  Lincoln is better than Edmunds says - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By MoXXy - November 1 - 1:56 pm

  I test drove the Escalade (Reg& XL) The Lincoln had more room and more luxury than the Caddys.In the XL there are 3 tiny steps in the very back that make you feel like your eating your knees.The Reg.Escalade was smaller than the other two.While the Caddy has a teeny bit more power,the Lincoln can Scat as well.I bought the Lincoln Navigator.I also Drove the Pathfinder Armada and if the body style on the outside were different I would have picked that one over both.It had Everything the Lincoln had and alot more power than the Caddy!That thing was amazing but the body style was not my style.Its too bad because it would have been cheaper by about 12,000.00 bucks.

  Super SUV - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By K Foster - April 27 - 2:20 pm

  This is my second Navigator. I currently own two Mustangs as well. I have driven many suvs and luxury cars. This Navigator is by far the nicest vehicle I have ever riden in or driven. The comfort of the seats have no equal. I do wish it had a touch more low end torque to move out a little better without mashing the gas so much. It is thirsty and has a much larger blind spot than my 99 Nav did. Biggest problem with buying a Navigator is the price and the fact that if you get one, that is all you will ever be satisfied with. It is that far ahead. I have the black interior with silver exterior. Others considered were the Lexus and Expedition and lastly Escalade.

  Awesome Truck - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By Melissa - January 26 - 10:00 am

  My navigator is almost 6 years old with 125K miles. Only major repairs so far alternator (Jan 2008) and had to replace rotors twice. Tires lasted 100k+ miles. Truck still rides like new. This is my second Navigator and I would not trade it for anything.

  WOW!!!! - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By Michael Johnson - February 23 - 11:03 am

  I had never considered a Nav, Im 63" - the Escalade was a huge disappointment - dash and emergency brake cut into my shin and leg! Happened upon the Nav by chance. Was very taken with comfort, pick-up and ease of handling! I was surprised by the comments about lacking power, as the "Baby" moves like a bat out of hell and thinks 90 is an appropriate cruising speed. Among the most comfortable and supportive seats I have ever had in a car. I will agree that the gas mileage was a kick in the head -- but considering its size and weight it could be alot worse. All in all -- an A+ on the car -- which does not extend to the dealership --yuck!

  Lincoln Gator - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By PJ - October 3 - 6:43 pm

  I have owned 2 Jeep Grand Cherokees and a Ford Expedition. The Nav drives better than any other. It should, the gas mileage overall is a bit disappointing 13mpg. The comfort factor and quite ride standout. It does not handle like most SUVs I enjoy the sound system.

  Just gets better - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By nvbanker - August 4 - 9:46 pm

  The 05 has a new engine and transmission that make the truck even better, more responsive, and useful. The 6 speed transmission shifts like butter, and gives the truck some real spunk off the line. I dont think any other truck in this class can touch it.

  Looking to buy my third - 2005 Lincoln Navigator
  By bernermom5 - June 6 - 11:19 pm

  I ordered my first Nav sight unseen, 1999...first year of production.. My only disappointment was the second row did not fold flat. Loved the color, cashmere. PERFECT color...never looked dirty. Next 1 folded flat, was a 2005. Had to settle for a lighter color, French Silk...FABULOUS Navigation system...the first was great and the second even better. Intuitive. Not enough cupholders upfront, really wonderful ride. We have 128,000 miles on it as we drive back & forth from South Carolina to NY and its always a pleasure. It doesnt get more comfortable. Also love the 6 CD player. New models only have single. Whats up with that??? Now in the midst of negotiating my 3rd. LOVE IT! (obviously):)
