Renae told me yesterday they have had so many trucks delivered recently that PDI is taking 7days and then it’s another 2-3 before financing can get to you.I've been in touch with Aaron at MD since the end of last week as my original delivery date was 7/4 and then it changed to TBD. We talked on Friday after I noticed the tracker updated delivery date to 7/9 and he told me it delivered the night before. Now it's a race to get it through PDI and into financing before I show up on Thursday....fingers crossed it will be ready.
Mines been setting there since JuneRenae told me yesterday they have had so many trucks delivered recently that PDI is taking 7days and then it’s another 2-3 before financing can get to you.
Mine arrived at Port Allen 7/5 but she said it’s a mess down there trying to get all the vehicles out to the dealers from there.
She told me to plan on 3 weeks to get from the port to the dealer then a week for PDI and 3 days for finance to reach out to me.Mines been setting there since June

Out of curiosity because I’m sober and can’t remember: what was rail time from Mexico to Port Allen?Mines been setting there since June

I’m starting to really question about whether our September trip will become a reality. We leave in 10 weeks, and my truck is still stuck with outside vendors (53 days now). A week for rail, 4 weeks at Port Allen/PDI/Financing, and a week minimum (unfortunately I do have a job…lol) for the 1,000 mile break in, means my truck has to ship within the next 4 weeks…UGH!It’s about a week transit to Port Allen, or that’s at least around the time my train took.
Kody showed me around their lot. When I was there, they had a huge section that were personal orders they were in charge of overseeing. He said that the salesmen hit them up all the time to sale one of those vehicles to someone who just showed up with cash.

There are two in there that could possibly be mine!!Bunch of Photos from Port Allen today at ~1pm
I don't recommended to take photos where I did, the place where you need to take them to get a good view of the yard is a very sketch I10 onramp![]()

My truck left Mexico around the 4th and got to Port Allen last night, so it does seem to be in line with a lot of other folks and take about a week to make the train trip. Factoring that MD seeming to have a lot of trucks coming in and working thru PDI and a couple of more days for financing, 3-4 weeks is probably the timeframe after leaving Port Allen. I can't get there until around the end of the first week in August so hopefully everything lines up.I’m starting to really question about whether our September trip will become a reality.

Mine was pushed 4 times now is in production! Ordered 2/04/22I was advised by my dealership that typically most builds are not pushed more than 4 dates. We both have Limited NE and close build dates. This could be the last push.
Hi,Sorry to hear about your truck..... I'm in Anchorage too. What dealership did you order from? I ended up placing an order from Mark Dodge in LA because none of the dealers here wanted to play ball other than MSRP. I will be flying down next week and driving my truck to Seattle to put it on the boat to Anchorage. Have you called Stellantis and fact checked the dealers story? I am not saying they are liars, but I have lost faith in the dealers here in town. I also think you could possibly get a better deal out of state. Dennis Dillion might be an option if you don't want to go as far as I am.
I figured. My salesman actually emailed me yesterday saying no movement. He said they call down there every day but are unable to get them out. Not sure what is going on if it's a lack of available transport with CA's amazing new laws basically crapping on the trucking industry?Not possible he said.....I suspected as much.
