Being in buyback, it would be aggravating to learn that friends of the dealer are getting special treatment. BS, really, and no one asked me but I'm saying it, anyway.
2022 Navigator
- Thread starter Black Label
- Start date
I can imagine the frustration. The dealership didn’t move my number, someone higher up did. It could be at I ordered a different, more available configuration? I’m honestly not sure. I didn’t ask to be moved and the dealership didn’t do it.
FWIW, I ordered a white reserve L, monochromatic package, eLSD, heavy duty tow package, luxury package, 2nd row pass through.
Hi Tcrowe. It would not be randomly moved up in priority by someone higher up (the Ford Regional office or Dearborn etc.).
It also would not have been moved up due to configuration or any other similar criteria. Dealer retail orders are simply built in order of Priority code, scheduling, manufacturing and commodity constraints, etc. etc.
It would need to have been requested for one reason or another.
This is not a Dealer/BBB AutoLine/Lemon Law buyback, correct?
If it is not, then perhaps your "best friends in-laws" really like you, and have a good contact at the Regional office? No way to know unless you ask them. Just consider yourself lucky.
Good luck.
Haha, sorry if I sounded mad at you somehow. Not at all! Glad to see you got moved up. I hope that happens with me but my dealership sucks at giving me info if I don't prod them.
Build and price still isn't up, but they updated the site to include pkg prices, and trim descriptions.
FYI: 2022 MY is in production now!
Glad they know and yet I can’t get an answer from my idiotic dealership. Morons.
Just got a reply from my rep at my dealership. I'm still unscheduled.

Black Label are you locked in a navigator?
Test drive a AMG G63 it has 577 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque. About $150k

Not locked in but like the changes to the 2022. If it turns out to be a software nightmare, I'll wash my hands of it and Lincoln. Giving it a second chance with Sync 4, etc.

When did you ordered?
Oct 23
I ordered the 18th and I’m still unscheduled as well. Hopefully it will happen soon. Its disappointing to see people that have placed orders later already be scheduled but it is what it is. Hopefully we get our dates this week. Fingers crossed. I did speak with my dealer yesterday and ours is in some type of preview status. Not sure what that means.

That guy on Facebook was me. Why would I lie about the priority code? LoLHi Tcrowe. It is not "unbelievable" ("Inconceivable"...lol). However, it is unusual. As mentioned previously, Dealers can only assign a Retail order code from 10-19.
Any Priority code lower than 10 must be assigned by Ford Corporate/Regional offices. Often only in cases of buybacks etc. (i.e. Black Labels situation). or if one of Henry Ford's relatives wants to order a new Ford or Lincoln.
So, yes, it is unusual.
Good luck.
Exciting! Did they say when you’re scheduled for? Do you know your priority code?
She's hoping to find out tomorrow. No idea of priority code. Buyback so a bit different.
. Just happy to be making progress  | ||||
