She sure is pretty.
I love that color but the pictures never do it justice.
You have to see this color in person to truly see it's beauty.

It’s definitely hard to describe…. to me it’s really unique in how it can look blue-ish, blue-green, greenish-gray, or almost charcoal gray-black depending on the lighting. Wife really likes it too, so life is good!

Our 2023 LTD Max also went into production a week early on 1/4 and was originally scheduled for 1/9. It's still in production, so no answer but at least a week judging by our timeline.
I've found the tracking website has been slow to update. It took well over a week to tell me the vehicle was built, after the dealership already called me to say it was built. And since it should be delivered to Atlanta via truck, not rail, it seems slow to me that it still shows being shipped and not yet delivered. I'm not sure they are shipping all that fast.

Looks awesome! Best color IMO! But I think I'm bias!

2023 Order Timeline update for anyone who cares:
I ordered a 2023 Limited SPP on 10/31/2022. Fairly loaded.
Just got an email today saying the build is scheduled for the week of Feb 27th! (Woot!)
Second row windows "One touch up and down" was deleted for parts availability. Would be nice to have but not a deal breaker.
Wooohoooo! I can taste it now!

Hi new to the forum here! Another order update in case it helps folks on timing:
I put in an order on 12/17/2022 for a 2023 Timberline, HD Tow, 501A package, Iconic Silver and just got the note from Ford saying production is scheduled for week of 2/20/2023.
We debated Stone Blue or Iconic Silver for a while and both look amazing. Looking forward to being a first time Expedition owner!

We really like our Iconic Silver Timberline. We have had it for 2 weeks now.

Iconic Silver looks great on our 2022 303A.

Congratulations! Iconic Silver was a tie for me….. we went Stone Blue with my wife as the tiebreaker and I really like the color so far. Good luck with your new ride and safe travels!
I just received another email about the 2023 we ordered in August delaying build date to March 23. It’s a limited, 304a, NO hd tow, smaller screen, captain chairs. Dealership told me back in Dec the delay was due to chips for the screen. I mentioned the HD towing and they said no and wouldn’t look into it. I jumped ship and bought the exact same thing except 2022 first of Dec from a different dealership. Love it.
So really, I’m just curious, has anyone else been delayed like that? If so, what did you order?

Got the same email. Ordered the first week of Oct (302a max 4x4, big screen, added max tow when dealer told me they were only picking up orders that included max tow) Had just changed the color from red to black the week before the email so don’t know if that was coincidence or not but just happy to finally have a build date scheduled.
Window sticker still isn’t populating though, is that the same for y’all who just got the vin/schedule notification?

Oh, also, seems like no one is getting stuck on chip holds for months after being built and parked like the F 150s we’re having? Really hoping to avoid that. Would honestly prefer to have the build date slip than have a built car parked for months in the elements waiting on chips.
Took 2 days from the time it showed in production till the window sticker populated. I did notice window sticker 1k$ more than when i ordered it.

No sticker for me yet.
I noticed the price increase as well on an order sheet after switching paint colors. Dealer said ford had raised the price after I ordered and that our original agreed upon price would still be honored.
That's good to hear. I have not talked to my dealer yet.
