Exactly, I was told by product development that to get my 360 view they could use a chip from a Tradesman, but I would lose the power fold function, I said I will ride it out and see

How many chips for those new extending tow mirrors you helped design? And by design I mean just copy the dang Ford mirrors already.

I just build the trucks, and deal with the engineers daily, who are working from home

Just got off the Ram Chat. My 2022 Limited Mega Cab night edition (with sunroof) is in the "Paint" stage. That's seems much further along than I've seen others on this thread.

In a perfect world, how long until it's actually finished? Lol. I'm thinking maybe November. Maybe sooner?

Ordered the same thing but without Sunroof, have seen no movement. When did you order?

There are multiple chips in each module
I realize that you could have more than one module could have multiple chips in a module but the vast majority of what is it a vehicle is dumb meaning there is no real computing going on just sending voltage here or there or giving a ground connection. Short of what is on the bus network it’s a voltage or resistance reading that is monitored by one of the smart modules like a pcm or tcm. Call me ignorant but a microchip is the cpu. the rest is just a circuit board to carry the voltage or supply grounds and create resistance to achieve a voltage. Don’t really see why you would have as many as some of these claims. Ev having substantially more I understand. I’d like to know why there would be more than one microchip short of what’s needed in the few modules that hold a small memory and actually do any computing. If you can explain im more than happy to hear the explanation.

The scheduling makes no sense at all.
I was reading an interview with the head of stellantis. They were asking about the impact to production with all the chip issues. They said something to the effect of “we’re going to build the higher profit vehicles first”. So…guessing after tradesman the limited megacab is the next highest profit?

Or those of us with the best deals ….are last.
