Yep. I always go with my own. Like to know what my "worst case scenario" is.

I used The 1000$ RAM coupon. I had a PenFed one, as well as a TrueCar one, but they wouldn't stack as they were all TDM codes.

That is strange because i used the $1000 ram bonus cash , Truecar $500, And two other codes for $500 each my dealer said i qualified for the day i picked it up. I think you should have been able to stack ram coupon and truecar for sure ?

How is Ram shipping trucks when these are sitting?

That was my question also. The article stated the Kentucky location was one of many staging lots for Ford and they're shutting down plants 5/19 - 6/30.

He said he tried and it would only let him apply one. I don't see why the dealer wouldn't do it if they could. It's not like it comes out of their pocket in anyway. The FCA Incentives phone people told me they wouldn't stack, as well. Maybe something has changed recently, or we had different types of coupons.
 
Got this update today from RAM Chat.

I am showing your vehicle is currently in the shipping process, the current ETA for delivery to the selling dealership is to be determined.

getting closer.
 
I talked to my dealer sales guy a couple of days ago. My truck should be off the train by the end of this week and at the dealer some time next week.
 
I wasn't able to get rebates / incentives applied as I'd hoped.

Applied:
  • 0% APR for 36 months
  • $1,000 Bonus Cash Allowance from Ram e-mail.

Excluded: Truecar and other employee purchase codes starting with MC5 but it deselected the 0% APR. I'm guessing the 0% will save me more than the $500 I was trying to apply.
 
Everyone on here has been very helpful with Rebates tracking statuses etc. Mine finally arrived and here are my times I hope it is helpful

3/5 - Oder Placed
3/26 - Received VIN
4/1 - 4/30 D1 Status
5/4 - Build Sheet
5/5 - Window Sticker
5/17 - Arrived at Dealer
5/20 - Picking it up

Does anyone know if Rail Ship Date is the day it was sent to the rail yard or is that when the train left? I'm assuming Ramp ETA is the day they expect it to make it to where they will pull it off the train.

The log I was sent says
Rail Ship Date 5/18
Ramp ETA 6/1

Estimated Delivery 5/27 - 6/10

*I can;t answer your question, but where/how did you get those dates?
 
RAM Chat informed me today my PW should arrive anytime from today to June 2nd. I was surprised to say the least.

Assuming it arrives at the end of this month, that is less than 8 weeks total. It is a base, base, base model Tradesman with the PW package and a brake controller only. Perhaps this accounts for the quick turnaround due to not being equipped with all of the fancy tech requiring additional chips.

First time I have ordered a vehicle built to my specs. It is definitely a test of patience, haha. Ordered from Dave Smith in Idaho. I am hoping for a late June delivery.

4/16: Ordered 21 PW
5/4: D1 status update from dealer, VIN from Ram Chat
5/17: Ram Chat says its in Framing
Click to expand...
5/18: Build Sheet on Crypto Stickers
5/20: Ram Chat says its built but pending additional options to be installed.
 
RAM 5500 ordered 4/14
Status changed today to "pending final inspection" with an estimated arrival off the train to the more local point of distribution of 6/13 and then transported to my dealer by approximately 6/25.

FCA incentive told me the incentive cash and Truecar both don't stack, since they are both TDM. Who knows, maybe you had different coupons...... Sometimes it seems like there are incentives based on specific dealership zip codes...

That's the same experience I had. I had three TDM coupons (Incentive cash, PenFed, and Truecar) and he said it'll only let him pick one, so we may as well pick the biggest. He asked if I was an FFA member, First Responder, etc, trying to see if I could qualify for anything else, but no dice.
