  The Big Dog - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By Esrom Shaw - August 14 - 2:06 pm

  I was a former BMW driver and thought that I would never find a replacement that would seperate me from the road. My Nav is awsome, the ride the comfort level is great.

  "Navie" gator - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By embeth - November 15 - 12:30 pm

  I bought a fully loaded ultimate 4x4 navigtor in june 2005. I had both a 1998 and 2004 eddie bauer expedition prior to this purchase. The navigators transmission shifting is awesome & smooth. I have 3600 miles on it so far. The engine is not quiet though when it is in park........Its embarrassing to drive up in this luxury suv and the engine can be heard. I am getting that checked asap. Besides, everyone gawking at my gator, or peeking inside the windows when they think im not looking.............This suv is close to perfect!

  Navigator #2 - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By bk183 - August 21 - 3:56 pm

  I like the look of the Escalade a little better but after test driving 3 different then the 05 Navigator there was no comparison. The Navigator out handled, was quieter, smoother ride, and just easier to drive. Big improvement over my 01 which was no slouch. I have to say, so far this is the best vehicle I have ever owned.

  I LIKE MY NAVIGATOR. ONE COMPLAINT.IT DOESNT ABSORB THE SHOCK OF MAJOR ROAD IMPERFECTIONS AS WELL AS THE LEXUS470 DOES.

  The main feature I appreciate is the advancetrac. Ive made several trips from WA to MT in the winter and it has kept me on the road upright when other 4WD vehicles were in the ditches. It definitely goes in ice & snow. The ABS system is great and Ive never had a problem with control when I had to swerve to miss other drivers or animals that wanted in my lane.

  What a Deal - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By Geo A - November 7 - 2:03 pm

  My deal was zero percent financing, 9 grand off the sticker and its off the lot. Its turn radius is the best, the 18 inch tires eat bumps, and with all gadgets included it beats the Escalade. Mileage stinks: it averages 13 mpg

  Solid. - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By t328 - December 15 - 4:31 pm

  This was my first car, and overall, its been outstanding. The timeless exterior and interior design are, in my opinion, more attractive than the latest generation. I havent had trouble with rattles or squeaks, and all of the trim pieces have been extremely durable. Its been very reliable, just a couple of minor fixes here and there. The driving dynamics are reminiscent of a much smaller car, and the acceleration is impressive. The air ride suspension makes Texas dirt roads feel like the Nurburgring. Naturally, fuel economy is a pain; I usually get around 14 mixed. However, I drive pretty assertively and use regular gas. Overall, fantastic vehicle, I just wish I could afford the gas.

  2005 Navi Ultimate - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By njbaran99 - April 14 - 9:10 pm

  have the Navi for 1 week now and lovethe SUV, so far. Strongly considered QX56/Armada but had concern on the brakes Issues. Also looked at Escalade, but felt too much like a suburban and Durango was just too small. Navi(s) are a highway cruiser if there ever was one. This beast weighs 6,000# which is heavy, but complements the ride and adds to firmness on the road. A little concerned about expected reliability, as some have reported major electrical issues, hope they got all this figured out by the 2005 Model. I got the Navi just under invoice with all available incentives, so it was a bit pricey, compared to some alternatives, but plan to keep it long enough to enjoy as it depreciates.

  MPG - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By edgar - July 23 - 7:33 pm

  My 2005 Lincoln navigator mpg Gauge is going down. When I bought it was reading 13.2 then 12.9 now is reading 12.8. I would like to hear from some one if this is normal or something is wrong.

  Navigator - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By reltd - July 15 - 2:03 am

  Looked at Eddie Bauer, Expedition, Navigator, and Escalade. Liked the price of Expedition, but the luxury of the two other vehicles. Did not like the fact that the back seat did not lie flat in the Escalade. Was able to get a great deal on Navigator (less then wholesale). Purchased. If I had to do it again, I might not. I might go with the Expedition or Escalade. Im a little disappointed with Navigator. Interior trim work is not quality for the money. The gas mileage is low, not a surprise 13/17, but the need for premium gas was. The air-suspension ride is smooth, but not sure if it outweighs other drawbacks.
