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

He ordered 7/26. He also ordered a Laramie chassis cab SRW. If you look at the spread sheet you’ll see pretty much everything around his is either delivered or at least has a build sheet.

For any that are thinking of having your truck shipped. BE VERY CAREFUL! I’m gonna enquirer through Renae at MD as I’m guessing they probably know reputable services but last night on a whim (stupid) I went on line and got a million texts and emails (more stupid). What I gather is they are a bunch of brokers and it will be very easy to get scammed. You’d have to vet the crap out of not only the broker but the actual carrier as well. Watching some YouTube stuff now. May have found some reputable folks but I’m thinking it might not be cost effective vs risk taken. Lower risk carrier (a must) higher price vs just do a fly down to Huston or something and then a 2 day drive back.
I’m leaning on fly down drive back.
Ive got pricing from others all over the board. From $900 to $2000. Mercury Auto transport was $1110 but dude was a bit pushy and way too into warning me to stay away from everyone else. He did though have some good advice, I’ll give him that. He made sure I’m very skeptical and that helped. Helped so much I’ll just do the fly and drive.

I'm going down this same road builderman. I ordered a 3500 through Mark Dodge on 12/15. I'm working with Sandi and we discussed the mechanics of shipping the truck out to Oregon when it arrives. We didn't dive into the finer details but it sounds like Mark Dodge will help facilitate selecting a transport company. It sounded like it would almost be a bidding process closer to when the truck arrives at the dealership.

Curious if anyone has transported a truck to the OR/WA area? If you have, how was the experience and what transport company did you use?
 
I’m sure this has been covered before, but does anyone know the rail route locations where Mark Dodge orders go. Where is the final drop off? I got an update over the phone, but it said it left ???? Springs, LA @ 3:03 am this morning. I couldn’t make out the first word of town name.

Only negatives I see are Houston Airports or New Orleans Airport these days are busy and not particularly people friendly facilities - Another option is Lake Charles airport - relative small airport but United and American used to service it - have not checked recently.

If you go to Houston use Houston Hobby airport instead of George Bush Airport. I used to fly in and out of Houston weekly for work and Hobby is a much smaller/less volume airport. I was always able to arrive 1 hour before boarding time including dropping off rental and checking firearm.

“Ram three thousand five hundred”

…I’m gonna go out on a limb and say you might want to find a more reputable source for information.

Everything I’ve heard from people who are deep in-the-know suggests a major refresh (meaning cab structure replacement to match the current 1500) is most likely not happening until 2025. At the rate they’re going now, they’ll be lucky to get caught up by 2023.

I'm asking a couple of guys to see if they heard what the updates are first hand now too.. I doubt any major transmission or anything just the cab and materials seems to be on track with all other manufacturers.

The transmission upgrade has been a rumor for almost three years now. Until you see something definitive from Ram / Stellantis, or hear the scoop from members here who are in-the-know, I wouldn’t get your hopes up unfortunately.

Things are rough in the supply chain world right now. They can’t even get the pigments to offer the full line of 2022 color options right now. I fear this will be the way of things for at least a year. Lots and lots of catching up to do across the board. We’re all still waiting to see how they address the 19-20 injection pump recall as well as the missing DPF sensor in the 2022’s. These are insane times!

I know of Denham Springs, but it is pretty much eastern BR, LA.

Saw multiple similar reports mid 2021 about all the changes coming for certain in 2022 model incl new Allison Transmission etc. First legitimate info was not until late August / early September and it pretty much matched +/- a few package changes that occurred after September orders were in.
