Today is Mike's Birthday! Drop a happy birthday in the comments below for that sweet RUclips Algorithm & for Mike too... *Note we missed the Wireless Charger, there is one.
H B-day Mike!!!! Also how are you? Also Beautiful car. My parents are trying to decide between getting a Range Rover. Or the Lincoln Aviator. Please help!!! We currently have a 2013. BMW 320i with 112,211 miles on it. And it has a lot of problems and we need a new car. But we don’t need a massive SUV. We’ve had our fair share of those. We are preferably looking for a used car because the last time my parents tried buying a brand new car they were both involved in accidents. And it’s really only me that’s gonna be getting rides from them to and from school. Since my brother has his own car already. We want something that’s big but not too big and something with legroom. That’s something our current car doesn’t have and we want Bluetooth well better Bluetooth than our current car at least. Our current car has Bluetooth. But it SUCKS. My dad is 6’2 to 6’3 and I’m 6’1 to 6’2 both of us are very tall neither one of us fit in our current car so maybe this would be a good upgrade? We may also get a second car in another year or so since both of my parents will be starting their new jobs in Albany New York. We currently live in Massachusetts. Thank you!
Great video! I'm actually 1 of those consumers who considered a BMW X5/X7, Audi Q8 and ended up getting the Lincoln Aviator. It has it flaws (like any other vehicle) but I'm extremely happy with my decision. After all, I won't go broke trying to maintain it for years in!
@@robinrhoden5450 No, I have not. I only have issues with the alerts of there being a powertrain malfunction BUT there’s nothing wrong at all. I feel this is an issue b/c if there is ever something really wrong then I wouldn’t know b/c the error isn’t reliable or trustworthy.
This car definitely is on the Mercedes and bmw level. You compared it to a BUICK? A ACURA? Those companies are premium at BEST. the Lincoln is a luxury car.
I was in the market and didn't start out looking at Lincolns. A BMW, Audi, Lexus, and Volvo we’re all options but I ended up driving one and there was no turning back! Love my Grand Touring and talk about pep!
LOVE MY 2023 LINCOLN AVIATOR! I did a lot (and I mean a lot) of research before ordering this luxury SUV. We are GM people and since 1999 have driven 2 Suburbans, 1 Yukon XL, and our latest...a 2015 Yukon XL Denali. I am a brand loyalist and did not really expect to move away from GM BUT on a trip to Boston a few years back the rental company gave us a Lincoln Nautilus and it was so much fun to drive. I saw the 2020 Aviator when it rolled out and thought it was striking. We don't get new vehicles often, and honestly with our active lives and 3 children (baseball, softball, and ALL the other activities) needed the full size SUV. On a trip to Colorado this past March I wanted to rent an Aviator but they did not have one available, so I asked for a Range Rover. I enjoyed driving the Range Rover and considered it for our next purchase, but I just kept coming back to the Aviator. Then my brother bought a BMW X5 and I drove it and enjoyed riding around with him in it.....but I kept coming back to the Aviator. I wanted to buy and experience American luxury! Finally, I test drove the only Aviator on the lot at Planet Lincoln in Spring, TX and I was blown away. The acceleration, the handling, the interior, the Revel stereo system....all of it was awesome and I was sold on it. I pre-ordered a 2023 before I left. That was May 26th and a mere 3 months later, my custom-built black 2023 Lincoln Aviator Black Label AWD, chalet interior with all the bells and whistles came! We picked it up Saturday, August 27th and had the best experience. The drive home (about 2 hours) was so much fun!! It handles so well and feels so responsive and comfortable, and the massaging seats felt sooooo good. LOVE the lighting, both interior and exterior and the way the Lincoln bows and greets with the "light show" you when you walk up to it! The lighted Lincoln badge in the front is such a nice touch and the adaptive lighting when you are turning curves was really bright! The 28 speaker Revel speaker system makes you feel like you are in the front row of a concert and the little demonstration that is available in the "Sound" app on the infotainment system blew us away! The kids keep commenting on the huge sunroof and how sporty the car is. They love the big console in the back and how they can control the music. Also neat how the second and third rows have their own separate AC/heating controls. My father-in-law even liked it, and he is a GM man only who said we would regret buying a Lincoln/Ford product. I am hopeful that all of the kinks from the initial release of the 2020 model have been worked out. I know the Navigator has been a dependable vehicle over the years and I would expect nothing less on the 4th year edition of the Aviator. I'm so happy that Lincoln has such a beautiful automobile in their lineup. We could have bought anything, including a Cadillac Escalade, but for us the Lincoln Aviator checked all the boxes!
