Ford pulled out all the stops and has blown the competition including theÂ* Cadillac Escalade and Infiniti QX80Â* away with this one. 3.5L twin turbo, 450hp, over 500 lb ft of torque, 10 speed transmission, Â* Â*6 adaptive performance settings, premier seating for all and an interior fit and finish that is superior to any of it's competition. Quite a price tag though.Â* Starts at $76K.Â* $96K typical. Mrs.E. loves Navigators.Â* She has had three of them in the past. Gotta keep her away from this one. Heheh...what does that barge weigh, three tons?, and with a 3.5 liter engine, the same size as in my little truck and a Toyota with V6? With twin turbos? Not an engine that is going to last long, pushing an aircraft carrier. Oh, look... it's the jingle writer that thinks he's a mechanical engineer. There's a bit of a difference between Harry's Tacoma 3.5L V6 and the Navigator's 3.5L V6.Â* The most important is torque.Â* Harry has about 260 lb ft.Â* The Navigator has over 500.Â* That's as much and in some cases *more* torque than many of the six cylinder diesels used in some pickups. Coming out of a small displacement engine for a vehicle that weighs three tons. I'm surprised Lincoln didn't go with four turbos. |
