MY2023 Aviator Order Timeline Tracking thread

I'm hoping mine comes in before the end of the month as there is a special offer on a 36 month lease at 2.99% and a complimentary Lincoln Maintenance Protection Plan. No info on shipping yet.

Just got my email saying it was built and being delivered this week. I hope someone enjoys it and that it is not a steaming pile after sitting in a parking lot for 5 months.

I received a similar email. I had ordered 01/10. Although I had agreed at the time to pay close to MSRP, I am not paying that now. So if they the dealer doesn't want to negotiate down I will move on and get a deal somewhere else. I have waited this long, I can wait till they start replacing the cameras on the Aviators already sitting at dealerships. When I ordered I was told 2 to 4 months. Granted it's not the dealership's fault, I cannot justify paying essentially full price for a 2023 that I may get by the end of September. Am I alone in this thinking? I know they have some demand for these vehicles but I believe the supply will outweigh the demand. Any thoughts on what one would consider a fair discount in this case? Thanks.

Your Lincoln vehicle has been built.​ Your 2023 Lincoln Aviator Black Label has been built. We are performing some final inspections and preparing to ship it to your Lincoln Retailer. Our current estimate for delivery to Green Lincoln is between September 13, 2023 and September 19, 2023. ​

Invoice less any rebates, incentives or private offers you may be entitled to I would guess? I’m pretty sure your dealer will want to hold the deal together and work with you. If not then as you said maybe move on.
Where are you located?

Thanks for the reply....I am in NC but certainly not above getting one out of state if it's a better deal.

Not fair. I ordered 2 months before you did.
Congratulations anyway.

Peter, mine has shipped. I had an update a few days ago with no change as well. And then suddenly it went to “shipped.” ETA of sept 21 to dealer. I bet yours is going to say shipped any day now.

Just checked it now and it shows "Shipped". The status changed yesterday the 12th.

Yes, I'd ordered mine on March 9, and it has shipped.

 

[LincolnBL]

That's good, when did Lincoln email say it was built ?

Thank you, Peter. PS I am a woman.

Thank you, Peter. PS I am a woman.

What, a woman on an automobile forum, that is more rare than some of the cars!

I've been following an Aviator GT via VIN number. This was dealer order entered on 3/14/2023 and listed as In Production since May. It just toggled to Built today 9/13/2023. I advise checking for rusted rotors and hail damage on any car sitting out in the open for several months. Please update any experience you have when taking ownship of one of these recall impacted vehicles.

Hmm, my order from Feb 8 still shows as "in production" March 29. Dealer says he isn't seeing anything different, and there are still none showing up for sale on his website. I guess they aren't going in order
