This car is more fun to drive than an SUV is supposed to be. The acceleration can be head snapping. The vehicle is very stable and handles very well. Fit and finish are excellent. My husband particularly likes the navigation system. All and All a very nice vehicle.

I have had nothing but good experience with my Aviator. For an SUV it handles like a sports car around curves, feels solid and planted to the road. Smooth on most road surfaces with little wind or engine noise. The interior design is one of the best for SUV's. Like all the safety features it provides like the rear park assist, the turn signal mirrors with reverse tilt, darn good brakes with ABS, electronic brake force distribution with brake assist.

2003 Aviator A/C stinks, - literally!

Chose an Aviator as an SUV that wasn't huge but had the power to haul our boat. Like the interior and the ride, but have been very disappointed with the number of problems we have had. Currently experiencing problems with the A/C which blows foul smelling humid air at us. Service rep says this is due to condensation sitting in the compressor creating mildew and is normal. Technicians repeatedly claim they can't detect a foul odor. Have recently met another 03 Aviator owner with the same beef. Wonder what kind of health hazard might be posed by mould or mildew in the air system. Anyone else with this problem? We are taking it to the regional level with the dealer. Will post our results

An honest review of the Aviator

When you first get in, you immediately notice the luxury and refinement of the cabin. The Aviator's cabin impressed me far more than any competitor's. The suspension and ride are excellent for an SUV, and the performance, while by no means insufficient, is the car's only weakness. I have had no issues of reliability, and Lincoln's service has been top notch.

I have enjoyed my Aviator. It has taken my family on many trips and I havn't had any problems. My only complaint is a rattling window that the dealership won't fix because it has been over a year. Overall though, it has been a great vehicle and I love the all wheel drive!
