The rise in popularity of SUVs in the American market created new markets. SUVs began to move away from off-road machines to family vehicles, taking over the segment once dominated by the station wagon.

Throughout Lincoln production, the goal was always to outsell Cadillac, and the Navigator became the first Lincoln product to succeed, despite attempts at fraud by Cadillac employees to artificially increase sales. In part, the sales success of the Navigator is tied to the record sales of Ford F-Series trucks, which share frame, engine and most other technology. As such, the Navigator is an incredibly durable and reliable truck that needs little in the way of maintenance.

Power is provided by Ford’s Triton-series 5.4 liter V8, an engine that is used extensively in Ford and Lincoln full size vehicles because of it’s robust power output,reliable service record and ease of parts availability. To differentiate the navigator from other Ford vehicles, Lincoln engineers revised many of the body panels, most notably the front end and grill area. Most Navigators are all-wheel drive, though a rear-wheel drive version was available.

Lincoln has produced four generations of the Navigator, updating various technology to stay current. The Navigator uses an air-ride suspension system that adapts to driving style and even lowers the truck an inch when stopped to ease entry and exit. The navigator is the pinnacle of Lincoln’s line, and as such, features are extensive. Aside from the Ford GT super car, the Lincoln Navigator is the most expensive vehicle produced by Ford, with a starting price of $95,000.

Owners of these luxury SUVs benefit from the parts sharing across the Ford line. Keeping a Navigator running strong and reliable is easy for the home mechanic using a Lincoln Navigator service manual that clearly illustrates the step-by-step procedures to remove, replace and rebuild the various components.
