This sailboat is super light with a small trailer - not like a 22ft speed boat or anything...

I never figured out that Transit Date value. I asked around and still have no understanding of what it means.

Here's what the tracking system is spitting out for that VIN customerName : vin : 5LMYJ9YY9LGL15673 receiptDate : 2019-05-30 etaEndDate : 1990-01-01 productionDate : shipmentDate : transitDate : make : Lincoln year : 2020 model : Aviator groupOrderType : Stock (222S) (OBC8T) trim : Black Label Grand Touring vehicleLineDescription : Aviator market : USA status : Scheduled to Week primaryStatus : In Order Processing windowSticker : 23484ab33b968b31eb5eb3373603f8db

I ordered in April and it was built on 7/19 - delivered on 10/10

Yes, Got car on Friday and have put about 300 miles on it. Drives really well (smooth) and very quiet. The interior is incredible and the look of the car is so great. Really happy with the purchase. I towed my son's 18' 420 sailboat for about 100 miles on Monday and actually forgot the trailer was on the car. The car is truly Quiet Flight. I'm still getting used to it and have not seen any issues. I'll do a long post once I have more time with the car.

Got mine on Friday. Love it!! Enjoying it this weekend and will report back during the week.

Ahh that silver seat piece is only on Black label. Keep us posted on the missing Speedo label solution. Regards,

@Bellanca did you ever get a resolution on this disappearing speedometer issue? Another owner is having the same issue on the Aviator Facebook group, which I highly recommend joining. https://www.facebook.com/groups/920229461360147/

I'll post more pics after the weekend.

Yes, the reality is that the seats are a lot lighter than in the Lincoln.com renders (Pic below) - but they're darker than the "Ebony BL" interior in the Black Label. This saddle brown color is really nice, if only it was possible in the Reserve.

My Reserve I Diamond Blue with Roast interior came into the dealer yesterday. I stopped by today to give it a once-over and it looks great. My worry about shifted rear panels (see original post in this thread) and other things mentioned on this board were non existent. While the outside was a bit dirty before cleaning, the interior was flawless. Here's hoping the functional things I couldn't test today are good at delivery on Friday.

I live in NYC, so the hitch is actually a good deterrent from people bumping me (not that I park on the street a lot). I frequently use the hitch transport 420 sailboats so I tend to leave it on to be functional and good protection. I figure I’d rather have just the hitch hole in the second cover and I would remove for actual trailering l when I need to plug it in.

Yes I plan to do the same if there is not an add'l version to accommodate the hitch. I was figuring i could use a digital caliper to measure from the top of the trim piece to each of the corners of the hitch receiver to figure the space to cut.

So it looks like the hitch cover on the 2020 Aviator is an all-or-nothing affair, where the cover is either on and covering the entire hitch receiver and plugs, or it's off and exposing the entire area. While I realize that the designers pretty much want the hitch hidden because it messes up the look of the car, there are definitely times where I would want the hitch connected for say, a weekend without that inelegant open look. Hoping there might be an additional cover to allow hitch to come thru bumper without all that exposed area.

Got word this morning that the car arrived to the Port of Newark in NJ. Now it unloads and sits in lot until a truck gets it and brings it to my dealership. Hopefully 1 week.

Mine hasn't updated in a number of days regardless of a lot of movement and various status thresholds. Take that status with a grain of salt. This is the forum that you have to post your VIN for him to look up. He has a lot of rules to be part of his process. Make sure you follow rules to get updates. https://blueovalforums.com/forums/index.php?/forum/80-vehicle-locator-by-ford-employees/ Regards
