Flight booked for Saturday morning to fly out to Seattle to pick up the truck. Phillip said 60-75 days, probably closer to 60 when I ordered 3/7. Arrived at the dealer in 58. Only problem is shipping price has doubled in 2 months from 1100 to over 2000. Decided to drive the 2200 miles for that price.

Same thing that I did last Saturday. My drive was only 435 miles though.
Are you getting hosed on the price of a last minute airfare?
I bought our plane tickets about 3 weeks ahead of time, and the total for 2 of us was $98.

I wouldn't say hosed but definitely not as cheap as yours. Bout $300. Around $200 if I went next week but I already had this time off for a camping trip. Pretty much impossible to get last minute vaca days this time of year due to minimum staffing levels at the fd.
 
Well, that was sure easy! THANX :)
No problem, just remember they expire at the end of each month when you print it so if truck isn't here by then you have to use the same link I posted and go get a new code. Don't just go to truecar website like others have tried or you have to sign up for the dealer contact program which is a big waste of your time. Be sure to save the link I gave you in your favorites to save a lot of time if it has to be redone. It took me a while on the 2nd truck I bought to find the right place to go so that's why I have shared it on this forum a few times for others to save time and money.
 
Online window sticker does not. No idea what is on truck.
I ordered my truck, it showed as a sold order yet the window sticker had the stealership's name on it. I was a little disappointed as this is my first and could be my only vehicle order ever.

I don't guess it matters a whole lot to me. Only other order I ever did was an '02 Chevy. Picked it up on 9/11/01 is the only thing I remember about that process.
 
Dealer texted me yesterday. Good news, truck is out of delayed status and its on its way here. EYA to get into AZ at our rail yard in El Mirage, AZ is 5/11, and typically takes about a week or less to get to the store. Hoping to pick it up the weekend of the May 15th ;)
 
Same here but my truck is going about 50 miles East of Benicia and I’m being told it can take about a week to get to dealership. I’m about 20 minutes from Benicia. Wish I could just go there to pick it up. Haha
True. Well, hopefully, it won't take too long. Here's to fast processing and transport.
 
The delays from the time the truck hits the port of entry and delivered to the dealer is because it has to go thru customs and prep. Remember, these trucks are coming in from Mexico.
There is a port of entry here where I work. I see the cars parked for weeks after getting off the ship before they move into the processing building. There are thousands of them sitting there waiting.
It is apparent that efficiency is not their strong point.
 
online sticker never has name on it. The one on the vehicle does though when it's an ordered vehicle
Yup, that's how it was with mine. The online window sticker didn't have a name on it, but when I picked it up, the paper one had my name in the upper right above the mileage rating.

They process a lot of vehicles from different manufactures. From what I've seen here, they do one manufacture at a time, maybe even one model at a time. It's more than just check the paperwork. So if they have 500 Genesis G80's, which come thru here, they will do those, then move to the G90, then the G70, etc. Then they may move to the Chevrolet trucks coming thru.

And they also ship vehicles out of here to overseas, so those have to go thru the same process. So I don't think its a efficiency problem. Just a lot of processing.
 
Received my Window Sticker 1 day after build sheet! Woohoo! Ordered 2/27 (Alberta, Canada). Build Sheet 5/5. Window Sticker 5/6.

Hopefully my truck will ship soon now it's been built. Any insights on shipping time to Canada? Dealer tells me 6 weeks - does that sound about right? Also, info for others. My sticker price is $72,795 CAD. I paid $61,150 + GST or $64,205 out the door. Around 16% off sticker + tax.

At the dealership picking up my truck. Gave them the $1,000 email I was sent by Ram. They told me my truck didn’t qualify and couldn’t provide a reason. Seems like ******** to me.

Here's what my email says qualifies- "1. Valid toward the purchase or lease of new and unused 2020 and 2021 (excluding Ram 1500 TRX) Ram trucks or vans. "
