2021 Ram HD Builds and orders - Post and discuss your order here!

Good afternoon, First post and thought I would give the information on what I ordered. Ordered a 21' 2500 laramie 6.7 in bright white on October 6th and didn't think much on it. Called the dealer on December 1st and they gave me a vin and used the Ramchat thing and they said it is in JB Status with a delivery date of third week of December if everything stays on schedule. No idea when my build sheet was sent. Whenever I pull it up the date changes to whatever that current date is. Seems like mine if following the same timeframe as most everyone else that has posted. Hoping for a Christmas present haha.
Got on the Ramchat today and still in JB status(been there for 20 days now). Person on Ramchat said it's still on schedule. Have a hard time believing it's on schedule as it was supposed to be in Alaska last week. If I could find something on a lot I would definitely go that route right about now. Still no window sticker 20 days later.
 
I don't get it. My build is almost identical to yours. Only difference is crew cab vs regular cab, granite crystal vs red, and a few options you had that I don't. I ordered 20 days before you and I still don't have ETA.
well I don't believe them, I have been told it would ship on the 15th of Nov, also been told by them on one chat that it has shipped, so I am really just waiting for if and when my dealer, who don't return emails (I guess i could call but who has time for that in the digital world) lets me know they want me to come get it off their lot. Told my wife I was going to take the 11th off then quickly changed my mind....
 
Your getting further with ram chat then I am.. they don't even give me a code.. dealer said js but that was a month ago..ram chat tells me they'll check on it and then I get another email from Jeff who also doesn't have any info..
 
Man, I sure see a lot of Ladies with their panties in a bunch. Order then wait. Are you guys like 12 years old?
Dear God, when I order mine, I'm sure I won't whine like some on here.

Limited, 3500 DRW, all options, except the all around cam sys. Delmonico Red, chrome all the way.
 
I thought the HD 2500 and 3500 trucks were made in Michigan. Are they made in Mexico still?
When Trump was in office and started shaming American manufacturing companies for taking production outside of the US many car manufacturers started announcing plans to build plants stateside again. Some actually did it, others dragged their feet, then COVID happened. I waited to order a 2021 model because I was hopeful Ram would build them alongside the 1500s which are already built here...but it looks like we might be waiting a few more years, if it ever does happen.
I ordered the 2500 limited Diesel with just about all options on 11/3 and it was shipped as of 12/18 with an arrival date of 12/31/20 - 1/14/21
Wow, that’s quick compared to others here. I ordered the same configuration with a crew cab and short bed 30 days after you and got the same estimate for delivery. Which body style did you get?
Ram chat is working today? I thought only Mon-Fri?
I received an email from them on Saturday afternoon and a follow up Sunday night. Could be just part of the work from home environment they’re in now, but I assume they have weekend shifts as well to support dealerships and possibly roadside service as another individual pointed out.

Paint and cab are significant differences as they happen early in the manufacturing process. Vehicles are painted in batches, and different cab configurations require different frames and assembly jigs on the assembly line. If you were to compare VINs, even if the trucks were ordered at the same time, there’s probably a large difference between the sequence numbers.

I was told they don’t see the code anymore, that they just see a status. I think Ram chat is trying to get away from giving technical/operational information because many of the people who call don’t understand it. Your dealer now has more access in their ordering system than they do. Maybe Chat managers or supervisors have access to that information still, but a couple Ram Chat folks told me they used to but don’t anymore. From a business perspective, that makes a lot of sense. Support is overhead and costs companies a lot of money; whereas the dealer is franchised and they're already making money on the vehicle in question, so they don’t need to be compensated for answering your status requests like a Chat representative does.

Can’t speak to a 3500 specifically, but the 2500 comes with the camera system if you get the Limited level 1 group. There was a little misinformation earlier this year as to that, so you may actually have it.

I ordered the Mega Cab. My dealer gave me a build date of 12/18 about a week after I ordered and it held pretty true to that. Mine was built on 12/12
 
Just curious. What you all have ordered.. I ordered a loaded 2500 Laramie on 9/29.(moon roof,bed package, level 2, safety, towing tech). its was shipped to storage waiting finale inspection and add ons 11/23.. I still don't have a window sticker or delivery date ,and that is all the info I can get from ram chat and dealer.. is there something they are having trouble getting or did my truck get damaged and there fixing it.. I'm not sure what is going on..
I ordered a loaded laramie diesel on 9/25.
It was built on 11/20 and went to body vendor for power running boards and bed liner for over 2 weeks.

Definitely keep checking for your window sticker then, cryptostickers still said “not found” for my window sticker, but when I clicked the link it did show up.
 
It just populated the window sticker 2 minutes ago :)
I wonder if I have to contact the dealer to pull up the window sticker or if I can contact FCA and have them put my email into the system. Obviously the dealer didn't plug in my email to FCA since I haven't gotten any info from FCA / Ram since I've placed my order.

Question to everyone closing year end deals on 21s, have your dealers been giving you EP as the baseline or pushing back because the 21s are not part of the program?
Wasn't able to get EP...but I was able to get FFP which is still a good savings. We'll see what is out there when the truck is ready in a few months.
