What are people seeing for trade in values for 2020-2021 Aviators compared to benchmarks (KBB, TC Carfax)? Model and mileage--??
I got the top of KBB Excellent condition range for a 2020 BL. Edmunds was $12k lower than Carfax and TC.I just traded my 2019 Nautilus in October. The trade in value was right on point with KBB and Carfax. For some reason, Edmunds was way higher on both trade in and retail values. My dealer gave me what I had seen on KBB. I was not disappointed at all.
I am not a CR fan, but I think they got this one right unfortunately.Great question. I would imagine it won't be eye popping numbers, even with the demand for pre-owned vehicles at an all time high. I just saw Consumer Reports rank Lincoln products dead last reliability wise. I know there are many who are not Consumer Reports fans. But it is an opinion many swear by. And it will hurt some Lincoln values.
That is good news on the your 2022, but one case does not make a statistic such as is the basis for the CR rating. If I remember correctly, the CR rating is based on years previous to 2022, so lets hope the next rating will be a big improvement.Really depends I personally don't trust CR much and my 2022 hasn't had any issues. Even in my 2020 the issues were fairly minor and never affected drivability.

Well I guess you are the 1st person I know that has then. Nobody I know where I am at does.I do.![]()
Respect the point that complainers are usually the loudest voice. However, I respond, and do so even when every vehicle I had (pre-Lincoln) was/is issue free. The surveys are typically long and it takes some effort to fill them out.Well I guess you are the 1st person I know that has then. Nobody I know where I am at does.
I agree there the dealerships in my area have little to no aviators available of any type used/new and if they do have one they are asking a premium.Respect the point that complainers are usually the loudest voice.

Staying somewhat on topic . . . . . The prices for pre-owned Aviators, even year 2020, are up there. I know the prices are inflated now for any pre-owned vehicle. However, the market appears hot based on my unscientific watching of availability. Look at somewhere like Carmax. One week there will be 10+ Aviators listed. The next week it will be 2 or 3. They are moving them even with so-so reviews. Again, not a scientific assessment. But proof enough for me there are some takers.
I've been wondering about Consumer Reports ratings as well and wonder if they use stats from the old Aviator vs. the new model?Great question.

Do you know how they establish the Predicted reliability?"The 2022 Lincoln Aviator has a predicted reliability score of 75 out of 100. A J.D. Power predicted reliability score of 91-100 is considered the Best, 81-90 is Great, 70-80 is Average, and 0-69 is Fair and considered below average.Oct 8, 2021"
