Does anyone know why some 22 Expeditions to now have 5 full ridge lines on the roof and instead have one that is more like 1/2 length? Circled what I am talking about in the below picture

Would be interested in the reason as well! My platinum order was scheduled to day for 8/5 and got an email last night from Ford just saying that have supply issues and will be in contact every 45 days.

How are these new option codes different than the code 88R that was already added to delete the MCS option? Do we need to have BOTH added?

Basically my reason for asking was since it’s taking so long on the 2022’s I want to tell my dealer that I want to put in a 2023 order as soon as they open 6/23. Know we want a platinum but without seeing the colors offered I was hoping to just say put in a platinum in any color and we can iron out the color/final Options later but just submit it as soon as they can.

Does anyone know what changes can be made after an order is placed that will NOT reset the orders place in line? Color? Trim?

Turns out my dealer sets all customer orders to 10 when he submits them. The sales manager said he unfortunately can’t prioritize any customer over another, that he wish he could for repeat buyers like we are…..then maybe don’t set everyone to 10!!! Ha!

Thank you! This is the information I relied on to keep trying to find someone at the dealer who could add the 88R so was very helpful. Ford Marketing says they still show it as a limited production option so they didn’t even have the update that it was not going to be available.

Well the order manager was no help, but finally got the overall sales manager on the phone and he was able to add the MCS delete. What he said it’s showing for them is that the MCS seats aren’t available for scheduling right now but that they will be notified when they are available. He said he didn’t her anything that said they had to add it but agreed it would at a minimum delay the order more from being scheduled. Of the 18 orders they have outstanding, 5 are in production. He ordered a Limited with SPP for himself on 1/13 and said it started production this week.

So all models are having rear heated seats and 2nd row climate controls removed no matter what? Wonder if those can be retrofitted. Now my dealer says they don’t even see the option 88R to add to my unscheduled order. Called Ford Marketing and they confirmed the dealer should be able to see it. Strange.

Thank you for the great information! My salesman just texted me that they have moved me to priority 10.

I don’t know if my salesman is playing dumb or really doesn’t understand the process because when I asked if they had a lower priority code than 19 that he could give me his response was “10 and 19 priority means it is due to be reviewed or scheduled”. He did say they have 9 expeditions being previewed right now and was checking to see if mine was one of those.

First, thank you for providing this service! Based on the recent posts in the Rules thread I hope people will take the time to read them going forward so we don’t lose access to this type of information! Any information you can see on my order would be greatly appreciated. Dealer Code: F21023 Order Code: 0211 Thank you!

First got adaptive cruise control on my 2018 F150 and now will not buy anything without at least that capability. Ordered a 2022 Expedition Platinum to get BlueCruise for trips but at this rate we might get it in 2024!

Ain’t that the truth! I miss the older metallic blacks they had. My neighbor has a Ram 1500 and I love the black they have. Next to it my F150 looks wayyy to plain.

Thank you for continuing to give us some insight! Better than the radio silence many of us have from our dealers.

Can the Priority Level be changed by a dealer after an order is submitted?

I am in complete agreement with you! Also wish dealers would order anything besides black. Every Platinum I see available (which isn’t many) is black. Hate the black of my 2018 F150 so we want anything but that now! Ordered the Dark Matter Metallic.

Went with the Platinum 4x4 which so far hasn’t been the best choice!

Can priority level be changed anytime prior to an order being scheduled?

Biggest annoyance to me is the dealers who list the MSRP INCLUDING markup. That’s not the MSRP. Should be illegal to show a price as MSRP if it’s not what’s on the window sticker.

And they are cutting features left and right as well. Ford has seemed more likely to delay orders for a time vs delivering a sub-par vehicle. Now they are having no choice except to cut features! Though at least Ford is trying to do ones they can add later.

I think it’s only been one week out of the last 6 or 7 that have had orders scheduled too. Ordered 2/11 after another dealer told me 12/29 that I couldn’t order yet (frustrating so will not be buying my 3rd car from that dealer).

So all models are having rear heated seats and 2nd row climate controls removed no matter what? Wonder if those can be retrofitted.

Anyone get scheduled today? If so when did you order and what trim? Have seen a few people on various forums say they got scheduled today so just trying to see who the lucky ones are!

Both dealers I talked to around Atlanta said they would honor x-plan on an Expedition order, but one did say that you had to have a trade-in for them to honor it.
