Just got in our 2022 Laramie crew diesel we ordered 7/29/21 for work. The Limited Mega 2500 I ordered on 5/18 is still in D1. Just noticed the Laramie has no 4 pin trailer connector?

You have to use a 7 to 4 pin adapter. Super cheap and available at Walmart. Easier to plug in and out too.
 
Well now that the relay thing is confirmed time to mothball Cummins builds and get on them Hemi builds Stellantis!!! Leave the Cummins in the crate.
Why when most pass and are being driven? Now I could understand that thinking. If everyone of the cummins were behind held Hostage.
 
Ok, something weird just happened. I decided to get some bad news today (I mean who can get enough of bad news), so I msg RamChat. Well, I had planned on asking to get my case escalated due to long time with no movement, AFTER I asked for my status. Well, while I was waiting for status, I went ahead and typed out my response about escalation. After I typed it, I “cut” the paragraph to paste it after my next response (yes, all my responses to RamChat are cut and paste, like theirs). Well, while I was waiting for her response, she answered my question about the escalation (THAT I NEVER ENTERED). So, apparently, they can see what you’re typing, even if you don’t enter the msg. Strange!!

Pretty much every chat support has the ability to see what the customer is typing even before they hit enter. A friend works for a large energy company as a chat support manager and routinely tells me tales of what people type, delete, and then retype more tactfully.
 
There were several in TX - some on lot and more In Transit with Window Stickers - cant remember dealers, maybe Arlington or Vernon TX + 2 in Covington, La at Rainbow CDJR last week and I believe 1 either In Transit or in New Orleans (Bergeron CDJR) - cant comment about pricing - I am waiting for a 3500 Megacab and randomly check my area and daughter's TX location
I live in metairie sounds like you live around here too
 
No 4 pin under bumper and no 2 1/2 to 2" receiver adaptor. Do have a multi-pin camera? plug in on bumper. Ordered Towing Technology b and 5th wheel gooseneck. No BSM.
 
What state? At this point I am ready to drive across country for a limited mega cab regardless if it is a 21 or 22 or hemi vs cummins
Use the CarGurus website or app to search. The only one I’ve found with a filter for Mega Cabs.
 
In my research, the 8.4 non-nav is not HD. I may be wrong, but the standards specs for it don't list HD, where the 8.4 NAV and 12"er do list HD.
This statement came from the Rep through the GM. It is waiting for “Your vehicle is built and waiting on the new R1 high performance radio.” It will have the 12” screen and 9 speakers.
 
Haven’t been able to keep up with the thread much over this week, but reached out to Sandi for my monthly update. VIN 3C63R3PL7NG115354 ordered 6/18, limited mega cummins with most all options, D1 w/estimated ship date of 11/12 per the updated POC. Dates are obviously flexible in this environment so we’ll see if that gets pushed out, but glad to see movement and be in the queue. Hold out hope, May and June orders!

My built sheet for my Laramie has that 4 pin connector wire listed as well as a 7 pin wiring harness...

OK, call me crazy but I just cancelled the Laramie CC I had on order since 10/7. I've replaced it with a Limited CC 4x4 longbed HO 50 gallon tank, air suspension, safety group, Towing Tech group, dual alternators, clearance lamps. Being a Limited it has the 360 camera and power running boards I wanted. All this in Patriot Blue w/Indigo Frost interior. What could possibly hold up this order? Waiting on a new VIN. Let the games begin.
Sounds almost like mine. I ordered 6/16, delivered around Oct. 15, picked it up a week ago today (Oct. 22). Differences: no air, no dual alts, black interior. Mine's SRW, not sure which way you went there.

Even if they are prioritizing higher end trims, you're probably talking 3-4 months. I read somewhere 50 gal tanks might be a thing that causes short delays (worth it though, even after just a week of having mine. It just makes me tear up to fuel). Once mine went D1 (early Sept.) the dates I got were only a few days off of actual. Honestly, I think I was just dumb lucky.
 
Funny story for your Halloween weekend....

My wife ordered a couch that is being manufactured by Lazyboy about 40 miles from our house. She ordered this couch in Feb 2021. She is still waiting on the couch to be made, and I told her it may have something to do with chip shortage. I told her the same chip that makes the couch power recline is the same one they use for the powered running boards on the truck...haha. So now the race is on, who will get there item first. Her couch from Neosho, MO, or my truck from Saltillo, Mexico! D1 status for 37 days today!

What‘s the status on the couch? Still D?

You must have ordered the Trailer camera wiring...so you should have a 12 pin connector in lieu of the 4 pin....correct? Also did you look under the rear seat and in the rear floor storage boxes for the 2.5 to 2 adapter? My 2019 had it with it from the factory. If you don't have it I would ask the dealer about it....that is getting you one for free.99.....LOL

EDIT: I looked at your build sheet and it doesn't mention the trailer camera wiring that must be the new standard replacing the 4 pin connector???

Just a thought here...... all those that ordered pre June 14 open order date. Maybe the DLR got your order but didnt put it in till June (when DLRs were allowed to place order to Ram). If they had a whole bunch to order, maybe they just had a stack and every day add a few orders and kept on going little by little. So maybe you think you placed order pre June 2021 but it wasnt actually submitted to Ram/FCA until after 6/14? Just a thought idk if true

We’re up to almost 40% of the spreadsheet with equipment listings. Progress, right?

Sort of. They’re building trucks but now they’re not moving out of the factory. My shipping estimate changed from 10/26 to 11/11 now. It’s progress but it’s not impressive.
