Default 2018 Lincoln Navigator

Should Australia get the Lincoln brand after seeing this? I'm pretty impressed!
3.5 EcoBoost V6 / 10-speed with 335 kW / 680 Nm. (Not impressive compared to the Dodge Demon) 😂

I think it makes a good alternative to the Range Rover, Merc GLS, LX570 and QX80.

Good observation. In the Expedition (which this is based), it's a rotary dial on the console. But in the Navigator, it appears to be push button on the dash just below the air vents.

A lot of Euros don't have shifters now.
it would be a bit to adjust to
The one on the Jeep Grand Cherokee has no physical connection to the ZF 8 speed it has. but it still at least functions the same way

Wow .. 335kw v6. The yanks do love their knob gearshifts though. Drove the latest 300c 8 speed V6 and it featured a knob shifter.