Just got the same 2023 Black Label combination Friday. I went in and was honest what I thought a 2023 was worth today and it worked out. $10k under msrp on $82,225 so I thought they could get there. The discount did include the factory $1k rebate and %2.9 interest for 48 months. I know it’s a model year and a half old but I can live with the deal I struck up. A dealer in MD was $12k under msrp and one in GA was $11k under but too far. My local WI dealers laughed at my offer so the dealer in MN was where I had to drive.
The 2022 Lincoln Aviator does have wireless charging inside the console. There is a clip looking feature. That's it. The bigger issue I don't like is the lack of front passenger seat memory buttons. With all that adjustability they put in, the passenger is SOL if someone changes their prior time consuming configuration.
I don't understand why you only have 127K subscribers...you know your stuff the video transitions are super clean and there is no reason why you don't have more subscribers than Doug. He makes his videos 30-40 min long and you keep it short but informative. Definitely subscribing!! Keep up the amazing work!
Appreciate the love! Being in Canada, we don't get the new stuff as fast as the Americans do, so we may have to fly south to review cars in the future!
Hey there- Great job on the video! I purchased the Aviator Grand Touring Black Label (plug-in hybrid). I love it! Like a few people and yourself mentioned, there are a few flaws, but I'd say overall it's closer to an A++then an A, or lower. (Mid 9's out of 10, 95 to 100 out of 100, etc etc) I won't reiterate all of the positive aspects you thoroughly covered in the video, but I definitely concur with you on both the positive and negative features. The "kneel down" welcoming suspension is an underrated feature I feel. Also, with the plug-in hybrid there is an incredible jump in efficiency. Of course the range isn't very far when it's switched to full electric mode, but when it is switched to conserve (full hybrid mode) the MPG improves from what you would expect for a Mid size SUV, to the MPG of something similar to a small economy car. I could go on about every detail, but it is not necessary thanks to the video. The one minor thing to point out is that there's a wireless charging area in the front center counsel. Personally I think it could be in a better location, but it does exist. Any chance you can review the Lincoln Zephyr (only sold in Asia as of now). And if so, is there a Zephyr Black Label? Thanks and keep the videos coming!
Happy Birthday! Thank you for noticing the details and then commenting on them. At the Aviator's price point the small details can change a buying decision. Fantastic review!
Love my Burgundy 2011 MKX but do love the nice bluish color available in the Aviator. Since when did the Black Label become available in Canada? Guess enough folks asked for it? Another vehicle in the segment would be the Genesis GV8. Hard to update to another ICE vehicle however. Even more difficult when I an into my 80th year and only 109K KM on the MKX which is a car I love.
Sir, as a FORD owner, the way you get around those handles is with your key fob. An owner, like myself, most of the time, I unlock my car with my key fob. Then when I go to open my car, in the next second or two, the door unlatches and an opens simultaneously.
One thing nobody on any of these reviews ever talks about is what happens when they break ? Had a BMW X5 M50 I live in VA only 1 dealer in my area Eng wiring harness burned up took forever before that had a Mercedes GLE 450 it died with 3500 miles in N Michigan nearest dealer was 300 miles took a month. Ford/ Lincoln dealers everywhere
The wireless charger is located in the front center storage area towards the driver side, just slip the phone snd it charges. Btw with fuel prices now a days is excellent with standard driving mode went from north dade to the keys back and forth only spent 1/2 tank.. A+++for that
I drove the BMW X7 M and wanted the speed of that. After driving the Audi and thinking it was slow, i tried the Aviator out and winner winner!! Love my Aviator!
DP - I was looking at either the GLE, X5, Q8, Range, XC90, YukonDenali, and Navigator...ended up with an Aviator after going for a test drive in a Navigator (not old, mid 30's). Hindsight, the Denali, Range, and GLE would have better due to resale value in the current markets. Lincoln could improve on the sound damping, but compared to the GLE, X5 and Q8 the interior feels more spacious and seats are comfy. Cargo space is amazing as well. As someone mentioned already, I find it odd how the passenger seat doesn't have memory buttons. The cargo cover doesn't have mounts for when the 3rd row are folded. At high speeds, the built in spray/windshield wipers drip over the drivers window=residue. The console compartment doesn't offer additional charging ports requiring the passenger to utilize the rear seat console plugs. The "ambient" lights are a joke.
