A very large SUV, a big V-8 engine requiring premium fuel, and a gasoline price spike in the days immediately following Hurricane Katrina: not a happy combination. To heck with the navigation system; this thing should come with an ATM.

Mark Bilek

I can't imagine anyone using this vehicle to commute or schlep the kids to and from school. Still, Navigator is hard to top when it comes to highway cruising or light-duty towing. I'd still probably go with an Expedition for $10,000 less, but some may prefer the added luxury of the Lincoln.
