Cigarette ashes and a burn in the carpet.

Let's see how Ron Lewis deals with this on a $87k truck.

I do not smoke. Picked the truck up Friday after dark. Saw it Saturday and sent pics to the salesman.

brv10 has said we are on the same rail car, so this should be an update for me too. Sandi has sent me an update on Friday that had a ramp ETA of 11/13, so maybe it's moving quicker.
Definitely moving quickly it seems. I am a Mark Dodge order, too. My ship date was 11/6 with a ramp ETA of 11/16. That would mean 2 trains going to Port Allen within 3-5 days of each other. Unless y’all’s train from 11/3 didn’t leave until 11/6 with my truck and we’re all on the same train??

Wow. That’s a new one

I'm thinking the guys at the plant sneaking a smoke or the guy at the dealer detailing it for delivery.

So I called and was told I need to bring it in and leave it for them to take measurements to submit to Ram. Personally, that confused me. Are they going to cut out a chunk and try to glue in a new section? No chance. I want a new full carpet.

hey guys ! how many days before your build date do you go from D into d1 ?
I was in D for 4 months and went D1 a week ago....the kicker is usually you get an estimated ship and build date when you go D1. I however, do not have either. I have heard of this before but its rare. A few pages back maybe 20 -30 now someone with insider info said once you go D1 its an average of 23 days and the truck is built.
 
Also half full ... weeks ago it was MC , sunroof , floor liners and night edition holding up my order. I was told today that now its it's just Night Edition .
2022 Ordered July 2nd.
I wouldn't have said it was NE holding, I have a MC NE shipped out in the last few days ordered 7/28. Would likely be something else holding yours up. I know they have dropped NE for a while but I cant imagine them building mine over yours unless they were missing something you want i didn't get. I can see them doing dealer for dealer stock even though they say orders are priority.
 
Gentlemen, and Ladies of course,

Where are the go to sites for wheels and also wheel info, I don't plan to go large, factory specs are ok with me but I would like to change factory wheels and tires pretty soon. Maybe a little more offset but nothing ridiculous.

Thanks in advance.

I got my specs from CJC offroad, but It is a very specific spec that I was looking for. I ordered on Custom Offsets though. I ordered 37x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on 18x9 +18 Method NV 305s. They come Mounted and Balanced with TPMS. I did also need to order a 2.5 inch leveling kit from CJC so I can fit this. they should have some Fitment specs if you enter your truck model, but it is worth double checking elsewhere.

* Also worth noting I have the laramie coming with the factory fender flares, that will limit the Poke on those tires pretty well. I noticed you have a bighorn which wont come with factory flares.

exactly what i was looking for, yes you are correct, will not have flares, Think that's the only thing I will miss about a Laramie. May add something later but will see. Thank you for your knowledge!
 
Got word from Aaron at Mark Dodge earlier today. Truck is at the dealership and being prepped for me to get it this coming Saturday!
In case you're OCD as well as I was about the lug nuts, just got these in tonight, haven't driven with them yet but they fit pretty snug on there... I'm sticking with black but I got red too cause I wanted to see what it looked like... Also ordered a black wheel lock from McGuard. M14x1.5 lug 22mm hex

I had to get a laramie because of the Flares, vented seats, and power running boards (didnt want to install myself). Ended up spending an extra $8k, It is what it is.

I had something that looked similar on my truck but I picked it up and smelled it, couldn't have been ashes but I could've sworn it was by how it looked... And it was in my carpet too but vacuumed out thankfully... I just figured it was stuffing or something from the seats...
 
I am still in D and my order date was 6-16-21....so well over 4 months.... sucks

Yeah that does suck I have a feeling I won’t be any faster with the luck I have. I had a ram chat person tell me last week it will be in production soon but it’s still D and checked today was told to check back in a few weeks so it’s all random every time. But last week the person or computer was totally different then any other chat I’ve had told me the choice of color looks great in sunlight and used the model n trim level I was shocked rest of time is very short very generated responses. So I was crossing fingers this be the week but not to sure
