What air pressure do you have in your tires? Mine's the same as yours. But not that great of a ride. But I do still have 60 PSI in the rear tires. Will find out how it rides tomorrow. Hooking up the dump trailer, then 5 loads of Compost for the Garden. So will have around 20K behind it when loaded.
50 front 40 rears unloaded

You can probably also relate to local for us stealers too?
Ha! You bet! The only dealer of the six I contacted who gave more than a token off msrp has such a reputation for changing quoted prices, there was no way I would deal with them.

Some dealers are limited to so many order per month. Those say there allowed to order a Dozen, yours hit 13 or above. Then your order would hold until there new orders are allowed.
While Say Mark Dodge has so many more units there allowed to order. That is my thinking why one dealer has more trucks showing up. While some may be 90 days before there truck is even started gathering parts.
Also a lot of dealers get put on the bad list. If so there the ones that are not allowed to have a order started for 90 days.

Most of the above is just me thinking out loud. But I did stay next to a Holiday Inn Express Tuesday night.

Absolutely agree. Dealer allocation is key.
It’s not some mystical or theoretical thing, it is a real fact and not all dealers are created equal in that regard. There are certainly production aspects that drive order to delivery timelines as well, but I’d say you are always better assured a vehicle when you order from a dealer that has better allocation.

Going to be changing out the tires/wheels of my new truck once received. Going with a larger tire. The factory label on the door jam with recommended tire pressures will no longer come into play because I'm also changing tire manufacturer. I always go by the Tire Manufacturer's recommended PSI. The question I have is: "Can I program the TPMS to match the PSI of the new tires so I can tell if these new tires are loosing air? I'm also assuming I can use the stock TPMS's with my new tires/wheels.

At this point I'm wonder do I cancel my order and order from MD just go get the darn thing! Looking at the sheet there is no reason for mine not to have been built with the group around me.

You should be able to use stock sensors if you are willing to pay for dismount/remount factory tires to get them out. Sometimes its cheaper to get new sensors. If I'm not mistaken they added an option to '21 and up HD's that allows you to reset the pressure thresholds so that the low tire warning light doesn't stay on but make sure to verify that as I haven't received my 22 yet to be able to check. You may want to order the tool to adjust speedometer to match tire size as well depending on how much larger you are going on tires.

Also keep in mind that if you are keeping your second set as spares or to mount winter tires on etc it would make sense to leave the sensors in your old set. New ones should usually cost less than $200 for all 4 just for reference, this is from Custom Offset website

Awesome, another Kernersville truck on here! A heads up on the timeline I’ve experienced from Winston-Salem rail yard to dealer. Truck was suppose to arrive to rail yard 11/27, but was pushed back to 11/30. Arrived on the 30th to rail yard. Dealer had original date of 12/7 at their location, but that date has passed and my truck is still in the rail yard waiting to be picked up along with others.. no ETA from dealer for when it’ll arrive. My optimism says by Saturday, but more than likely next week I’ll be picking it up.
Yeah the told me there biggest problem was just getting it unloaded. Trucking was not the problem.

This has crossed my mind I’m at 3 months now and not one update and even my dealer has received orders after mine. They can’t get answers, ram chat can’t give me any answers they gave a control number and no answers not even a single email as said I would receive. Frustrating for sure and I can’t even think how bad anyone form may June July and August feel

I've got 45 psi front and 40 rear in the '17 on 37" tires and never tripped a low pressure light even tho that's way below where it should be stock. Just reads the pressures.
