Anyone get an equipment list today?
 
Wow, great thread here. I just found this forum after putting in my order for my new Dually at my local dealer. I purchased my last 2 dodges from them, my 2016 eco diesel that I loved until I felt like I needed to send it after hearing what I thought was a lower end knock on cold start up... only heard it once but traded it in for a new Charger Scat Pack ... Got really great trade in money and got the eco-diesel settlement check from FCA.. still miss all the creature comforts of it, had the Larami package. But, missed driving my 02 3500 dually, so broke it back out and enjoyed it after doing some needed maintenance. Brings me to why I ordered a new one... thought I keep my 02 3500 forever, but we purchased a new 40ft 5th wheel RV, installed a new 5th wheel in the o2, no problem towing but the more I thought about it... would hate to break down on the other side of the country with my ole baby, not to mention, ac was out, last of the old loud engines, can't hear my wife talking going down the road... and lastly, spoiled with the Sirius and other features of the big screen in my other vehicles.

So after doing a little research, getting some good quotes from dealers around the country, I came back to my local dealer, and they matched the best quotes I found. Not sure of the percentage, but built a Big Horn Night Edition DRW to the tune of 78,000 plus and got my dealer down to 73,400. Thanks to this thread, I went back to my dealer and got the vin #, loaded it into Ram order tracking system, got it listed and can now try to relax while waiting for updates. Also, reading about the upcharges on the deal here, I made sure to get a verbal agreement that it won't happen. So far, I also read here about the veteran rebate different than the factory vet rebate where you have to be active military, I didn't qualify for, but this one looks like I do for another 500 off, coupled with my business rebate for 500 and my dealer said if anything else comes up before my truck comes in.. I'll get it. I'm excited, just have to keep my 02 running for a few more months or more.. Thanks so much guys!!

Can't wait to see this in person!!!

Congratulations on your order. Beautiful truck!

Things seem to be picking up a bit these days. But timing is still hit or miss. I ordered my Limited HO CTD 3500 SRW totally loaded with every option on 12/2. It just hit "D1" (all parts gathered and preparing to sequence for build) a few days ago. Hoping to see it by March-ish.

These trucks are amazing!
 
Was it this dude ?

Thanks for posting this. Very helpful to see just how many steps it takes for rail delivery. I'm in the "People's Republic of Washington State", so I'll assume a longer freight duration.

I dont know how you long timers have done it. I’m at estimated build date + 3 without an equipment list, and I’m going bonkers.
 
I'm in Colorado, but honestly I'll travel wherever to get the best deal.
Call Dave Maestas (Sales Mgr) at AN Arapahoe and tell him you want to factory order and want invoice price less the full holdback. If you know what you want (use the build site) and go into it prepared, you can get the same deal. You might be paying a bit more than MD but will save yourself the travel time and expense. If he balks just tell him you'll get one 5% below invoice from MD in LA.
 
More Info tire recall
  • Bridgestone is recalling 10,380 Firestone Transforce HT and Firestone Transforce AT tires in size LT275/70R18.
  • Affected tires were manufactured between May 2, 2021 and May 8, 2021.
  • Tires included in this recall were supplied to Stellantis as original equipment for installation on 2021-2022 RAM 2500 and RAM 3500 vehicles and were sold through retailers in the replacement market in the U.S. and Canada.
Bridgestone Americas and Bridgestone Canada (Bridgestone) are collectively issuing a voluntary recall for 10,380 Firestone Transforce HT and Firestone Transforce AT tires in size LT275/70R18. Manufactured between May 2, 2021 and May 8, 2021, tires included in this recall were supplied to Stellantis as original equipment for installation on 2021-2022 RAM 2500 and RAM 3500 vehicles and were sold through retailers in the replacement market in the U.S. and Canada.

Tires included in this recall are as follows:
· Firestone Transforce HT in size LT275/70R18 with DOT Tire Identification Number VN 15 TH7 1821;
· Firestone Transforce AT in size LT275/70R18 with DOT Tire Identification Number VN 15 TR9 1821.


There are no known accidents or injuries involving tires subject to this recall. However, Bridgestone has determined that affected tires were not manufactured according to specification, and this could pose a safety risk. Bridgestone has notified regulatory agencies in the U.S. and Canada in accordance with applicable laws.

Specifically, tires included in this recall may have been manufactured with an incorrect inner liner rubber compound. This may result in increased air permeability and/or inner liner cracking. Increased permeability and/or cracking could allow air and moisture to migrate through the inner liner, into the tire’s carcass and eventually to the belt edges, which could lead to belt edge separations later in the tires’ service life. If undetected, belt edge separations could progress to belt detachments, potentially leading to loss of vehicle control and an increased risk of a crash.

Bridgestone estimates approximately 5% of all recalled tires have the affected condition. However, out of an abundance of caution, Bridgestone has extended the scope of the recall to include all potentially affected tires within the compromised DOT date code ranges.
Tires included in this recall were primarily supplied to Stellantis as original equipment for installation on 2021-2022 RAM 2500 and RAM 3500 vehicles. In addition, affected tires were sold to

Bridgestone’s company-owned retail stores in the U.S., as well as authorized Bridgestone tire retailers, dealers and distributors in the U.S. and Canada.

All known customers, distributors and dealers will receive notification of the recall. Consistent with the company’s longstanding commitment to safety, customer satisfaction and service, owners may take their vehicle to a Bridgestone company-owned retail store or a Bridgestone/Firestone authorized retail location for inspection to determine if they have a tire included in this recall.

Bridgestone will replace affected tires with a comparable Bridgestone or Firestone brand tire or other suitable replacement at no charge to customers.

That feature is almost the ONLY non-removable option that made me NOT want a Limited.

I say almost because the Limited interior stitching pattern reminds me of an ex-girlfriends tribal tramp stamp tattoo. Didn't want to look at that for a decade of owning the truck.

Hahaha. I have to say, that stitching is the only thing I can’t stand about the Limited interior. They really could have done without it.

KZX!! After being told the date was pushed back it showed up yesterday unexpected! Ordered August 20th, delivered February 3rd. Thanks to everyone who helped through this process. Well worth the wait!

That green with the black accents looks awesome! Nice truck!!

Thanks GTGuy, I've been pretty much online looking at my option list and still building different combos.... for the heck of it... no matter how I build it ... what I settled on, was the best and most I could spend. Actually, would have liked to have had an MSRP under 70 to start with... saw a dealer that had that 2021 olive green color with the Night Edition coming in at MSRP 68,000, but it was sold ... it didn't quite give me what I wanted, would have grabbed it, if it was available just for the color... Ideally, I would have a build over 85,000 to 95,000 ... but that was just 10,000 to 20,000 more than I was willing to hang my tongue out on. I'm totally happy with what I got, covered all my bases a little conservatively ... I'll just have to get mud flaps, floor mats, tonnue cover and a few other goo gads ..

What Vet rebate did you find? The only Vet rebate I could find is through FCA and you have to be discharged within the last 12 months, I left the Air force in 92'
 
@brv10 can you confirm if 3C63RRRL1NG140752 is actually D1 when you get a chance? Dealer gave me an estimated ship date later this month, but Ramchat says there is no ETA.

TrueCar has a rebate for $500 right now for any vet. Just go to TrueCar and verify your status with ID.me.
