Yep, KZLD, waiting for a train.

Can you tell me what my current status is?

Thank you!

Would Bayview not be my last stop? That's pretty close to koons.

I'm going to koons also and I think my railcar is in some intermediate station in IL or IN right now

Why cant you pick it up? Recalls?

Yes it’s scheduled to be repaired the right hand side looks to have even more damage (looks really tweaked). It sat in the rail yard for a month.

 

[Ironsides77]

That’s a bummer, sorry dude.

 

[dmhines]

I thought the load floor under the rear seat required brackets only the 60/40 bench has and that’s why it’s not available on the tradesman. You were able to find an aftermarket option that will work with the full one piece bench?

All the bolt holes are in the floor for a 60/40 rear bench in the tradesman. There are threads on how to retrofit if you google. Just need some bolts.

More than likely it happened on the train. Bumper damage happens allllllll the time when they load and unload the rail car.

Here is an example of how little faith one and all should put in the tracker:

MYTH: Truck shows built on 2/08 and that I am KZ waiting on rail car
FACT: Truck, as of today, is JB and has been for 35 days/5 weeks.

MYTH: Estimated delivery is 3/21
FACT: That's in 7 days...yeah, right

Saddle up, buckle up and enjoy the ride

 

[relbus]

Wonder how long until I see it? Can anyone provide a status code for where it’s at? Maybe body vendor? Or am I now awaiting a train?

 

[ranchhopper]

Like it! I've already got the correct lower grille in the parts pile but now you got me thinking. Would love a close up pic if you get an opportunity.

Right there with you

I cut the grille mesh with just using a hacksaw blade to put in my tow hooks I cut just enough to fit the hooks in. I think it looks better than the factory tow hook bezels because the mesh I left still intact fills it in better.

that looks great!

The shot with the 12 in. Uconnect confirms the suspicion that Ram has eliminated the center stack drawer from all bench seat versions for '23.

Man, you can't win for losing! Bad enough you lost your 22 and had to re-order, but now the black hole of "where is my truck?" at some offsite. I feel for you man. I think we rolled off the line close to each other and mine seemed to breeze through offsite in a couple days to a week.

Last update I have on mine is it has been sitting in a yard here in my home state of Ohio waiting for a 1 hour truck ride to the dealer. Not sure why its been almost 2 weeks with no movement on that last little leg, but the dealer says it should be here before the end of the month.

That's so close. It will be there before you know it, and the first time you drive it all the time you waited will melt away!

Here's more insult to injury - my truck was built on 1/30, 2 days before the new grid heater relay was used in all builds. I ran my VIN through the NHTSA site, and you guessed it, it's part of the recall. So whenever it finally arrives, it gets to sit longer waiting on a part.

Oh well...

Where's a gif of someone pounding their head on a desk when you need it?

At some point, your truck will have to move and get delivered. I think I'd take sitting in a lot waiting for recall parts vs in the Saltillo Mexico fog of 'offsite somewhere'.

I'm both excited and nervous my truck is close to being here. Excited after all the waiting and ready to leave my rusty GMC behind. Nervous if its going to show up with any incorrect options or options that disappeared as standard (like most Laramie trims delivered this year it seems). To add insult to injury, my dealer is also trying to screw me on my trade-in and screw with pricing now too. So I am beyond ready to see thing and take delivery already. Its been a long time since I last replaced a vehicle and it didn't take long to remind me how much I hate car dealers.
