New Nautilus owner

[John in Bismarck]

First post here. We just traded our 2020 Mercedes Benz GLE450 on a new 2020 Lincoln Nautilus Reserve. The Benz is a beautiful automobile with some impressive technology, but we had a few problems with it, one requiring a tow to the nearest dealer, which is 200 miles away. They couldn’t identify a specific problem, and we decided to trade it for a vehicle we could have serviced locally.

We’ve only had the Nautilus a few days, and we are liking it a lot. We got the only one the dealer had in stock, a pristine white awd with the 2.7 and “coffee” interior. I like coffee! It has the 21 inch wheels, which I didn’t want, but I have to admit they are nice looking.

We’ve owned lots of vehicles over the years, including several Fords (two others right now), but this is our first Lincoln.

I’m looking forward to learning from others here on this forum.

Welcome. We also are in our first Lincoln with Pristine white and tan interior. Seems to be same options with 21" wheels. So far so good with just over 1000 miles. Taking a 2200 mile trip next week. More later lol.

I am currently considering a new Nautilus. Does anyone know if the 2.7 V6 is a transverse or longitudnal engine?

Our first also and the same pristine white and tan interior. Just returned from a 2500 mile trip. used A/C most of the time in Texas. With cruse set at 65 or 70 averaged over 26 MPG. Saw over 30 for a few miles when we had to hold 55. Very satisfied with performance so far. Leaving on a 4K mile trip later this summer. More later.

Welcome. I have been learning from others on this forum. After a 5 month wait, our 2021 Ceramic Pearl,R2, 2.7 Nautilus finally arrived. So far we are impressed with the quiet, comfortable ride. Took it for a 100 mile break-in ride yesterday with a variety of highway and local speeds. Average gas mileage was 27.8. Coming from a 2017 Buick Enclave, which had ancient infotainment so now to teach this old dog new tricks with the whistles and bells of the Sync 4. It may take me awhile before I feel brave enough to try the parking assist.

There are some great YouTube videos on using the parking assist. I recommend watching them a couple of times before you use it. It works great.

Great suggestion. Thanks for your reply!
