It was only used in F150, Ranger and Bronco after they ditched the transverse version, and 2.3/3.0 makes more sense e ranger and bronco.

yes

Aviator was the flagship. They went all in on it at first but pulled back a little lately.

Take off the emblem and you'd think it was a chevy

I don't think NHTSA works that way. They made a conscious decision to go back and find past problems and fix them now rather than have them continue to pop up a few at a time for the next several years. Rip off the bandaid and get it over with. If done right and assuming they aren't creating a lot of new problems it will pay off soon.

Or Mary Kay

Looks great but I know several folks who own an Audi suv and don't like it.

A bit cheeky to claim #1 in quality based on IQS only. But headed in the right direction.

Only affects an UNOCCUPIED driver's seat? And that warrants a recall? This is ridiculous.

Another reason to add SD to Oakville and potentially a hindrance to increasing Navigator production.

It certainly removes that obstacle from the business case. But given the new dash what exactly is it lacking in the tech department?

Damn, Joe. We've shown you how to do it at least 3 times. When you open the link in your browser go up to the URL bar at the top and hit ctrl-c to copy then ctrl-v to paste it here or use the mouse controls.

Sounds like it cracked and was repaired.

I guarantee loaded super duties are more profitable. As for the engine who gives a shit if expy gets it. It has 450 hp and 510 lb/ft - more than the regular escalade. Ride quality is the only significant shortfall. And you don't spend money improving something that won't give you ROI when there are bigger fish to fry.

The only real shortcoming I see is ride quality. Very few care that the side sheetmetal is the same as expy - the front and rear make it unique enough. It's definitely not underpowered and the interior is very fresh and modern. More investment can easily change the side sheetmetal and ride quality. And they can easily add more engine choices. But you guys keep forgetting that the factory is close to maxed out so in order to sell more Navigators they have to sell less super duties or expys right now. When oakville is up and running that will change the equation and make the added investment easier to justify. In short none of the Navigator's shortcomings are because it shares a platform with F150 and Expy. It's a business decision.

Had it 8 years and I think I've only had people in the back seat 2 or 3 times. Which is why I got the supercab.

They have one full size body on frame rwd/4wd, one unibody rwd and two unibody fwd hybrids. That's 3 different platforms and 3 of the 4 have 100% unique tophats and interiors. That's not "reskinned fords". What else should they be doing?

The simpler explanation is they don't have the capacity (yet) to expand sales much so they chose not to spend the money on it. That might change once Oakville is at full speed.

It was never built in the US

I still have 4 cupholders. There are 2 on the rear of the console.

I still prefer the console shifter. It holds the mode and gear selector buttons and there is plenty of room for cupholders.

And you're still overestimating the number of people willing to buy a luxury EV. Cadillac only sells 15k Lyriqs annually.

Everything looks pretty good except that grille. They just can"t make a good looking grille to save their life_

Except that doesn't equate to "moving Nautilus production to the US". And there's no way to replace Nautilus volume with an EV. I think they'll bring back Nautilus and Corsair as hybrids only.
