A couple build dates were in the 2/10 date range per sticker!
Dealer near me has a Max Platinum Stealth Appearance on order. Sticker show 1/29 as the "build" date (which I think is the date that the order is programmed with the actual build happening after that date).

my order still shows "on hold" off site according to my dealer.
Wow! Sorry! Wonder what's going on? Hope your situation is resolved soon and you get your vehicle. Mine is supposed to complete build on 2/25/25 per Ford. Getting built is one thing, actually getting the vehicle in a timely fashion after build is, I guess, a completely different thing! Fingers crossed for us all!

I live about 2 hours away from KTP. I'll go get it for you, if you like. Have to pay a toll to get across the river, though. ;)

Order status moved to “In Production” today. Also, met with Ford rep at local dealer who brought a 2025 Platinum Expedition from Michigan for training. He said major shipping push to begin next week. Acknowledged they have delayed shipping to insure quality. Anyway, got to be “up close and personal” with the new Expedition! While there are some “unique things” that will take some getting used to, overall, have to say I was impressed with vehicle!

I did a build on a King Ranch after reading this thread. The Gold is a total deal killer for me

Did the rep say anything about how it drives?

That's good, ut of course they are going to embellish lol. Guess we wait for press drives. Still wondering why even those arent done yet.

Per Fox Business News this morning Ford is offering "employee pricing" to any U.S. customer but the discount doesn't apply to 2025 Expeditions, Navigators, Raptors or Super Duty units. I think that at least part of the delay we are seeing is Ford trying to drain the dealer lots of leftover 2024's. On the Ford.com website there are 33 2024 Expeditions within 20 miles of Cincinnati and 123 within 100 miles. CJ Dave.

What irks me is i see ultimate platinums going to dealer stock but mine isnt getting built due to wheels. I wish we could write Ford scheduling and lodge a complaint.

Availability of wheels has been cited as a reason for the delays. Maybe other parts, too.

I was tracking a 24 locally they removed the $7000 prior retail cash offer and now offer employee pricing worth less than the cash back offer. Dealer also removed a material discount so appears they net raised the price on 2024s anticipating people will panic to buy the 2024s worrying about future cost increases. They will probably succeed as it notes about 70 people viewed the car in last 24 hours after sitting on lot for months.
