You can get the charger as a mopar part set and put it in yourself or have someone do it. It's like $250. Same for powered running boards of you can't get them. Mopar or aftermarket.

Production dates are guesses at best 95% of the time.

IIRC there is no mopar kit for the powered running boards for the HD line. You prob could make it work, splice some wiring or Jimmy maybe has a PnP harness? But there is nothing offtheshelf from mopar.
Unless thats changed?

Same here... guess I will need to demand my Rechargeable Vacuum and 4 Disc Changer upon pickup.
Vendor painted cargo box, I assume this is still your standard bed and not the Ram box? They only come standard on the Limited's where you would need to delete correct? All other trims you would have needed to select in order to have them?

It would be cool to see a date, however it seems like there is still a bunch of 2022's to yet be built. And shipping the built ones out seems like a giant fiasco. I would rather mine be built and shipped and not sit waiting to be shipped for months.

Right. When I look at the instructions there are a few minor mods.

The issue I believe for the Amp step is the DEF tank being in the way. I'm going with this once I'm able to get my 5500 in the driveway...

Curious, do you have a code book you can share? I just ordered a Laramie and happy with the decision, but definitely did consider the Rebel. Looks like a nice build, btw.
Sorry, no book, just the screenshots @zach@granger posted and an email my dealer sent me. I’m excited to be getting back into a 2500, and the Rebel looks like fun.
Seems like that’s the case, I just looked up the steps for the hemi and they have em. Will be ordering those when the truck arrives.The issue I believe for the Amp step is the DEF tank being in the way. I'm going with this once I'm able to get my 5500 in the driveway...

Yeah I cant wait. Never been an american car owner until I bought my rebel and I love these trucks. Hoping the 2500 lives up to the same as my 1500

Ordered a '23 Limited CC SRW 8' box this afternoon from the local dealer. A bit more than the price I received from Granger, but after the expense of picking it up figured-in, it was within $1500. Will be replacing my similar 2016 Laramie. My 3rd RAM 3500 from the same dealer, so I think they wanted to keep my business.
Only question I am still sort of pondering is the wheel-to-wheel black fixed steps I ordered vs. the retractable board the Limited comes with. No charge change, and I like having a step to access the front of the bed. Also, the fixed boards seem less likely to have problems down the road. Opinions welcomed!

I had the retractable running boards on my 2500. I liked the clearance they gave when retracted. The noise of them moving, was a little annoying but I adjusted to them over time. The motor on one failed at 22,000 miles. Which was replaced under warranty. I would say if you are going to have the truck in the dirt a lot, get the fixed option. The constant motion of back and forth if there is a lot of dirt in the gear area will cause you problems down the road. The other thing I did not like, was they are only connected to the truck in 2 places. So mine would flex a little when they were stood on. I wasn't a huge fan of that. I personally would go with a fixed running board in the future. Just my opinion. Congrats on the new truck!
