new car every 5-6 years. I have only one vehicle at this station in my life. I have had Ford Explorers since 1993, but upgraded to the Aviator in 2020. I am glad that I did. Now I'm trying to decide if upgrading to the Black Label model is worth the extra $$$. FYI - average mpg = 23, which I think is fantastic for a large, heavy vehicle.
@@drummer7006 okay thanks for your reply. I appreciate your information. I would say upgrading to the Black Label trim level depends on what kind of aviator trim level you currently have, and what packages are currently on it. The Black Label pretty much comes with everything and in my opinion looks better than anything out on the road. 2020 Black Label aviators are hard to find especially with decent mileage around 50,000 Mi or so give or take, and are at a decent price around 40K or so. Very hard to find. You would be better off finding a Reserve trim with the technology package which would add the Adaptive headlights, glowing Lincoln front logo badge, premium Sound system, and Motion sense seats.
Everyone here upset about the Raptor engine comment. This engine is in the Ranger and Bronco Raptors. It is in more Raptors than the 3.5, which is just in the F150 Raptor.
Wow! Way better than what Cadillac is offering for comfort! And they got rid of the grill that looked like the blades on an electric shaver! LOL Super nice!
Ya, weird move, it's proven at this point people dislike that, especially in colder climates when they are wearing gloves and to change anything you have to remove your gloves.
Seems like there is an abundance of cheap plastic surfaces on the interior; back of chairs and rear seat side areas.. I am such a fan but cannot with cheap materials.
I loved cars, and I liked the dash of some quite expensive cars, and one of them was Lincoln. Now everything is ruined by putting an unwatchable digital screen that is not fancy at all. A car that wants to appear luxurious cannot have in front of the driver, a digital screen that looks like a tablet. Push buttons transmission? No way! I don't like cars anymore, above all those nightmares called electric cars. I'm done. Thanks for the video.
Not really true that all small 3rd row vehicles don’t have storage behind the 3rd row. The new GMC Acadia seems to have a ton of room and it’s $20,000-$30,000+ cheaper for the fully loaded Denali then this Lincoln, and I would Argue the interior is just as nice if not nicer🤷♂️ The layout is definitely superior on the GMC, IMO
I assumed they only did fleet sales to taxi services. It'd be nice to see the towncar return and dominate the comfy cruiser category without being a massive SUV.
Lol, 5k more is worth it? You barely see any on the road. No one pays attention to Lincoln. They need to discount the crap out of these to drive interest in the brand. 5.6 second zero to 60 with 400hp and 415lbft of torque is actually slow. I was thinking they would have been fine with a smaller engine, but then it would be like the 7 or 8 second range.
The fact that they have you ticking off the Lincoln lineup tells us how bad of a marketing job they have done. And also exactly what you will do for somebody flying you out to Palm Springs
I understand the sentiment but everyone with more than a few hundred subscribers are doing this exact same thing because this is the only viable business model to do car reviews full time.
pile of garbage. zero residual value. nobody buys Lincoln’s because there are much better built, more reliable cars for your money. Tacky old person car. no way on earth would I spend my money on this pile of trash
What an absolute DONUT thing to say. Every luxury brands residual value is garbage. Name ONE luxury brand out there that has better fit, finish, and build quality in its price range I'll wait.. Hilarious how you saying you would never spend your money on that "trash" as if you'd even be in that type of market for those types of vehicles. Ford still need to improve some of the Lincoln line, especially the garbage Corsair, but compared to its competitors it is MILES better. I sell of them and I speak from experience everyday with all these brands versus you and your panties-in-a-wad emotions

Excellent vehicle. Built in Chicago. Super happy with them.
(Push button transmission not a big deal after few days, becomes 2nd nature)
I like what Lincoln has been doing. Now all they need is an advertisement boost to get people to showrooms. We still need a Town Car though.
The push button transmission frees up a lot of space in the console. I love it in Lincoln
How long has it taken you to get used to the push button transmission?
@@Kush333 I’ve never struggled. A level in the console isn’t hooked to anything on new cars. It’s just a big electric switch to make you feel like you’re doing something.
Lots now have push button transmission, get over it…like the first day I had one. Smarter than the average bear 🤪
I dont want a big stick for a transmission if its not a manual just give me buttons that dont take up space and allow for more flexible designs
That motor isn’t in the Raptor, that’s the 3.5L. The 3.0L is the same motor offered in the Explorer ST.
He meant Ranger Raptor
Bronco Raptor also.
This engine is in more Raptors than the 3.5. Kinda weird.
@@scottroberts3705, meh, the Explorer ST/Aviator had it before anything else.
@@The-fs5wn, because they keep that motor for larger vehicles versus the 3.0L.

