2007 Lincoln Navigator Ultimate 4dr SUV 4WD (5.4L 8cyl 6A)

Review

Purchased our 2007 Lincoln Navigator 14 months ago. Test drove every large SUV, but Navigator blows all others away. Runs on regular gas. V8 is smooth and powerful yet the ride is amazingly smooth and quiet, you will not believe its really a truck! Massive interior space that is luxurious and comfortable. Power 3rd row folding seat is a very convenient feature which we use whenever we make runs to Lowes, Home Depot, etc. Power fold running boards have worked without any problems even through tough NJ winter. Able to handle rain, snow, and ice with confidence. Currently have over 22000 miles with impeccable dependability. Impressive vehicle that frequently receives compliments

Favorite Features

4x4 drive is independently controlled. Power fold 3rd row seats is great. THX stereo is amazing. Ride is incredibly quite. Nav system, 40/20/40 split 2nd row seats, heated and cooled front seats, climate control system, power fold running boards. Ride, engine and build quality are all excellent.

Suggested Improvements

Could use a rear camera. Lincoln got this right by adding it to the 2008 model. Otherwise, no complaints. We are very happy with this really great luxury SUV. Ford has truly built a high quality SUV in the Lincoln Navigator. We highly recommend for active or large families.

Review

I love this truck it has a lot of power. Traded in my Safari for this huge difference. It’s the ultimate SUV. It has power towing and room and comfort. I get about 13.8 in the city and 19.4 on the highway. Better then my Safari which got 12.5mpg and had a Durango Hemi that gave 7.2mpg that was insane. The interior feels like a luxury sedan. Drives like a car. Lots of legroom in the third row. I'm 6'-2" and I just sit fine. My family loves this SUV.

Favorite Features

Navigation, THX audio system. 20 inch wheels. Lots of chrome. The interior is amazing, very well finished. Leather is very rich. My SUV is the french silk colour, amazing colour get comments about the colour, and lots of comments about the SUV itself

Suggested Improvements

Back up camera. Power rear doors.

Review

After owning the car for 9 months, I have few suggestions for improvement: The A/C cooled seats don't have enough cooling power on hot days. You can't even tell if they are operating if it is above 90 outside. The center console is very very busy. It is very difficult to find controls while driving for specific actions because there are so many buttons, I am 6'-3" tall and for me the vehicle has a very bad blind spot. I have almost moved over on other vehicles several times. Back up sensors are nice, but a backup camera option would have been nice.

Favorite Features

Nice looking car, comfortable seats, power step rails,

Suggested Improvements

Less clutter on center console, more cooling on seats, redesigned side for better view around car, back up camera, management training for service centers, Sensor in power rear door to prevent the door from hitting small children

Major upgrade from previous Navigator's

2007 Lincoln Navigator Luxury 4dr SUV 4WD (5.4L 8cyl 6A)

Review

When the lease on our 2002 Navigator was up, we decided to get a 2007 since the '02 had been such a reliable vehicle. Now that we have put 10,000 miles on the 2007, I can definitely say that Lincoln has moved the vehicle more upscale in terms of refinement and interior appointments. The THX audio system is unbelievable and the heated/cooled seats have come in very handy. Overall, the vehicle handles much better than the 2002 with less roll. So far, the vehicle has had no problems and is a joy to drive.

Favorite Features

THX stereo, heated/cooled seats, satellite radio, touchscreen entertainment system

Suggested Improvements

Move audio controls to left side of steering wheel (I frequently drive with a cup of coffee in my right hand), daytime running lights, wood on top/bottom of steering wheel (like on 2002), move seat memory to door panel, better front end grille (like Escalade)

2007 Lincoln Navigator Ultimate 4dr SUV 4WD (5.4L 8cyl 6A)

Review

This is a great truck. Easy to drive taking into consideration its size. I don't think I could ever go back to a car

Favorite Features

Cargo room, power running boards

Suggested Improvements

Instrument panel is the only thing I don't like in terms of styling. Transmission is also not always as smooth as it should be. Fuel economy is horrible

Almost Perfect

2007 Lincoln Navigator Ultimate 4dr SUV (5.4L 8cyl 6A)

Review

Very comfortable and quiet ride. The roomiest cabin ever. Love folding seats and running boards. Excellent navigation system and very good sound system. I own BMW 750i and I have to admit - Navigator is indeed roomy and comfortable. Towing is effortless, but I'm really dissappointed with lack or the rear view camera on 2007 model. Fuel economy is not bad at all - 14 city and 20.6 freeway. I've never managed to achieve this on my Jeep with Hemi engine.

Favorite Features

Front seats, fording running boards and back seats, navigation system, ride and comfort

Suggested Improvements

Rear view camera and bluetooth are a must. Keyless entry, rain sensor, auto high beam, cargo hooks and net ... I can live without those, but a luxury barge has to have all above mentioned.

Nav L extended

2007 Lincoln Navigator Ultimate 4dr SUV 4WD (5.4L 8cyl 6A)

Review

Thourghly enjoy comfort & quiet ride. Additional length is a life saver as we travel a lot and wife likes at least four suitcases. Traveling for the gospel across the country is convenient, fun and comfortable. Have put over 12K miles since mid Jan, and expect another 10K by year end. Same engine as previous Nav, but better gas mileage using regular gas. Am getting 18.5 on hwy, 14.8 in town...I can deal with that. Absolutely love it!!!

Favorite Features

Excellent Nav system, satellite radio, etc. Foldaway running boards, fold down seats third row, nice head room for adults vs competition. Extra storage space definitely a plus!

Suggested Improvements

More interior storage pockets in front. Web storage would fit nicely on either side of console as on previous 99 Nav.

Best of the Lux SUVs

2007 Lincoln Navigator Ultimate 4dr SUV 4WD (5.4L 8cyl 6A)

Review

I tested them all, and being a minivan guy, all the new SUVs had shortcomings. The Navigator had the most pluses with the least minuses. I wanted smooth, quiet, luxury, and functionality, and I believe I got it! This is my first SUV, my biggest hurdle was getting over the fact that while these vehicles are much larger than my Sienna minivan, they all have much less interior space, storage and functionality. That said, the family wanted to change and we are very happy with the purchase.

Favorite Features

Folding third row seats, air-conditioned seats, smooth and quiet, automatic running boards, styling.

Suggested Improvements

120 V outlets, rollup sunshades, grocery hooks in the back, removable second row seat center console, real- time traffic integration with navigation system. More interior storage compartments. he funny thing is, these improvements need to be available in all the vehicles of this class.

Review

I love everything about the Navigator so far .The navigation system is easy to use and understandable, so is the rear seat DVD. The ride quality and quietness is exceptional even with this 20'' wheels. The quality of the materials and the luxury it offers swallows you into this incredible vehicle. The power step assist are great, nice touch and just about everything this car has to offer was well though out, planned, and executed to produce the 2007 Lincoln Navigator, an amazing full size SUV.

Review

Just bought this car new and we absolutely love it. It has every single option that is available and it is a well designed vehicle. The interior cannot be beat. Compared to the Escalade and the Infiniti QX56 the interior if far superior. Good performance and adequate gas mileage for a vehicle this big. Everyone takes a second look at you when you're driving this thing. We got the white chocolate paint and its beautiful. Excellent car and I would reccomend it to anyone.

Favorite Features

Best thing is the interior. The THX 14 speaker sound system with navigation is really amazing. Can't get a whole lot better.

Suggested Improvements

Nothing really. There a bit of a blind spot but other than that this car is ideal.
