Best car ever!

I have a 2003 it was bought new for my father as his company car it was always maintained and when he retired they gave it to him.After many years of abuse my dad does a lot of towing the rear end wore out.He sold it to me and i put another rear end in it.This car has 170,000 miles and runs like new the heated/air conditioned seats don't work anymore but i don't care i would sell my Porsche Boxster to keep this car going that's how much i like it!

Love this one!

We bought this car used, we couldn't be happier with it. Drives with the luxury of a Jag but can off-road like a F150. Even though it's a 2003 it drives like new.

Satisfied customer

This car is excellent for the price. It rides well and is reliable which is a plus as the last 2 used expeditions we had were newer but problematic. It looks great. The only problem I have is the heated seats don't work but it is 15 years old & an easy fix with heated seat cushions.

Awesome Truck

Love the Aviator as a smaller option to the Navigator. Similar to Ford Explore but with more bells and whistles. Enjoy the comfort of the truck and its horse power. Definitely a vehicle that can get up and go!

Oddball, but great car

32 valve motor was main reason for buying. Had an Explorer, Mountaineer and other suvs. This is the most versatile and comfortable than the others. Navigator was too big and Explorer and Mountaineer underpowered. This one works best for me. I am disappointed that the aftermarket performance vendors don't offer more products, but limited production probably doesn't warrant the research and development cost. Can't even find a blower kit for it. I'm a big fan of superchargers, so I'm disappointed. Still trying to see if maybe a Mustang Cobra kit can be made to work

AWESOME!!!!

Just bought a 2003 Aviator and love it!! Powerful, awesome ride, strong, great sound system, handling, great features and etc... Did not expect this! I guess they come with 4.6L Mustang GT engines and have high torque, the engine purs, revs and redlines like a rocket! (for an SUV) I test drove same year x5, cayenne, ML, tahoe and escalade and none of them compare!!