@@myleswilson7789 So far so good. Part of the reason I choose American was because of parts/flexibility with mechanics across NA for when I do drive long hauls.
If customers themselves sit in an Aviator vs BMW X5 vs Mercedes GLE vs Lexus RX, they'll know Aviator is much more premium materials, stronger engine, better speakers etc. Everything.
Still love the MKT! My mom has a 2012 MKT AWD ECOBOOST fully loaded except dvd players. Best road touring car ever!! Especially with the 2nd row cooler/freezer!!! 160k miles and still twin turbo boosting strong!!!
What are your thoughts regarding the current electrical issues any system shutdowns that owners are currently reporting on their 2022 Aviators. I’m hoping that these will improve for 2023. Also what about sync 4…. Should we hold out for this upgrade before purchasing?? Honest opinion please
they should give us the 3.5L (~500hp), bring in the updated 10 speed (800ft lbs rated) and the updated pancake EV motor (330 ft lbs, 210 hp) then put 305's on all 4 corners and integrate ZF's 15 degree rear wheel steer. Air suspension with road preview, black label interior. There's your Aviator RS. Basic leather interior, mechanical suspension, delete rear steer. There's your Explorer RS.
I know it's purely subjective but if this was a boxing match then pound for pound which the best between the 2022 Lincoln Aviator and the top of the range Range Rover ?
It would be great if you could throw a review of the Corsair Grand Touring (PHEV), really interested on hearing your thoughts on it since we are seriously considering but we're on the fence between that and an EV or the Sportage/Sorento PHEV
The aviator does have wireless charging. It’s located inside the center glove box. It’s located inside a little flap against the wall of the glove box interior
he didn't do his homework before reviewing apparently...not to be compared to a Buick Enclave. This Aviator goes up against Infiniti QX60 and Range Rover Sport. Test drive them WITH air suspension and the 28 Revel audio on Lincoln makes it a top pick for me. Already have one on order!
@@ReelEagleOne just got mine Monday. A black label which is insane!!!! I was reluctant and just traded in my rover supercharger and was feeling sad about it but DAMNNNNNNN this Lincoln is luxury, comfort and class like no other. The only thing that stood out to me is that the Lincoln doesn’t have the braking system that the RR has. I’ll just slow down a bit, lol. Which works fine while chillen with massaging seats. It’s a Gem!! Your gonna love it!! I’m shockingly beyond impressed. And Buick,,c’mon. Compare that with a Kia please.
Very well described, your reviews are next level 👊🏻. I really like the Aviator. I considered it , however, for the needs of my family we ordered a Telluride. I know they’re not in the same category but I think it couldn’t justify the price for a 4 year lease . And for some reason I really don t like the Explorer .
I was just about to pull the trigger on a 2022 Pre-Owned Aviator that was just traded in with only 2500 miles. The sales guy called me back and said they have to replace the engine, so they aren’t going to put it on the market for a few more weeks. I changed my mind and now I no longer want an Aviator. That sucks cause I really liked it. Now I don’t trust it.
Definitely the correct competition. My decision was aviator vs xt6. Felt aviator was quieter, more power went there. Wife actually liked her srx more than the xt6.
I am looking at the Aviator GT and X5 45e. I like the extra 10 miles of all electric range from the BMW but it should be more given the battery's 24 kWh size. But I prefer the Lincoln's interior. I am 50.
I own a 2020 Aviator Reserve and I will definitely be buying another one after I've got my use out of the one I currently have! Get the Aviator it is by far the best mid-large suv on market. I compared it to everything genesis gv80, BMW x5 and x7, volvo xc90 cadillac xt6, Mercedes gls. And I by far like the Aviator more than the others.
Today is Mike's Birthday! Drop a happy birthday in the comments below for that sweet RUclips Algorithm & for Mike too...

Sounds like you got a great deal! Still loving this car! @@vanceforrest4085
People buying a merc aren’t looking at an aviator but they should. The aviator is a step above the infinity and acura
A step above in terms of sporty or comfort? or both? just curious
I love my 2022 aviator. it's the definition of real luxury. quiet and smooth drive with zero highway noise. Very classy and neck turning!
I love my Aviator, mine is white, so the black accents look even more amazing with also black interior .. love my white!!

Maybe because he just compared a $90,000 Lincoln to a Buick? Sounds very bias and ignorant.
