FYI my order tracker never changed from built. stuck on built for 4 weeks and then i got the call wednesday night that the car was delivered. strange. but your order was just after mine, so i suspect you should have it soon depending on your location. im in florida, but not sure when it actually shipped.

I seen this done for the 22 Navigator and thought I would do the same for the MY23 Aviator. (Sorry if this has been done already and I missed it, if that's the case, point me in that direction!)

I will update the thread for each major milestone (VIN # available, scheduled for production, window sticker available, vehicle control options visible in Lincoln App, build completed, vehicle shipped, delivered, and picked up)

If you anyone has any MY23 Aviator's on order, post your timelines below so we can help each other out and gauge the progress of these vehicles. Current Job 1 production is set for 6/27 per most recent Fleet Bulletin.

^^Welcome to the Forum John.
The interior looks somewhat similar to the Ebony Roast I have in mine.

Replacing an identical 2020 car. Love the interior. Trade in value 61.5K, lease buy out 48.4K. Will use the 13K less 3K MI sales tax as down payment on next Lease. Has been a great car just rolling value to new car. Not expecting many upgrades in design or content. Continue to worry about shift to EVs. I will never buy one. To many limitations.

That's basically what I've been doing with my leases. I'll be coming up to my 10th lease in the next 6 months or so. I've stopped buying them.

Did anyone get Lincoln or their dealer to include all weather mats, cargo cover or cargo rails? Seems like these items used to be included when you would get a car and now everything is extra.

 

[jestoddart]

Ordered July 25th, got notification Sept. 20th, that production process is scheduled to begin Nov. 21st, not looking great for a Christmas present, but maybe some hope.

I did find it ironic that the tracker page has a section about Owner benefits and they choose to highlight a feature they have pulled .. lol

I paid extra for the all weather mats when I leased in 2020. They are worth it. The Lincoln mats are superior to the Weather Tech mats. However, the dealer did include wheel locks free.

Just placed on order for a black label grand touring aviator. I spoke with Concierge because the dealer refused to add me to the order or give me the sales order number. Concierge was able to get me the order number so I can call them for updates. . They also advised the dealer to add me to the order in a month's time. Hoping the dealer will follow through.

Sad to hear that a dealer would not give you the info. That is really unacceptable and there is no reason for that with a major purchase or lease. consider talking to the dealer owner or change agents.

I have never had any of those items 'thrown in' or added by a dealer unless they were ordered. My 2020 Aviator came with the carpet mats and not the all-weather ones. I asked if they would exchange the mats for the liners and they did at no charge. As for the cargo area, I'm using both the liners I bought for my previous MKT and Explorer. The MKT liner is used to slide up and over the folded 2nd-row seats when I'm carrying certain items.

I know... But is hard to find a dealer that will take me seriously. So I'm hoping this is just a blip.

Ordered August 8, picking it up Thursday. Reserve 1, with all packages except rear entertainment.

Dealer must have found the vehicle in stock at another dealer or was one he had in his build cycle to be delivered. They just can't be built that fast anymore.. Very lucky and fast delivery.

I was thinking about all weather. Has anyone found the link to the cargo mat that covers the trunk and third row when folded? Or does the cargo mat only cover the trunk area?

Just received email stating I am scheduled for week of 11/7 and vin#. When will I have access to window sticker

Received update tonight. Build is now scheduled for week of 10/10

 

[MsDallas]

This exact same thing is still going on with me. It will be 2 months tomorrow since my order was placed. Did you happen to order the Jet Package on your vehicle? That is one thing I am not seeing on a lot of people whose order is going through

Hey Butterfly, have you received an update regarding your order yet???? I am STILL in processing .

Nope, followed the build on the Lincoln tracker. The funny part is this is the one time I really didn't want it until they original promise date of mid November, but are still happy to get it now.
