Expedition on steroids

Only complaint is the tech package and dash and the instruments are old looking like almost trying to be retro. The new version really didn't change anything except the controls and dash. Much nicer now. Not a deal killer as the car drives and rides great. It's comfortable and fits all the gear. Stereo is great, a/c and heated seats, all add to the likability. Only other caution I'd throw out is auto running boards. If you forget about them, you may walk in to them as they deploy and forget about them as they come out and bruise your shins.

We've had three navigators this was our second one... loved it best truck we ever had next to our current newest one, we have had large suv's like this for twenty years and never had a problem.

Headrests need to go back to the 2006 version.

Recently traded a 2006 Navigator for a 2010 model. The ride is very smooth and handling around corners is fine. As Edmunds has stated, sometimes the transmission can't seem to find the right gear. The biggest complaint is the driver's and front passenger's headrests are way too hard causing this driver a headache. The 2006 Navigator had just the right headrest as it was more adjustable being able to pivot forward as well as up and down and was more cushioned. The 2010 can only move up and down with hardly any cushion. It's hard to understand why auto manufacturers don't stick with a good thing once it's created.

5.4 is a money pit.

I bought a used 2010 navigator in 2020, the price was right at $12,500, the car had 90,000 miles on it. I LOVE this car, its luxury and practicality wrapped in one... And I wish I'd never bought it. 4 months into owning it the engine blew up, I now owe $10,000 on a car that I can trade in for $1,000 or dump $5,000 into for a new engine. I bought an engine from a junkyard and had it put in and the mechanic said quite flatly "sell this car ASAP because these engines are known for blowing up and you'll be doing this again in another 50,000 miles" super disappointed in my purchase, wish I would've kept my silverado.