Seems like the production quality is getting great keep up the good work I’ve been a fan for a while now

agree black roof top on the black label would have pushed it passed 10/10. Looks solid though
You can wrap it with black or carbon fiber. I would wrap all the black to carbon fiber except the wheels

@@myleswilson7789 So far so good. Part of the reason I choose American was because of parts/flexibility with mechanics across NA for when I do drive long hauls.

Just wanted to point out that it has wireless charging. The location is inside the center console box, below the armrest.
Put some respect on the #LincolnAviator. 💯 wireless charging comes with the Aviator
I don't know what coffee you drink but I need a cup (just one...) every Monday morning to face the week.
I LOVE my 2022 Aviator Black Label!
This channel is underrated such quality content
I actually own a Q7 but I'm going to get an Aviator. As a 38 year old I actually like the Burgundy color though most of my vehicles are white .
This is such a great and in depth review!🎉 Thank you!
This is a sharp looking SUV. Not our grandparents Lincoln.

Yes etc the gle
I'm a 19 yearold wanting the Aviator in that red lmao

I was going to lease another GLE but the Aviator looks better and feels more luxurious.
Exactly
Hi ACCELER8 Can You make The 2022 Cadillac Escalade Sport Platinum Thank You You Are My Nice RUclips Happy Birthday Mike Vanhoudt For Tomorrow
You forgot Land Rover. In Texas quite a few people that have them have traded them in and prefer the Lincoln.
Our Reserve Trim does have the wireless charging. It's inside the center console and doesn't charge very fast, but you can get it.
Nice video! Loved the commentary and the flow, never a dull moment! Appreciate the in-depth look at it.
Much appreciated!
Thanks for the review... Regarding the wireless charging, check the Center arm rest storage, you should find it there...
Awesome video, hope the 2023 model has the bigger and updated infotainment scree running sync 4 also needs fords hands free active glide
I drive a nautilus and we are seriously considering moving up to the aviator in 2 years.
I have driven the aviator but do not own one myself and think it is a lovely vehicle.
Nice and exciting intro
The MkT replacement. A very nice American Town Car. 🇺🇸 Would've like to have seen the 500hp review. 👍
Still love the MKT! My mom has a 2012 MKT AWD ECOBOOST fully loaded except dvd players. Best road touring car ever!! Especially with the 2nd row cooler/freezer!!! 160k miles and still twin turbo boosting strong!!!

ML needs this as a business whip, show some love!
Great review. Can you do a review of the 2022 Ford Expedition please.
Yes hopefully soon! Thank you!
I like all Lincoln products!! I can buy it bro.
Umm are from America?? All Ford and Lincolns and especially mercury's cruise to 200k like its nothing. But this is GORGEOUUSSSSSS
In a Cadillac XT4 this week and I’m loving it but it doesn’t have the refinement that I need though…so close though! Lol
The Ford Explorer with the Lincoln Aviator appearance package.
Sometimes the more gadgets and tech a car has the more problems to fix down the road
Wireless charge is in the center console along the wall! Super weird spot for it.
What! Ahhh we missed it 😭
good channel my friend , big fan
A gas station in my area, removed the gas price sign cause is so expensive, it drives people away. 🤨
What is the best suv you have tested
your aviator does have wireless charging its right under your right elbow in the center glove box with a clip to hold it in.
yes we totally missed it, our bad.
There is wireless charging in the console storage compartment on the wall closest to driver. I have an Aviator.
This dude is really having trouble with these door handles 🤣 It's not that difficult at all
What are your thoughts regarding the current electrical issues any system shutdowns that owners are currently reporting on their 2022 Aviators.
I’m hoping that these will improve for 2023.
Also what about sync 4…. Should we hold out for this upgrade before purchasing??
Honest opinion please
Deals and inventory as Likely a factor in todays market.
Had this car in Dubai. Really loved it! Too bad they don't sell it Europa and don't have a full electric version
Super thanks 🙏🏻🌷
If the PHEV gets a big battery, it would be a consideration
they should give us the 3.5L (~500hp), bring in the updated 10 speed (800ft lbs rated) and the updated pancake EV motor (330 ft lbs, 210 hp)
then put 305's on all 4 corners and integrate ZF's 15 degree rear wheel steer.
Air suspension with road preview, black label interior. There's your Aviator RS.
Basic leather interior, mechanical suspension, delete rear steer. There's your Explorer RS.
This vs GV80 vs Velar 400 R-dynamic vs Cherokee summit Reserve?
It would be hard to choose between the Aviator and the Grand Cherokee L
@@rhydynamic8306 fuhkkk that is a hard decision, and those 4xe are coming.
