Looks amazing, wonder if it'll sell. Seems the only luxury SUV made in the US that seems to move is the Escalade.

My local Ford/Lincoln dealer is already giving away the New Raptor powered Gator at 15k below MSRP.

What?! The Navigator is not selling?!?! Just one year ago, dealers could not keep in stock and my brother had to be on waiting list before he went with Raptor.

Love the new Aviator. On a side note, not sure what's happening in CO, but nationally the Navigator is selling well. 2018 sales totals are almost 50% higher compared to last year.

28 speakers wow! And to think that Dolby Atmos only has 11. I wonder what Lincoln knows that Dolby doesn't?

That the intended market for this thing is drug dealers and/or football players?

The speakers in the car are a lot smaller (due to lack of space) and has less dispersion. The car environment is harsher than a home theater. But yeah, it is trying to do surround sound AND height, like Atmos. Basically every high end car is now doing Atmos thing.

LOL, they’re selling terrible. There’s 3, at the dealer, down the street from me.


It looks pretty nice. I agree on the 28 speakers being pretty crazy. Maybe they’ve figured out how to do multiple zone listening. It seemed like there was a rear seat entertainment system.

You're confusing anecdote with evidence. Navigator sales are 50% up on last year.

Sales are up...but 50% quote is misleading because prior to this generation, Navigator sales were horrifically bad...being destroyed by Caddy.

So 50% improvement from bottom of the chart is improvement...but not as much as it sounds.

50% sounds like 50% because it's 50%. The only reason I posted it is because someone posted some fake news about the new Navigator selling slowly, which isn't true. The Navigator had been selling in extremely low numbers for years. The new model turned this trend around and in a big way for an upscale and very high profit vehicle.
