Sounds like our trucks are exactly the same other than color. I also have the complete Carli suspension all options, wheels, tires, and lighting going in as soon as the truck arrives. I ordered it all in March and it was a race to see which would arrive first. The last piece of the Carli suspension arrived last week! Still no truck though LOL.

Six months to the day from ordering. Granger made it too easy.

Congrats! Nice truck. Granger was almost exactly 6 months on mine as well. Picked it up a couple of weeks ago.
 
Weird question, but since I can’t physically look at my truck yet, I’ve been looking at lots of the window stickers. Comparing. I went with a Hemi instead of the Cummins for personal reasons, but even comparing Hemis to Hemis I noticed that my greenhouse gases and smog rating was worse than most I looked at. What’s up with that?

only thing i can think of is the added weight of our truck build could be just enough to make it more smoggy. are the options all the same on the other trucks.

I can see that, being a drw and I went with 14000 gvw as well. Just caught me off guard I guess.

that will do it. a dually requires more engergy to get 4 wheels rolling vs 2 in the rear. Then the 14k gvrw vs 12k. rearend gearing may play a part as well 4:10 vs 3:73

Is yours on the spreadsheet? What number? Mine is next to last

I noticed you have a front license plate holder. does your state require a front license plate. I had heard that if the truck is order in a state that does not require it, then you dont get the front holder. I ordered in a state that doesnt require it, but the state i live in does. Worried ill hav eto buy one and have it shipped.

MD order. LA No front plate state. On my build sheet.

This has been asked a few times and seems there are different reasons could be ECM recall hail damage etc. but if the truck is ready to ship I believe what happens is when a train arrives they start moving trucks off the storage lot to the train at the same time trucks that are coming off the assembly line that are ready to ship go directly onto the train once the trains full it leaves so it’s not necessarily first done first to ship it’s a matter of why take a truck off the assembly line to storage just to pull another from storage onto the train may not be fair but it’s probably more about efficiency on a whole not individual trucks and orders.

Yeah, I guess if like the rest of the world, they have a shortage of workers they are probably trust trying to get as many trucks out as quickly as they can with the least amount of effort. Trying to stay hopeful that our truck will make it here before our trailer comes in. It seems like a lot of people who had builds in June and July are in similar situations.

Mine was built on 9/23 and it didn’t find itself on a train immediately so that may not be the case. Sitting on TBD for shipping and arriving on 11/10.
