Chatted with Ram customer care today about getting the recalls done so i can pick up my truck. They have assigned a specialist to look into it. Lets see if anything will get done.

My sales guy called me today to say the grid heater relay was replaced this morning. However, the trans dipstick they set aside for my truck got used on a different truck and they dont have any more in stock so, now i need to wait on that part. Just cant catch a break

Got the call from my sales guy. They just finished the trans dipstick recall. He needs about 90 minutes to get it clean/fueled up. Going up to sign papers ar 3:30pm. Only 292 days from when i placed my order.

If you are shopping for MOPAR Extended Warranties, check Zeigler - and use PAYINFULL for Promotional Code (assuming you are buying outright) - these are full up MOPAR not aftermarket
I just sent them an email asking what is the cost and longest warranty offered for 2023 Ram 3500 DRW Limited HO 6.7

That is one beautiful set up.. Congratulations on job well done. I am not sure if my truck came with the backup alarm.
I do not have the trailer, but truck came with extra TPMS sets for the trailers. Did you use different rims for your Falken Wildpeak A/T3W 285/65R20? Did you lift your truck? As for the extend insurance, I did call the Zeiger Ford and the pricing is same as what I paid at the dealer. I will post my pics when I get it back from PPL, Ceramic Coat and , Nano tints.

My truck? 285/65R20 fit factory wheels great, no lift, no trimming. I have an ever so slight rub on the driver side radius arms, just enough to buff off a little paint.

I've consider the high clearance radius arms from Thuren or Carli, don't recall which has them, but it's really not needed.

I see on the spreadsheet that my equipment listing is available, but right click the link and it says "No records found corresponding to the VIN provided" look at others and the show the equipment listing. Can someone check my listing please?

3C6UR5FL1NG116842 looking at a used truck with this vin that only has 2k miles. Did you end up taking delivery of this truck and something wrong with it? Been on the lot for over a year with those low miles.

Thanks appreciate it. They want $2k over original msrp anyways the fact it’s been sitting so long made me think something was in its history anyways.

I got my 23 3500 Limited DRW HO 6.7 4.1 with 7k off msrp about 2 months ago in Houston. You can also contact Grangermotors 515-531-5328 mvp@grangermotors.com
You can check them on google review and many rates them very high. I also used them in getting the extended warranty, $50 over invoice for 8 yr 125k mile with $100 ded. They were super easy to to work with.

Dang that water is HARD! I really hope it all buffed out for ya! I'm a little happier I went with a light (white) color after seeing that mess.
The spray-in bed liner business is totally to blame for the incompetence, but it seems like that could have happened anywhere that is providing a service to your truck involving water; such a car wash, detail place or even the ceramic coating place.
I am a professional amateur auto body and paint guy for something like 50+ years . My 2022 2500 (purchased new) in delmonico red has the crappiest clear coat I have ever seen on a new vehicle . Water spots water spots water spots ! It is NOT the makeup of our/my water because I don't have this problem with any other vehicle . My guess is some ridiculous "green" influence like possibly water born paint or something . Every time the dordge gets wet . . . if you dont dry it immed it becomes necessary to polish compound or wax the truck to get the spots out . This is really upsetting to me because it's nearly impossible to keep the paint looking really nice . Hard for me to believe that Stellantis has gotten away with this OEM factory crap clear coat .

Mine is super prone to water spots as well. I figured it was a combination if being coated and 350 TDS water. It also has really bad orange peel which bothers me even more.

My 22 Crystal Black is fine, no spots after washing.
Same with my 22 Crystal Black 2500. But I regularly apply Mother's CMX ceramic spray coating to it. Does not take long at all to do the whole truck. Much faster than waxing it.
