• Interior lacks the rock solid build quality of equivalently priced luxury SUVs, engine noise intrusive at high rpm.

  Great All Around SUV - 2005 Lincoln Aviator
  By Chuck - October 10 - 6:00 am

  We could not be happier with our Aviator. We are the original owners and have had little trouble since our purchase. I wanted a luxury AWD SUV to last us 8-10 years. Well we are half way there and still love it. The fuel mileage is pitiful but we were aware of that at time of purchase. Thats what you get when you put a Mustang engine in a heavy SUV. Duh? The AWD and Traction Control are excellent. I feel that my wife is safe in a heavy, well built American SUV. The comfort and ride is totally "Lincoln." The THX sound system is fantastic too. I just put new tires and brakes on. Also updated the Navigation DVD and purchased the extended warranty through Ford. Were keeping it!

  A great car can be improved. - 2005 Lincoln Aviator
  By G. Plummer - May 1 - 10:50 pm

  Engine larger, and noiser, than necessary; RPM too high for moderate accelleration--a gas guzzler--Explorer better. Windows will not descend at 32-deg. or less. An A-trip & B-trip odometer would help. No gallons-used calculator. Info-center too obscure. Seats 1 1/2 inches too high(thick)--headbumps on entry. Rear seats dont fold flat. Manual puts too much emphasis on entertainment, rather than operating features up front. Manual not easy to use. Electrical schematic, simple, wouldhelp.

  This is the ultimate driving machine - 2005 Lincoln Aviator
  By Scott - March 5 - 1:50 pm

  You may have higher engine noise slightly but you expect that when all its competitors have v6 and youre driving a 300 horsepower v8 thats what you get with power. It is a true shame that this SUV is coming of the market it is a one of a kind SUV

  Who dont love my Aviator - 2005 Lincoln Aviator
  By justoma - February 27 - 12:26 pm

  I love love love my Aviator! Its the 2005, when I bought it in 2005 I knew the gas mileage was crap, but found the truck solid and full of power. I had the Grand Cherokee which was great too but the Aviator smoked it as far as performance. I have 75,000 miles on it. I do my oil changes every 3-4000 miles. I put tires on it in 2009 and I just put them on again..I never had them rotated and I failed on checking the pressure so they didnt get the wear they should of. I just got new ball joints as they were shot. That is all Ive had to put it in it. Its never been to the shop for anything but oil changes and the ball joint issue. Rear door panal cracked too.

  05 Aviator - 2005 Lincoln Aviator
  By jack - September 13 - 2:26 pm

  This truck has exceptional power and torque for an SUV. Its very comfortable, with ride, steering and handling that is much improved over the Explorer. It steering feel is light, and not truck-like, but more like the Jaguar X-Type we previously owned. The vehicle has a strong down-the-road presense, especially from front 3/4 views.

  Baby Nav, but better.... - 2005 Lincoln Aviator
  By J. Davis - July 7 - 11:43 am

  My wife LOVES this vehicle. I really like it as well. Power to spare, kicks down when you really need it. Almost as much seating room as our friends Navigator, but handles and drives much smaller than the Nav. We went shopping for a Mercury Mountaineer, but there is night-and- day difference between the Mercury and the Aviator, and not that much difference in the cost.

  Great to drive - 2005 Lincoln Aviator
  By Richard - May 18 - 5:36 am

  Fun to drive & dont take up my whole garage. Most of my driving is turnpike avg 17.5 mpg. Not bad for the Navigator look without the bite at the pump.

  New Owner - 2005 Lincoln Aviator
  By K Hanna - March 23 - 10:20 pm

  I am a recent new owner of a Lincoln Aviator. After owning 1 Explorer, 2 Broncos and 1 Windstar, I am, again, completely enjoying ownership of a Ford - Lincoln product. The Aviator is sporty and rich looking, both inside and out. It has all the "bells and whistles", most of which are standard features. The Aviator has a powerful V8 and is very smooth when stepping on the accelerator. It definitely stands out among other vehicles and I have received many comments and compliments on my recent purchase. I am most completely satisfied with this vehicle.

  My Dream Machine - 2005 Lincoln Aviator
  By Ruby - January 5 - 12:02 pm

  I bought mine used in 2015, it had been very well maintained a parking sensor had gone bad and is a pain to replace so I upgraded my radio with a touch screen with Sirius xm and Bluetooth, added a backup camera. However that made my rear dvd not work, soooooo Im getting an aftermarket one installed next week, but I dont care I LOVE this vehicle, and cant imagine why they stopped making it.