They need to update the back/trunk styling and these cars will be real luxury then.
I know it's purely subjective but if this was a boxing match then pound for pound which the best between the 2022 Lincoln Aviator and the top of the range Range Rover ?
Wow there are actual buttons where shit isnt controlled all by the touchscreen..good job Lincoln.
It looks amazing
You know I forgot all about the Buicks. So it is smaller. But it does still look comfy. The size difference is definitely still a deflate though.
Great video!
This is what I've been waiting for!!!
Are you sure there's not a wireless charger in the center console? It's on the driver's side and looks like a big clip.
We missed it! Yes there is one!
8:18 it would be awesome if you would review the grand touring (the hybrid) for 2023.
There is wireless charging in the console, my 2021 Aviator has one, it came with the heads up option…
It would be great if you could throw a review of the Corsair Grand Touring (PHEV), really interested on hearing your thoughts on it since we are seriously considering but we're on the fence between that and an EV or the Sportage/Sorento PHEV
It does have wireless charging in the center console
The aviator does have wireless charging. It’s located inside the center glove box. It’s located inside a little flap against the wall of the glove box interior
he didn't do his homework before reviewing apparently...not to be compared to a Buick Enclave. This Aviator goes up against Infiniti QX60 and Range Rover Sport. Test drive them WITH air suspension and the 28 Revel audio on Lincoln makes it a top pick for me. Already have one on order!
@@ReelEagleOne just got mine Monday. A black label which is insane!!!! I was reluctant and just traded in my rover supercharger and was feeling sad about it but DAMNNNNNNN this Lincoln is luxury, comfort and class like no other. The only thing that stood out to me is that the Lincoln doesn’t have the braking system that the RR has. I’ll just slow down a bit, lol. Which works fine while chillen with massaging seats. It’s a Gem!! Your gonna love it!! I’m shockingly beyond impressed. And Buick,,c’mon. Compare that with a Kia please.
Very well described, your reviews are next level 👊🏻. I really like the Aviator. I considered it , however, for the needs of my family we ordered a Telluride. I know they’re not in the same category but I think it couldn’t justify the price for a 4 year lease . And for some reason I really don t like the Explorer .
Dude what is wrong with old and traditional the car functions perfectly and it is very luxurious what's with it man .
Great video. Would be good to have the unit conversions on screen (miles to km, gallon to litre etc)
It has wireless charging in central console box
Of course it flies, Lincoln's come standard with jet turbine and fold out wings
I was just about to pull the trigger on a 2022 Pre-Owned Aviator that was just traded in with only 2500 miles. The sales guy called me back and said they have to replace the engine, so they aren’t going to put it on the market for a few more weeks. I changed my mind and now I no longer want an Aviator. That sucks cause I really liked it. Now I don’t trust it.
Did mention the park itslef function
Check inside the center console for the wireless charger feature?
Yeah we totally missed it, made a pinned comment about it.
I always hear people say this is a great luxury car. But on the same price range, why they are many more x5, q7, mdx on the road than aviator?
You do some test runs on Bostwick Rd?
Nice video, but you are completely wrong: I have a 2020 BMW X7, and I AM looking at an Aviator to replace it.
Idk how u can not mention Cadillac XT6
That’s your real compition.
I just got me one and yeah it was a tough choice but I am happy with the XT6
Definitely the correct competition. My decision was aviator vs xt6. Felt aviator was quieter, more power went there. Wife actually liked her srx more than the xt6.
Did you mention prices????
I am looking at the Aviator GT and X5 45e. I like the extra 10 miles of all electric range from the BMW but it should be more given the battery's 24 kWh size. But I prefer the Lincoln's interior. I am 50.
Lol at the aviator, get the X5. That's a no brainer.
I own a 2020 Aviator Reserve and I will definitely be buying another one after I've got my use out of the one I currently have! Get the Aviator it is by far the best mid-large suv on market. I compared it to everything genesis gv80, BMW x5 and x7, volvo xc90 cadillac xt6, Mercedes gls. And I by far like the Aviator more than the others.
@@BigBossBallSoHard nope x5 is trash my uncle has that vehicle its always in the service shop
@@BigBossBallSoHard
If you are into overrated European cars go for an X5 but do not expect it to be better than a Aviator or an Explorer.
#Lincoln over Cadillac
No love for Toyota and Lexus? Don't see any reviews on those. lol Happy Birthday Mike.
We've been trying to get our hands on some Toyota Press Cars, hopefully soon!
