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

Price Protection has to be added to the initial order when it is placed. With all the current changes and price increases, I would think
only dealers that had a high enough price mark-up would be able to hold order prices without the Price Protection Option. Not many
dealers out there that will loose money on a sale to keep a customer happy!

When my dealer updated me with new POC's that showed price increases, he told me not to worry because he always adds the no-charge
Price Protection Option. The only time it was not going to protect me is when my 2021 order got converted to a 2022 order. I was lucky that
the order got converted back to a 2021 order after a large fleet order was cancelled near the end of the 2021 model year.

Price Protection is a option offered in Canada and USA, it is shown in the North American FCA Sales Code Schedule.
I emailed Mark Dodge about this. They told me I would be charged the price that was on the POC after delivery. If for any reason it invoices for more, they (Mark Dodge) would hash it out with Ram. This makes sense to me.
 
Just got off phone with my dealer... He claims that tge FCA affliliate control numbers may be affected on the 1/2 ton 1500 models not on the 2500 models. But he said he would confirm with his Sales manager on Monday. Not sure if this is 100 percent but he claims my truck should be fine with the delivery of 10/1 to 10/13
 
Agree. Walked away from one with 5k price goiging. And a couple of more with $2k worth of unwanted junk dealer adons. $300 for wheel locks $700 gor dealer add on tracking. Actually found one dealer in Sulphur La that was willing to sell below MSRP with Hurricane Ida discount.
Reason I was looking is my 2015 RAM 2500 Limited MegaCab was totalled by a tree here in south Louisiana in recent Hurricane (8/29) - ended up ordering a new 3500 Longhorn MegaCab with Rambox and 18 inch wheels and Tow Camera pkg the way I wanted it and dealer in New Orleans is quoting price below MSRP, unlike those few with current inventory that can get away with what I consider to be Price Gouging ($2k-5k above MSRP - Laramie in Tx with rambox and addons was above $114k). I was quoted (but not promised) a probable 12 week delivery but already showing D1 status and 10/10 Ship Date (dealer says not to believe Ship Date - they have to put something there).
 
2022 BigHorn 3500 Crew 4x4 DRW, 6.7HO, Level B, Max Tow, (no other fancy electronics). Ordered 11aug2021, currently in D1. Estimated ship date 09oct2021.
And I ordered the same truck but with some extra options on July 27th and mine went from D1 status to D status. Maybe I'll get it by Christmas instead of October
 
Maybe the guy that shovels the coal got covid. I didn't get into the personal details
I'm hearing that there are big time shipping and supply chain delays across the country now. My guess is the train is being held up waiting on other cargo. Just a thought.
 
Is it a bad thing when you have your VIN memorized from typing it in so much?

I don’t have mine memorized but I do have a “copy and paste” statement for RamChat. I figured if they can do it……

It has my VIN, VON, name, address, phone number, email, and where’s my truck

Hemi or Cummins?
 
Got my usual Ram chat response today, still waiting on parts for my BH 3500 4x4 CC LB 6.7 SO SRW level 1, blind spot monitoring and a couple other options,, ordered 8-9, went to D status 8-20.
Is everyone using ram chat for updates or are you getting them from your dealer, I messaged my salesman and was told he can only track it once it ships.

Just talked to my salesman, aka my son, he said my 2500 BH is in D1 status with an estimated ship date of Oct 13. He works for Kim’s DCRJ in Laurel MS. I told I guess delivery sometime in November then. He just laughed and said end of October to early November. Fingers crossed.
