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

A lot of trucks shipping... mine is as well. Ordered 1/28.
But a lot of those shipping appear to just be sitting- and it's very difficult to find out where and why. This has been like this for months. My truck was built and I had a reasonable expectation that it might actually arrive a week or even 10 days early. But ETAs kept getting pushed back and pushed pack and now I'm looking at maybe getting it 6 weeks late. it's frustrating because the customers and the dealers are just mushrooms when it comes to knowing what is going on.

I get it... I have been reading here that shippers are hard to come by. With so many trucks heading north that could definitely be a stall point. Not much anyone can do.
 
You're right it will be what it will be, but I am confident I will get a resolution - for sure I will need to assert some pressure tactics. Just to answer your question, no I don't have what I now know to be called a "POC" which would document the exact options that were ordered - I wish I had all the info from this forum before ordering! Anyways, hindsight is great :)
Here is that picture from the back of my bill of sale. Mind you it’s Canadian so I don’t know if it will be different from yours.

No recent replies on here so I'll add mine.
Ordered 3/5, received VIN 3/12
2500 Laramie Crew 4x4 Hemi Granite Crystal
Night Edition
Tow Technology Group "B" (no blind spot due to chip shortage)
Laramie Level "A" (no blind spot)
8.4 Uconnect (mixed feelings about the 12" but the extra 1200 went towards my sunroof that momma wanted)
Sunroof
Active Steering
4:10 Gears
Leather Buckets

Dealer phoned me last week and said he has a build date of April 5 and expects the truck to ship and arrive about 3 weeks from that date. IF it arrives as planned, it would seem I'm about 10 weeks from order to delivery.

I think Canadian consumer protection laws are different than those south of the border. I believe, at least in Ontario that incentives are in effect from time of order to time of delivery. You get the best one during that time frame. At least that is what my dealer stated. Right now they are offering $6250 on Ram trucks with diesels. 5000 cash and 1250 rebate. The rebate is taken off the tax in price. One thing for sure, given the amount of time from order to delivery to Canadians on these trucks most of us could get our money back based on the 90 days time limit. LOL
 
Just received word from my dealer. My PW is in Nashville and there doesn't appear to be anything barring it for delivery. They're hotlisting it. So, I'm cautiously optimistic about finally getting to sit in it within a week.
Welp just got my latest update from RamCares. Once again the same message except the delivery window is tighter; 23-25 March, which matches up with what my dealer updated me on yesterday.

Can it be the stars are beginning to align?
 
Status 03/23/21 --- Window Sticker is populated.

All options related to ICs\chips show up on both Build Sheet and Window Sticker, i.e. ParkView Rear Back–Up Camera, ParkSense Front and Rear Park–Assist System, Electronic Stability Control, Blind–Spot with Tag Trailer & Cross–Path Detection, etc.

Did not order the Trailer Camera Wiring.

Ordered 02/10/21 in MN: 2021 3500 Limited SB CC SRW HO NE P.Blue 5th TTPMS Air Susp everything else. Status: 02/17/21 - "D" and POC shows VIN and VON #'s.
Status: 02/24/21 Dealer says: "D1" with Est. Ship Date "Saying it should ship out of Mexico end of next month" = End of March.
Status: 03/22/21 Dealer says "KZ" status. Build Sheet/Equipment Listing is populated. Status: 03/23/21 Window Sticker is populated.
 
Just to reiterate for those who haven't read all 153 pages, the Limited/Longhorn trucks are not affected by the chip shortage and will still come with all the options that require them.
 
Were you informed that the blind spot (chip shortage) changed from a Laramie level 1 to a level A and the two technology changed to a group alpha due to the omitting of the B/S monitoring?
Ramcares chat just tells me "again today" that all build materials have been gathered and build scheduled but no equipment list or build sheet.

I ordered the same day, 2/10, same opt but Delmonico Red. No build / window sticker yet but you give me hope! Thanks!

Don’t get your hopes up too much. My LATEST email from RamCares gave me an estimated delivery date of 3/16-3/22 and we’ve obviously blown through that one again with no further communication. My order date was 12/5, gas.

That’s not what I was hoping to hear. I’m well inside my 3/19-4/2 delivery window, and was really hoping to have it by then. The most frustrating part is that it’s sitting on a Stellantis lot in Benicia, CA, just 4 hours away. I’d be happy to go drive and pick it up!

Yes, the truck is always at the rail yard waiting....and no one can figure out why.

Happy to be able to prove you wrong in this one instance, brother. Just got notified that the truck is here. Here are some pics in all her dirty glory.

But, hopefully, this is a harbinger of good things to come for all of the rest of you playing the waiting game.

I cannot wait to get off from work.
