2025 RAM HD Builds and Orders - Post and discuss your TRUCK order here! ** NEW USERS READ POST #1 **

Ummmmmm.....
Built in 1 day, and a Friday nonetheless? Am I gonna have a lemon?
I'm sitting here thinking "there's no point in refreshing the tracker on a Saturday - nothing will have changed". And then POOF! Your truck has been built!

WOW, that's fast from confirmed to built I have seen. Great news.
Idle time is the devil's playground. Let's hope all of ours get shipped and dropped off right away instead of hanging out with Thomas the Tank Engine for the next 2 months.

I think @fmetz has the record. Haven't heard any updates from him in a while.
He said Ordered 4/3, Scheduled 4/7, Production 4/11, Built 4/15.

Only takes 1 to 2 days to build one. Assembly lines are pretty efficient.

Mine took a while, ordered on December 9th, Scheduled Feb 5th, in-production Feb 16th, vehicle-built March 14th, Shipped March 16th Received at dealer April 4th. They sent it to get the bed sprayed and that took a while as the line was long.
 
Average is about 8 days from Production to Built.
…yeah, according to the unreliable tracker. Once the vehicle actually goes into E status, it goes through E, F, and G status in quick succession, and the truck rolls off the assembly line complete about 12 hours after it entered the production line.
 
mine was ordered the 14th and no changes in status since. I am assuming the tracker sent by Ram is accurate
 
I have not ordered as of yet but looking at Rams website and checking for the truck I am looking at there are many of them in Transit. So, I am thinking many are built like the rest of you guys, but the holdup is in the transportation end of it sitting at their holding area. Or like some other people here some damage done in transportation too. Which is sad.
 
This is what mine looked like when I bought it online. Truck was still filthy at delivery. Picture taken 15Mar25 - SoCal. Even after I got it home I was finding grit everywhere - like the hinge for the folding mirrors. Looks like it was sand blasted.

Looks like I will be contacting the dealership on Monday. Oil leak on the front of the engine on my 2025. It looks like the timing gear cover weeping down. Only 2,312 miles.

Something else is troubling here. The belt label shouldn’t that worn after 2300 miles. I worked for Gates for 10 years and after durability testing, the labels wouldn’t look that bad.
 
Here's a picture of a 2025 on a dealer's website (Athens, Texas). That's how they're advertising it. Pretty wild stuff. I'm glad Stellantis doesn't make underwear.

I have seen these ads also and wondered why they would post pics like this. Part of me wants to know if mine shows up this way and the other part thinks “ignorance is bliss”. I’ll be paint correcting mine after I get anyway, but some of the photos I’m seeing are mind blowing.