Forgotten brand but super appealing
Very good exterior, not sure about the cockpit setup
Saw one the other day and from a distance I thought that’s a pretty Range Rover, got closer and it was a Lincoln, they do look sharp. Roman looks good in it, but that Carolina Blue G Wagon was definitely the perfect vehicle for Roman!
I have a”23” Aviator B-Label ! We love it even more than our “21”. The “Ride” is the best of all the luxury mid-SUV’s!
I love my 2016 MKX. 80K miles trouble free.
Aviator grand touring (PHEV) was killed by the latest tax credits having price caps. Had mine 2.5 years averaging 43mpg so far
Can you purchase an Aviator without the 3rd row seat? I prefer the extra storage and have NEVER used the 3rd row seat.
Just got a new 2023 Aviator Black Label for &10k under msrp. 2023’s sitting next to 2024’s and 2025 soon. They had to take my offer or let it sit longer. Still very expensive and now another $5k…😮

The ride is amazing. Magic carpet float.
What happen to the Tacoma?
I was wondering that too, Toyota probably sent Japanese mob hit men, you know they can’t be happy!
Died on the trail. They are trying to resuscitate it in the dealership.
$5,155 markup from the year prior, or around 9% markup from the manufacturer. Clever way to protect their past year model sales from being marked down too fast.
AWESOME VID AS ALWAYS ROMAN, GREAT JOB..THANK YOU
I can’t believe they still haven’t changed the tail lights have had 2 refresh headlights since new. Same dated tail lights.
They got rid of the 3.0 Hybrid??? The Grand Tourer?
If you were like me , what you got from this video was not a presentation, rather a mere discovery! Seems he was out of breath before things began! FYI, the 3.0 is not a Raptor engine.
Um... the Raptor has a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 not a 3.0L sir.
Did they fix some of the engine issues in am experiencing with my 21 Aviator?
Doesn’t matter much to me anymore-ordered my Grand Highlander Hybrid Limited a few weeks ago.
I will miss some of the plushness, but I need reliability.
What engine issues are you referring to? And at what mileage? And would you say this also happens on a 2020 model?
Hmm the one before this current Aviator had a hybrid
When is 2025 lincon coming in UAE ....waiting
It's a beautiful design. The interior is especially impressive. Two issues for me though. The engine is shoehorned in there, so servicing costs down the line are probably going to be ridiculous, and Lincoln's parent brand, Ford, is the most recalled in the U.S.
Does this have same engine as the Explorer ST?
my dealer just got the new aviators and nautilus already
Come on man that looks like my old BMW 🕵️🕵️🤷👀

I think you meant to say was how much did Lincoln raise the price.
Wow! Way better than what Cadillac is offering for comfort! And they got rid of the grill that looked like the blades on an electric shaver! LOL Super nice!
The price increase is more than I’ve ever paid for a car.
So, they removed intuitive, mechanical buttons for AC but made transmission buttons? Car industry is going downhill so fast…
It's because the rest of Ford has already done that. So they're trying to save money and not make more than one part of the need.
Lincoln has been using push button selectors for the transmission for over 10 years now.
Love it!!
How about having an SUV without a 3rd row seat. I don't have a family and don't need a 3rd row.
Am I supposed to believe that he doesn't know the rafter has a 3.5 L engine and not a 3 L?
A lot of misgivings about reliability and build quality. Probably more interested in the new Nautilus.
Moving the HVAC controls to a giant touchscreen is a fail. But I'm sure it appeals to the children who run Ford
Ya, weird move, it's proven at this point people dislike that, especially in colder climates when they are wearing gloves and to change anything you have to remove your gloves.
Did this guy just say 17 mpg combined?!?
$60-$90k for a rebadged Explorer is kinda wild tbh😊
That’s a B.S. statement
Seems like there is an abundance of cheap plastic surfaces on the interior; back of chairs and rear seat side areas.. I am such a fan but cannot with cheap materials.
Who needs hybrid?
Explorer doesn't have twin turbo it's not the same engine as explorer.
Are we really entertaining this car that has the highest market day supply of around 400 days?? Haha
I didn’t find Aviator model supply data but Lincoln on average has 140 days of supply NOT 400. Industry average is 70 days.
@@is6566 back in October 23 it was 400 day supply. But yes it’s around 140 now but that is high.
GREAT 😊 AUTOMOBILE!!!
We just got rid of of our Lincoln navigator it was very disappointing traded it for gmc
No sedan, no deal.

GM and superior don't belong in the same sentence haha. Its a polished turd
GMC is turd tho…. Like ultimate American crap car 😂
You have not test driven both cars. GM's XT6 even has way more plastic than the aviator. Ride quality is night and day different
If Ford killed Lincoln brand, would anyone miss it. Keep forgetting it still exists.
I assumed they only did fleet sales to taxi services. It'd be nice to see the towncar return and dominate the comfy cruiser category without being a massive SUV.
I ll miss towncar 😅
After they axed the sedans I stopped paying attention
My wife drives a Corsair and loves it! I drive a mkz 3.0t AWD and it’s great.
Why are you here? 😂😂😂😂
The designers keep making things worse
Push button transmission I'm out
Is this one made in China like the Nautilus?
No it’s made in the Chicago suburb.
It will be just wait a couple years
Chicago until 2028
It was a big disappointment. If u want to no if a car is good? Check the used car lots. Lots r full of them.
Lol, 5k more is worth it? You barely see any on the road. No one pays attention to Lincoln.

I understand the first part but what do you expect Roman to do on a manufacturer sponsored car event? Not to talk about the cars?
I expect him to do exactly what he did. Just remember when you consider these guys to be objective that they are not
I understand the sentiment but everyone with more than a few hundred subscribers are doing this exact same thing because this is the only viable business model to do car reviews full time.
Nope This Suv Has ammature Price price babge
those lights are horrible
No knobs no thanks.
Really nice but should of been an EV...
Ford is an embarrassment. The entire Lincoln brand consists of but 4 vehicles with this single model being the only one built in the USA.
