The interior is extremely luxurious and the Navigator provides enormous amounts of space.

The Select trim is plenty enough and the 4WD drivetrain can opt for better stability. Select trim is plenty enough for all kinds of space and luxury needs. The Reserve package can be opted for by people who want the absolute best of luxury.
