    25% over MSRP? Better off doing factory order?

    Minor update: A month later and one of the expeditions that spurred this thread is still available. Although the mark up has dropped considerably and I think it is around 5%. They have called me once a week about it. A little surprised as they seemed so confident some one would schoop it up...

    2022 Expedition - Schedule for production ?

    I was told by one dealer that this was one of the few expeditions that the dealer was able to take normal delivery of. He said they have only gotten 5 2022s since launch. Hearsay but that is what I was told. He also said they have less luxo options standard which helped them with chip delays...

    25% over MSRP? Better off doing factory order?

    So I am looking for a Limited with the 304A package. There are a number within a 1-2hr drive but they are all pretty high over MSRP, as in 25% higher. I didnt attempt to negotiate. Is this pretty normal these days? Maybe Im naive but I dont see this being a car worth 115k. Second question...
