Lincoln Aviator killed it.
holy sexy. RWD. This is how it's done.
Nice proportions. pimp mobile.
Full LCD gauge cluster... keeping up with the joneses.
poorman's range rover.
This could be the next platform for the Ford Explorer. Glad to see mfgrs bringing back rear drive platforms to the affordable class, not ugly FWD

Looks good. Also nice to see the next Explorer will use this platform, moving back to a RWD layout.

Lincoln is on a roll with the Navigator, Aviator and Nautilus (which looks good too). I wonder if there's time to do a reboot on the Continental using some of this interior and exterior styling language?

Ok, let's hold on here. We should see how these new SUV's sell before we determine that the Continental needs to be refreshed which really is the subject of another thread is it not?

looks awesome. if lincoln could do it for that, why couldn't they do the continental right? perhaps because they felt they'd never get their money back with the shift from sedans to utes?

It’s based on a new, unibody rear-drive architecture that will also underpin the next Ford Explorer, a reversal of the current, front-drive-based Explorer and MKT. Lincoln officials say that the decision was primarily driven by Lincoln’s desires for the proper long dash-to-axle design proportions, but according to chief engineer John Davis, it also delivers a nearly 50/50 weight distribution and will be a boon to towing capacity.

If they made the navigator a bigger version of the Aviator, it would look tons better.
I don't like the bling chintzy look of the materials, but the layout of the center stack is good, unlike other brands.
Lots of practical space to use, with the gear selector 'hidden' away with the a/c controls.
Storage in the center stack for more important stuff. Also storage behind the center stack.
