2023 Ram HD Builds and orders - Post and discuss your TRUCK order here! ** NEW USERS READ POST #1 **

Hoping to place an order for a 3500 HO DRW, but still not sure what transmission will be in it. I've read an 8 Sp. Aisin, 10 Sp. Allison, or just a repeat of the 6 Sp. Aisin. Anyone know for sure?
Thanks
My order with the HO SRW has the 6 sp Aisin...... not sure if that will change later in the year but I would be surprised. I have been waiting since 2014....

Thanks. I bought a 2020 GMC SRW in part because it had the 10 speed. We're getting a heavier 5th Wheel and need a dually, so need to trade. Sure like the Ram but also really like the extra gears in the Allison
 
So do you think it’s possible to add the ventilation portion after the fact?
No idea. I guess it depends on it the only change between ventilated and non is the blower and wiring or if the foam and cover are different too.

It would be a better Jimmy question. He’s our retrofit guru here.
 
Got a VIN and Status D (firm Schedule, series number is assigned) today from the dealer. Specced truck on the 19th, signed paperwork on the 20th, and VIN today the 22nd.
I wish I got these. I ordered on the 12th, the order was accepted but no other movement. My salesman thought he was ordering me a 22 but I'm guessing the time it was submitted it converted to a 23. :oops: I'm hoping that didn't screw things up. I called my salesman and he is going to check up on it Monday.

Well dealer said that its in status code D and a VIN assigned even though there is no rambox delete and it has the 5th wheel prep... I told them in no uncertain terms that if this thing shows up without the full prep, including the 7 pin in the bed that I'm not accepting it. Fingers crossed it works out...
I was able to get Rambox delete through MD.

We just ordered a 23’ 3500 HO DRW and it is confirmed, 6 speed Aisin. Ordered on Monday and got the Vin on Wednesday!
 
Yeah not sure why my dealer is so resistant to making the change... If ram somehow figured out how to do both then I'm game...

But I have a feeling I'll be cursing a lot in a few months time

Give the option code to the dealer and if they cant change it go through MD. Granger wouldnt change it for me but MD could.

MD customer service is amazing though. So much so that Ill be driving my new truck over 2000 miles home lol

I LOVE driving though so I look forward to it.

I was thinking of going to MD but that is so so far away. Virginia (koons) is so much closer and they actually came in a few dollars less then MD. Though they said I have to use standard Chrysler financing instead of any 0% offers or I lose $1000. Depending on rates at the time it might be worth $1000 if they have a promo Apr
 
I ordered a 23 ram 3500 Laramie HO on the 19th. How long does it usually take before you receive the Vin? I’ve been checking it daily.

I got it the next day. Call your dealer and make sure it is not in BE status.

Like I said above, I’ll be driving 2000 plus miles home for mine. In my opinion, It’s worth the quote from MD.

I won’t push it anymore though.

Side note, will they (Chrysler) have 0% in April?
 
Has anyone been able to place a good order for a cab and chassis yet? My dealers are still unable to build my configuration...

Only time will tell!
 
The digital cluster is standard on Power Wagon, Longhorn, and Limited. It's on the Laramie with the Level 2 package. The sport performance hood had a fake hood scoop and some fake "vents" on top near the back. It comes with the Sport Appearance Package on Laramie or the Night Edition Package on Laramie and Limited.

At this point if you have a Limited with a 6'4" bed and without the 5th wheel prep package then the Rambles are not deleted. If you have 5th wheel prep the Ramboxes have to be deleted as you can't have both.
I didn’t see the “sport performance hood” listed on my build sheet. Last Monday, I ordered a Laramie 2500 6.7 with the night edition package and level 2, rear air suspension, etc. Curious if that sports hood will come on the 6.7 build. I think it would def look pretty badass!
Sucks that this build on a LARAMIE is now over 93k. I could have gotten every bell and all the whistles on a Limited platform last year for the same price. Ugh. The price increase is insane.

I think it should come as part of the Night Edition (ASH).
