Well, dealer said delivery window is 10/30-11/18 which aligns with the estimated delivery date online. Let's see how accurate it is, lol.

Im not saying bank on it. But everyone knows that all manufactures add more and more incentives later in the year. If a truck shows up the last week of the month, why not stall 7-9 days and see if a deal comes out. If a buyer waited 8 months for a truck surly the dealer can hold the truck for a week. I get some may not be able to do this and need the truck ASAP, but the economics of waiting a week say there is the potential for gain vs not waiting. The twist is the economy. FCA may play it conservative, knowing "luxury" truck models sell regardless of discounts. I'm hoping to see something on the trucks for Nov, but prepaired for it to exclude the Laramie and Limited. Mine is scheduled to come in between the 21-28 and I plan on telling the dealer i cant make it there until the 3rd of Nov. I dont need it until the 11th.

I think the market is in a weird spot right now. I got fortunate and took delivery in mid aug. I got zero percent for 3 years. A few weeks later it looked like they extended the zero percent from 36 months to up to 72. Seems that went away pretty quick. I think supply is catching up to demand, at least at my local dealers. Maybe ram is trying to assess the situation. I think incentives will come again but not sure when.

I don't think you will see much, HD'S are still moving, most offers are regional anyway, they could offer it but not in your area.

I agree. I think RAM and others are in a weird spot. Supply is catching up but their customers cant afford the lower trim levels due to inflation and interest rates. I imagine they will try and help out the tradesman up to the bighorn with discounts and maybe lower interest rate. Laramie may get a discount and Limited nothing. That's my prediction.

I'm still in AK but the truck has arrived at the dealer as of 10/6/22 !!!

Still in disbelief to be honest.

Congrats! Long wait finally over. So if i read your codes correctly it took about 1.5 months once it got on a rail car to get to alberta? If i remember correctly

Here's a bunch of pictures. Anything somebody wants to see let me know I'll try to get it. Interesting the little things that have been done from the 2016 truck. Between the cab and bed there is now a rubber gasket that I assume improves wind noise or aerodynamics. Fender fairs a touch different. Didn't see that before they were next to each other. Tailgate change I also didn't realize.

I don't think you will see much, HD'S are still moving, most offers are regional anyway, they could offer it but not in your area.

I live in CT and it would not surprise me to see them go the way of CA in restricting gas vehicles. This is one of the reasons I bought now. I suspect this would trigger incentives.

So I ordered a Larmine 2500 back in June. The website says Nov delivery, Shows the truck shipped yesterday. I am curious since my dealer was one that was not doing anything over MSRP when I ordered but I also realized ( and I am right) life could be pretty different 6 months from when I ordered. So, I am hoping when it shows up at the dealer I have some negotiation room. I wondered about thoughts on that with the current situation. I was promised they would hold the 0% for 36 but I am not sure if they will. I also don't know if I am ok with MSRP knowing that everything around us is more expensive. this isn't a work truck, it's a 6.4 gas to tow the jeep to the off-road park and maybe someday add a camper. so I guess I am asking. Does anyone have any luck lately getting a deal on their order when I arrived? Before we start, I understand, "get your deal before you order" but honestly with the volatility in the world, I truly figured this was going to happen, and any deal I secured 6 months ago, could be very different ( in my favor) today. So I am asking. TODAY, what do you think?

My truck is expected to arrive into town later this week. So if they could wait another week to go strike, I'd really appreciate it haha

The BWME said it will now enter negotiations with the association that represents management at the nation’s major freight railroads in an effort to reach a new deal. Without a new deal there could be a strike, but not until at least Nov. 19, according to the union. Things will remain status quo with the union’s contract until then.

2 months and counting waiting for a ride………….

Have you tried reaching out to Ram Care or Mike? When my truck hit 40 days KZ, I was able to escalate my case with RAM Care. 2 days later my truck shipped

Has anyone had Mike respond? He hasn't responded to any communication since 9/30 for me. Thanks.

I have found he is hit or miss. I think it due to the work he is doing in the background. Im kind_of_an_ass and dont like to be ignored. I pestered the $hit out of him and he updates me at least once a week now. I imagine he has a bunch of emails in his box as well as voicemail. Have to stay on top of his list or be a squeaky wheel i guess. Nobody with be an a better advocate for you, than you.

He responded the morning after my initial email, but I haven't had to reach out to him since. My truck shipped 2 days after I escalated my case with RAM Care and contacted Mike

same here. once i got his attention my truck shipped in 2 days and have not needed to contact him personally since. He does send me weekly updates as to where the train in though. I think some people's requests just get lost in the shuffle. I bet he is getting ton of them now.

As soon as I posted this - he responded with an email. FYI see part of his response:

"I’m sorry for the delays but the plant has been experiencing a rail car shortage for a few months which has added to the shipping delays."
