Overview & Reviews
Into its second year, Lincoln's Navigator enters 1999 with more power, adjustable pedals, speed-sensitive stereo volume and a hands-free cellular phone. Also, the optional third-row seat is mounted on rollers this year for easy installation and removal.
- Powerful new engine and adjustable pedals for height-challenged drivers.
- Questionable styling and expensive compared to its corporate twin, the Expedition.

My Green Gator - 1999 Lincoln Navigator
By John T. Holt - July 6 - 2:00 amFuel economy response to outside air temperature change and road conditions is very pronounced. I have gotten as much as 20 mpg on flat road at 60 mph, 60 deg outside temperature. Increase in speed to 70 mph will decrease consumption by 2 mpg or more. City driving economy is as shown on sticker, 13 mpg under most condidions. Rear electric fold down seat in newer models was too long coming. Removing the rear bench can be a real pain, impossible for man or woman of even slightly less strength or stature, but no space for groceries or personal items with seat in place.

No Competition! - 1999 Lincoln Navigator
By smartlis - September 22 - 2:00 amI have owned my 1999 Navigator for over two years now and have had absolutely no problems with it. My kids enjoy the comfort of the seats and room for all their friends when we go out. Great vehicle for people who carpool and want comfort and safety.

Most Luxurious LEMON - My Love Hate SUV - 1999 Lincoln Navigator
By Ray R Harris - July 18 - 2:00 amThank God for Extended Warranties. Ive replaced: 2 Engines, a Transmission and a Rear End. Plus, lots of interior features have failed and been replaced. I love the SUVs perfomance and looks. I once had to navigate through 3 feet of flood waters and even though the water came over the hood and onto the windshield, this baby never stopped. My lease is up soon...and I just dont know what to do...I love it but Im sure glad I dont have to pay to fix it!

Depends on the day... - 1999 Lincoln Navigator
By CatMcM121 - July 3 - 4:06 pmMost days I really enjoy the navigator. Other days I want to kick myself for buying it. While I got it at a steal for 10G last year with 65k miles, I got it right when gas prices skyrocketed, my fault, as was not paying attention to the sound/alarm/entertainment systems (aftermarket and CHEAP). It drives beautifully, but what irks me is the odometer that appears/disapppears randomly, the "growling" noise it makes (something to do with suspension, happens when the car is off! talk about the strange looks I get...), back wiper dead, seat heater doesnt work. Other than these problems, its fine. Tough to drive in the city. Great for long trips if you can afford getting only 18 mpg highway
