MY2023 Aviator Order Timeline Tracking thread

Order placed on 5/26 for a Reserve - received production date on June 17th for August 25 - two weeks later it was moved to july 25th - a week later if was moved to week of July 18th - July 13th the Window sticker was generated and says in production with a blend date of July 21 - today July 28 have heard nothing - still says in production
 
I'm adding my info the this thread! Just ordered (7/28) a '23 Aviator, Black Label GT, Chrome Caviar with Chalet Color, Trailer Hitch.
We will be downsizing/trading in a navigator. They told me 4-6 months, lead time! Yikes. I don't think it'll be quite that long, but we will see.

It'll be "in Production" till it has all parts and is completed. It's probably sitting outside waiting for a chip. Status then changes to "Produced" and will get scheduled for shipment.

Welcome to the Forum. 👋
Going by previous posts, the vehicle you ordered seems to take longer to complete production than the Reserve.

Mine entered production on 7/23 with a blend date of 7/25. On 7/26 the modules went online showing the vehicle as being "alive" and then the next day it appeared in my Lincolnway app. It still shows as being in production though.

This site is very useful to track the order status of your vehicle and provide more information than the regular site.

 
Flight Blue Reserve in Canada.
Ordered: March 23, 2022
Built: July 13, 2022
Est'd delivery: mid-August (waiting on chip shortage)

your window sticker should show the blend date on the top - the is supposedly when the chasis and the body are put together

Similar to my order. We should be going down the line not all that far apart. What's your rotation number? 4 digit # top of Window sticker...mine is 2599

So what does the rotation number mean?
Nothing to the customer. From 1 to 999 and keeps rotating. Used for plant purposes only. They have to be able to identify vehicles quickly and keep track of them during it's assembly. All printouts stuck on both side of the units travelling down the line also reflect the rotation number.

Good morning Pete. I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of your Aviator to see if the Dynamic Handling Package will actually be on it. There has been so much uncertainty about it I'd really like to find out. Good luck.

Hi Peter. My Window sticker shows me getting it (DHP) and is included in the price, which does not guarantee that it'll be coming with it The sticker also shows the Hands free liftgate delete and the price indicates it's credit.
