My 3500 Longhorn Megacab SRW 6.7/68RFE just got to the dealers lot in Rapid City, SD yesterday. Here's my build times. 6 weeks order to delivery which seems to be incredibly fast. Now just need to get time to drive up and get it later this week.

Just got the update that my truck is in the rail yard in Draper, UT! It got there last week on Thursday. As soon as there's room on a truck it will make the 5 hour drive to my dealer! Fingers crossed for this week!!!

Stewy, up thru KZ status was always a chat to the Ram support line. I had a script in a Word doc that that included everything they always ask. VIN, VON, Name, Address, etc. that I would paste into the chat. They seemed happy and information came back pretty quickly. I always asked for the 2 digit status code. They would typically came back with a descriptive answer but I wanted the code. Usually chatted once a week, Fridays.

After KZ the dealer can look up the information. After KZ I asked the dealer for a screen shot from the Rubicon VLS system they have. I asked each Friday. So only asked two times while in transit. Mexico to Denver yard then truck to Rapid City.

Jakalafus, following other hear it sounds like the DRW's are taking much longer. :(

Can’t wait!!!!!
Get ready to wait haha! It will be worth it but it is AGONIZING!! This is the first vehicle I have special ordered and it has been torture. I'm almost 8 weeks in and I am on the faster side of the times we have been seeing on here. I hope you didn't order a dually!

I ordered 4/15 and still no build sheet. Was told yesterday it was in the queue awaiting build, but no date for that yet. The only savings grace is I can drive my jeep all over the mountains one more time before the end of June when I am hoping for delivery. Of course I need to sell it so I can't do as much as I used to either.

I'm afraid so.

I'm really happy how quickly your has moved along. It's amazing to think how much difference ordering one week later than you has made in my case.

Well my 2500 Delmonico Red Power Wagon has been delivered to the dealer (ordered 3.26.19), Windows tinted and waiting on me as of 5.16.19
I'm happier than Col. Sanders dancing with Mrs. Butterworth.
Now they are waiting on me to get my $$...I haven't put my order in yet to sell some Stock (Price is down a bit ), I'll get it by next weekend.

Yeah I ordered my truck which is basically the same as yours a week and a half before you and its sitting in Utah on the way to Idaho... Sorry yours is taking so long man. This whole process is painful, and feel for you
