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.
I added the HD tow package and received a production week, 7 days later

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.
I do actually have the HD tow also. I forgot to list that. So I’m not completely sure what my hold up really is at this point. Should have just waited to buy a 22. I keep seeing them all over now.

Is yours 4x2 or 4x4? That may impact due to gears.

That’s true it’s a 4x4. We were back and forth on ordering a platinum and decided to save a little. Well I was told there are no hang ups on that model. Wish I would have just ordered that. Such a frustrating process.

We ordered a MY22 Navigator for my wife earlier in January and it took about 8 months to get built. The Expedition Timberline was what I was originally interested in but for my wife, she liked the Navigator better. After owning and driving the Navigator on a small road trip for Thanksgiving, I was ready to order a Timberline Expedition for my vehicle. I really like that Raptor high output 3.5L V6 engine! Same dealer who doesn't need a deposit and will honor X-PLAN pricing.


Dealer submitted the order on 11/19 and I got a VIN and a tentative production date 5 days later on the morning of Thanksgiving, 11/24. Currently projecting a 1/9 production week.

How do you get X-Plan Pricing?

There is finally a change in the inquiry display for my order - instead of just saying "In Production", there is now the date (12/3/2022) by the In Production point of the timeline. It started showing in production 10 days ago. I guess I should start clearing out the other side of the garage....

Awesome! Mine still hasn't populated that field, despite being "in production" for 11 days.

Our dealership said my delay could be due to the chips for screens, but that’s all been cleared up. They did confirm my new production date Feb 20, but said not to expect it to be that long. I don’t believe that. They haven’t been too helpful unfortunately.

Well good luck to us both…. we are on the same timeline so far, window sticker/invoice date of 11/28, and supposedly production the week of 12/5. So far, as of noon Thursday 12/8, no additional info and no change in the modules list. Really hoping she is built soon! Then we can start updating the “shipping and delivery timeline” thread …… come on logistics team, get us our shiny new trucks in days or weeks, not months. Pretty please?

Interesting information on the Ford Video Guy podcast this week. Expy production has a bunch of potential and actual scheduled feature deletions coming up. Perhaps the most important:
1) The foot operated lliftgate activation option is deleted for 2023. So this is why those of us that ordered with this deletion option selected are not seeing that deletion option on the Maroney. Also deleted on other vehicles in the Ford line, so maybe they listened to the complaints!
2) Platinum production starting 12/12 will not have the multi-contour seats. Ford will not update these vehicles at a later date, so your Platinum will not get these seats if produced after that date.
3) B&O radios - both the 12 and 23 speaker versions - may come with a reduced power capacity amp bass speaker depending on the inventory when your vehicle is produced.
4) Auto start/stop deletion if parts are not available (likely).
5) Second row windows one touch up/down deletion not available (likely).
6) Active park assist 2.0 removal (likely).
7) Side view mirror heated glass removal (possible future issues).
8) Inclination and intrusion sensor removal (possible future issues).
9) Platinum Blue Cruise removal (possible future issues).
The ones I have marked possible future issues are deletions Ford has notified dealers may happen as they are anticipating supplier issues.
Without the multi contour seats and blue cruise, I am not sure how they will sell a Platinum.
In any case - this is from Episode 69 of the Ford Video Guy (Tim Bartz) podcast. It is on youtube, titled "How will supply issues affect your order getting built?" and it covers all Ford products, the Expedition details are about an hour into the video.

After posting the previous note about the podcast, I checked my email and found the dreaded note from Ford saying stay tuned, we will contact you again within 45 days about when we might actually have all the pieces we need to actually build your Expy.

Starting to feel like I should have jumped on one of those last 2022s that have come out recently.
