Ice Cube who plays Nick Persons underwent a lot of mishaps in the roadtrip to Vancouver as his pimped up Navigator got trashed and destroyed by a failed attempt to hot-wire the car to get it starting.

	The 1998 Navigator introduced the concept of the American luxury SUV, competing at first with only the [[Land Rover Range Rover]]. It was trimmed with leather, wood, and fine carpeting, but its humble pickup truck roots could be easily spotted. This didn't slow sales, though, upon introduction of the Lincoln Navigator for the 1998 model year waiting lines for the Navigator formed. Competitors from [[Cadillac]] and [[GMC\|GMC]] with the [[GMC Denali\|Denali Series]] quickly followed. Much like the [[Cadillac Escalade]], the Navigator found a spot with celebrities and the customized truck scene.

	Tire-pressure monitoring was made standard for 2004, with [[stability control\|Roll Stability Control]] an option, and the mid-level ''Premium'' trim line was deleted. Along with a light facelift the powertrain was revised for 2005, with the [[DOHC]] 5.4 L [[V8]] being replaced by a new [[SOHC]] [[Ford Triton engine#3-valve\|3-valve]] design borrowed from the [[Ford F-150\|F-150]], driving the wheels through a new ZF Friedrichshafen AG-sourced 6-speed [[automatic transmission]]. The stability system was now standard on all models. An ''Elite'' package for the ''Ultimate'' trim includes a [[THX]] audio system, rear-seat entertainment, and [[high-intensity discharge\|HID headlights]] for 2006, the last year of this generation.
