According to J.D. Power data, approximately 68 percent of Navigator owners are male, and the median age of a Navigator owner is 55 years old. A superlative utility vehicle in terms of styling, luxury, tech, and grunt, the gentle giant isn’t associated with the off-road community for obvious reasons. There are, however, exceptions like this fellow right here.
The first upgrade that captures one’s attention comes in the guise of aftermarket tires. 35-inch Toyo Open Country M/T rubber shoes wrap KM718 Summit wheels from KMC. The 17-inch alloys feature a six-spoke webbed design, simulated beadlocks with removable Torx head bolts, and they cost $195 per corner for the Summit Black finish at the time of writing.
A Baja Forged 1.5-inch tube front bumper, no chrome whatsoever, a ReadyLIFT suspension lift, coilover suspension, two pillar lights, and no fewer than seven auxiliary lights mounted on the Baja Forged roof rack complete this build. It’s an unconventional build, I won’t deny that, but the Lincoln Navigator before your eyes wears these modifications well.
Redesigned from the ground up in 2017 for the 2018 model year, the full-size SUV with the ladder frame of the Ford F-150 can hold its own off the beaten path thanks to a BorgWarner two-speed transfer case. Capable of seating up to eight people, the Navigator starts at $76,185 before freight.
For the 2021 model year, the Lincoln Motor Company offers three trim levels in the guise of the Standard, Reserve, and Black Label. All specifications, regardless of wheelbase length, feature the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with the high-output tune. You know, the engine from the F-150 Raptor.
Paired to the 10R automatic transmission, the six-cylinder lump makes do with a combined gas mileage rating of 17 miles to the gallon (13.8 liters per 100 km). But then again, what did you expect from a 450-horsepower engine and a curb weight of 5,870 pounds (2,663 kilograms), at the very least?
