Did you order the HD tow package? If not, those without it were put on chip hold. You can add it to your order and it should move your production date back to the left.
For the price of the HD tow package, it's a no brainer to add it to the vehicle. I would imagine it would help resale value down the road.

The info about the HD tow package is very useful. How do you find out these things? Should this have come from my dealership?

Yes your dealer should know…but it is hard to know what they keep up with…

It was posted to as a separate thread in this forum recently.

I have found a couple of sources today that indicate the first 2023's will be produced tomorrow, 11/29. I am kind of torn trying to decide if a day one build will be a good thing (more scrutiny and care) or a bad thing (they don't know how to build them yet). Since it is virtually identical to the 2022, I am leaning toward a good thing.

Let us know if yours goes from in production to built...

Ordered Aug. 23
Originally scheduled for production 2nd week of November, and it’s slowly been pushed to week of Feb. 20, 2023.

Limited 302a package, 4x2, 22” wheels, sync 4 12”, 2nd row captain chairs

Any ideas why it’s getting pushed so much while others are going into production? Dealership isn’t giving any answers.
I ordered pretty much the same one besides 4x4 and 15inch screen. I ordered 9/14 and have nothing yet! I have been told it’s the 302 limited package that is pushing them back. Along with the tow package. Super frustrating reading people that have ordered after and have dates already.

There are multiple posts in this forum including a separate thread dedicated to it that any Expedition order without the HD tow package will be delayed until spring due to a parts shortage. Have your dealer add the HD tow and it should move along, unless there is something else that has not yet been identified.
