2022 Ram HD Builds and orders - Post and discuss your TRUCK order here! ** NEW USERS READ POST #1 **

So my wife just called and said "after seeing that truck today try to pull that tractor, maybe you should get the 3500 over the 2500"......okay, that never happens. So what would you guys guess the delay would be on changing my order from a loaded 2500 to a 3500? I think I saw that someone else did this already.
I ordered a 2500 Laramie, then a month later canceled and ordered the same truck in 3500. As dumb as this might sound, the coil springs was the reason. Gotta have leaf springs. Don't know why, just do. And BTW, the 3500 was $2,400.00 more.
The 2500 has a "Equipment Listing" page when I entered the VIN. Semi loaded Laramie
Ordered 5.29.21 3C6UR5FJ4NG103579.
Nothing on the 3500 ordeded 6.25.21
 
Were you restricted form ordering the Night Edition (based on pic).
Not one that I wanted so I didn't ask about that option. As many times as I reworked my order, I tried not to waste too much of his time since other people were waiting on him. Below is my build sheet to show everyone what was not restricted on the Limited.

You ordered it and put down a deposit. That is the name of the game. If your order was a "sold order" you have priority. If you have a bunch of options like Limited, hot tub ect.... your truck will get pushed. They have supply line issues, so some trucks move through faster than others. I ordered mine on Aug 7th and it is already built. 3500 Tradesman HO. I need a truck, not a hooker... So mine is stripped down and ready to go.
I'll take the hooker, LOL
 
Ordered 7/14 and just got cryptostickers build sheet today.

2500 4x4 Longhorn Hemi
Pearl White
Sunroof
Air Suspension
Safety Group

and a bunch of other options that probably wouldn't have held it up. It's great when you forget about it for a month and then get the email

I advised of this as well some time ago. Ram quit making 2500's w/leafs some years back, you can only get 2500's with coils now. I just had a 15' Ram with leafs as well and i had no squatting at all with loads up around 9k-12k pounds, my bro-in-law bought an 18' 2500 tradesman and it has coils and his load handling sucks a$$, and he had a ton of issues with his bed being level with a 3" level/lift. That is the number one reason I went with a 3500. My son-in-law also has an 18' Ram Limited w/only factory airbags (no coils/no leafs), I had to use his truck to pull my camper Labor Day Weekend and it was squirmy as hell.

Well, my wife called back and said never mind. She called another dealership and they told her it would be Jan / Feb before it would be in so she said I can upgrade later. But I didnt know that about the springs. I also didn't know that a 50 gal tank was an option. I am making a list already.

I was told never to pull anything with a lifted truck, ever. I did get factory airbags on my 2500. My 2020 didn't have an issue pulling my 5th wheel but did squat a little bit so I got the airbags for this truck.
 
I want to know who Txsportdiver paid to get his 3500 limited MC built so quickly.. Ordered 7/31 and is built with a window sticker already.

Let us know who we need to send the check too….
I think it's sheer, dumb luck...and ordering from a high volume dealer (Sandi @ Mark Dodge) with no sunroof to leak...again

Bro-in-law had to add aftermarket air bags as well. He said he had too to offset the crappy coil squat and squirm as well. He also put an anti-sway bar on..... Seems like to much BS to add for a HD truck from factory IMAO ya know :/..reasoning for LEAFS
 
Got my VIN. Added it to the sheet. 3500 4X4 SRW Limited CC 8' box, Cummins HO. Night Edition, fully loaded but no sunroof or RamBox. Ordered 8/21, hoping Santa brings it in time for Christmas.
