2000 Lincoln Navigator

For 2000, the Lincoln Navigator features a new satellite navigation system, a reverse sensing system, and climate-controlled front seats with a small fan and heat pump to circulate air. Lincoln Navigator is available with two-wheel drive ($42,460) or four-wheel drive ($46,210). A 5.4-liter four-valve twin-cam V8 engine rated at 300 horsepower powers the 2K Navigator. It comes standard with a four-speed electronically controlled automatic overdrive transmission.

The 4x4 Navigator comes with an advanced four-wheel-drive system that offers a low-range set of gears, as well as Ford's Control Trac system. Front side airbags were installed this year as standard equipment. So did Ford's Reverse Sensing System, which used rear-bumper sensors to provide an audible warning as the vehicle approached an obstacle while backing up. Door mirrors were revised, with built-in turn indicators and an available power-fold mechanism. Previously optional, 17-inch wheels became standard. Interiors sported additional wood trim, softer leather upholstery, a redesigned center console with more cup holders, and child-seat anchors for the second and third rows. An automatic parking-brake release, front-seat power lumbar adjustment and a Homelink universal transmitter became standard.
