Me too, since then I have acquired all the BSM parts,good to go.

Acquired them to install yourself?

 

[brv10]

Does anyone know the route that a truck would take going to the PNW?

North West! Oh, sorry, there have been a few different routes they have taken, hard to say which one yours will take

 

[brv10]

Acquired them to install yourself?

Yep

 

[Apaschke82]

Yep

Is it cheaper doing it yourself? How in-depth of a process is it to install everything for that?

 

[brv10]

Probably not cheaper, you need both BSM taillights and mirrors, the 2 rear jumper harnesses, the front jumpers from @jimmie07, and enable it, there is a thread on it.

Through Portland

For you sailors out there, you know who you are, here's hoping for a big ship status change today!

So I tried to order a 3500 Laramie night edition, dealer said ram has removed the night edition option.
I was also told if I try and order one with a sunroof, or any of the safety groups and basically any other option that the truck would be pushed to the back of the list.

I believe Canada is having the toughest time getting orders placed. Is your dealer giving you that info about night edition across the desk or phone, or are they getting that info from Stellantis, Chrysler Motor Group, Mopar and then passing what they said on to you? Have you tried a different package other than Laramie to get NE? I believe big horn or Limited could have NE as an option still. But do not take my word for it.

my 2021 Laramie has power folding as well. I dont know exactly when they changed it, but I was told by the dealer that they are manual fold now on the Laramie.

I recall remember they changed packages from A/B with pwr folding mirrors to C/D without on Sept 9.

For those with a crew cab, NOT mega cab, is there a way to get behind the rear seat? Seems like there's a little storage space there that would be nice to access.

Yes, while I'm waiting, I'm thinking about every stinking little thing....

I wonder if Ram Chat logs every time you contact them....then again, I don't care.

Maybe I should clean out my old truck soon, not that I expect the new one that soon, but.....the weather is getting colder.....
Honestly, the half back seat is full of 'just in case' stuff, heavy coats, tow straps and chains, little compressor, shovel, tie downs, and I'm honestly not sure what else....might be interesting....

Brutal_ho posted a video showing how to do this. https://hdrams.com/forum/index.php?threads/crew-cab-rear-seat-mod.3747/post-55880

Yes thanks!.
285/75r18....(also says 35x11.50 which I thought was unusual). Method 305HD 18x9 +18.

What do you mean "Method 305HD 18x9+18? Is your truck lifted?

 

[TLITT6981]

if this isn’t the right place for this question please disregard, does anyone know what options are available when I get my truck for some kind of lifetime powertrain or extended warranty?

Question for those that are getting FFP and ceramic coating put on your trucks…what areas do you have the FFP installed? I have one place saying bumper, hood, fenders, and underneath from cab to bed and another just bumper and underneath cab to bed. Thanks for any info.

It really depends on a few things to include:
1) How much do you wanna spend?
Xpel is what I have installed and it is not cheap. The larger the area to cover, the higher the price and it can quickly clime the more things you have covered.
2) What trim level and package do you have?
If you have chrome front bumper and front end, you won’t get that covered but if you have the Sport or Night edition it will come with a lot more painted surfaces.

I have talked to my Xpel guy and am
Expecting between $1500-$1800 for the coverage I’m planing on my Laramie Night Edition to include: front bumper, grill surround, headlights, front 20-24” of the hood, front end of the fenders, A pillars, lower 1/3 of all of the doors, door handle pockets, behind the front fenders, and in front of the read wheels. These are the highest likelihood placed to need the added protections. With the thin waterborne paints the now use, it’s important to me to have peace of mind that they are covered. This goes hand in hand with a good set of mudflats/rock guards.

That’s is the brand of wheel and it’s size and offset.

305-HD | NV | Matte Black

The 305-HD NV Wheel features an iconic 12 window design with a debossed Method logo on either side of the center cap. The lip undercut simulates a true beadlock wheel and has replaceable lip bolts with optional colors available. It boasts a Heavy Duty (HD) load rating of 4,500 lbs. to handle...

here is a quote I got yesterday for a partial front PPF and ceramic coating.

Anticipating dealer arrival any day now after 6/14 order and 11/29 train offload, I’ve been driving by the dealer each night…

…and admiring the couple HDs they offloaded or have…

…is it me or do the stock tires on these things look like temporary car donut tires?

So I’m sure I’ll get redirected to another thread, but real fast can anyone give me thoughts on a replacement tire and size that, perhaps lifts the truck slightly and fills up the wheel well more on my 20” NE rims?

I’d rather not invest in $K’s in a proper lift, new rims 37” etc just looking for a slight improvement…. TIA…

I'm curious about this set up as well.

 

[XIKJACK]

I’m going to get the extended warranty through RAM not the dealership 8 years 125,000 miles bumper to bumper. After the 3 years 36,000 miles it’s $100 deductible. Total cost is just a little over $4,600 pay over 25 months no interest.

If you don’t mind me asking how much you paid? Infotainment has the whole set for the like $1500 ish I believe? Didn’t know if it was worth sourcing the parts or just buying the set

 

[jfarm627]

Looks like other people are getting ETAs to dealer that have taken a boat ride. Mine on the other hand looks like it was left behind lol I give up

I know the feeling. No update at my dealer. Sitting at the port still.
