OOOF! 9 months and counting. Given its a 22 model, I assume its built and just stuck in a yard somewhere? I hope to God there aren't still unbuilt 2022 orders, but given how this whole order-build process has gone I would believe just about anything at this point.

I'm going to koons also and I think my railcar is in some intermediate station in IL or IN right now
Mine was stuck at "intermediate arrival" from 3/10 till the morning of 3/13 somewhere in IL (sounded something like "Hedgewich" but the voice for the NS intermodal check is really hard to understand lol). As of yesterday, I'm somewhere in Indiana (some other place I couldn't make out from the voice).

Yeah, its built and on a train or in a rail yard somewhere now. I was JBLD status for 96 days, thats what took so long on my build. Not sure why it was JBLD for so long but oh well, what can you do?

Like a brand new parent, still counting in weeks lol. She's overdue, keep them cigars ready, it'll all be over soon.

Once it makes it to the dealer it will be on hold there until they can do the 2 recalls it has. Atleast i will be able to go visit it. :)

The voice on the phone says the truck is in Gibson Indiana as of 3/11 but @brv10 said I'm actually in Bayview Baltimore. Koons is only an hourish away on a car carrier. I haven't heard from Koons since my order went into D status. I emailed them this morning asking about the procedure once it finally gets to them. Haven't heard anything yet but maybe they are super busy...

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 :cool:

I feel like the facts should be in green and the myths should be in red lol

I got lucky with my 3500 last year. Ordered end of Feb, delivered middle of June. Thinking about ordering another 3500 or 2500. I want a Longhorn, but I also want the mint green. Not sure which to go for, or if MD or Granger can drop ship it to AEV for the Prospector package. The mint green would save me money, but I do like the leather.

I saw today that the Aisin snap ring recall has been extended to MY23 3500, 4500, and 5500 that were built on or before 12/1/2022. Probably old news, but in case someone missed it:

Ordered 11/1, finally built!!! Now the next wait begins.

A bit puzzled by the payload numbers from the towing capacity guide however. Based on my VIN, (3C63R3RL2PG525964), it's showing 24,932# max tow, which is fine, but 3622# for max payload. My similarly equipped 2016 has a payload of 4055#. Hard to imagine the 2023 is 433# heavier than my 2016, as the only real difference is the air-suspension. Perhaps the two are/were calculated differently however, as I can't recall exactly where I came up with the 4055# number for my 2016.

Anyone else with a 3500 SRW long-bed able to compare your payload capacity?

What trim level? I have a 2022 3500 crew cab SRW short bed and have just under 3800lbs payload so the number you outline sounds about right.

Anything from Koons? Would be awesome if it was in Bayview, mine said the same about Gibson Indiana until last night, now its somewhere else in Indiana but I can't understand where.
