EcoBoost in the Navigator? Seems like that could hurt sales, not help them! Personally, I would think that the EcoBoost would sell better in the Expedition.
But then again, everyone I know with the EcoBoost in an F150 wishes they had gotten the V8!
Ford’s global director, Matt VanDyke, confirmed the week before last, that the Lincoln Navigator would get the EcoBoost V-6, while the Expedition will hang onto V-8 power.
That’s more likely to further separate the two vehicles (they are also expected to differ more in appearance too) and because of the fact that more owners tow with the Expedition than the Navigator.
The Expedition will keep the more heavy-duty V-8 which can endure prolonged towing. A diesel engine is possible, but for now, has not been discussed in any near plans.
