It seems like a bunch of automakers are now making these insane, V8, gas guzzling, cars because they probably know regulations soon won’t allow them to anymore.

@Ultimarium 2 жыл бұрын

Bingo, same issue with gasoline prices currently imo. This is their last chance before everything moves to electric and gasoline is going to be dirt cheap again due to low demand. Now is their chance to price gouge and they're definitely taking it.

@conman1395 2 жыл бұрын

Or they planned to make these during the years Trump was in office while gas prices were low. It's not a coincidence that gas guzzlers were popular in the early 2000s before gas prices got high between 2008-2010 and popular again when Trump was in office.

push the fold button 2 x for the 2nd row seats to fold all the way, 1 time to fold, once folded, the 2nd time for them to unhitch and flip to the front. You can do it the 2 different ways Doug demonstrated as well but I prefer the 2x button option

I really like how GM is trying to improve Cadillac’s image. Maybe Ford should try to sell high-performance / sportier Lincolns but really Lincoln is primarily focused on fancy. The Lincoln LS is pretty “close” to a sports sedan however. BTW great review Doug!!

@travisdahms5870 2 жыл бұрын

I mean if you look into it a bit the new Lincoln’s aren’t sport focused but they also aren’t slow vehicles. Actually before the Escalade-V the regular Navigator was a bit faster than the Escalade.

@brittonbernhard5674 2 жыл бұрын

Lincoln already threw the Raptor engine in the Navigator and the next generation will probably be electric so throwing the Vodoo engine from the GT500 and Raptor R just wouldn’t unfortunately make since given their imagine but it would make sense in the Expedition

Lincoln is focused on geriatrics. Ford has the SVT trim for many of their models. Don’t need a separate brand

@jakeh8366 2 жыл бұрын

I wish they would but Lincoln is purposely staying out of the performance brand. Not only with not having a dedicated performance line, but in general not building to that niche. So many luxury makers are all fighting over the sporty segment. Lincoln's brand pillar is "Quiet Flight". They aren't in this market and don't want to be.

Cadillac had considered making this over 15 years ago according to GM interviews with Car & Driver. I suppose GM wanted to squeeze as much profit out of their ICE vehicles as possible before the inevitable EV takeover within the next 5 years. I’m glad that this exists even if I would never own it.
