Rolling north!

3500 Limited Crew Cab, 4x4, SRW w/6'4" box

4/08 - Ordered
4/16 - Status BE - Issue: Towing Technology Group merged into Limited Level 1 Equip Group
4/23 - Status C
4/24 - Status D - VIN# Assigned and Firm Schedule
5/08 - Status D1 - Scheduled to be built. No idea when
5/20 - Status F - In the paint shop
5/23 - Status KZ - awaiting rail car loading

UPDATE
5/24 - Left Saltillo rail yard on Union Pacific

At this point, I have no idea which line it is on and what yards it will pass through on it’s way to St. Louis. Rubicon VLS just shows the origin (Saltillo, MX) and destination (Centreville, IL) of the route.


That was loaded on a train FAST!!!!

You’ve had to wait a terribly long time. I can only imagine your excitement.
You bet. But I expected it would take a long time to get out here. Too bad for my boys who are just as excited as I am as they left with mom for a 2 week trip. At least I can pick them up from the airport in our new toy.

Wow, that is quick. I ordered on Feb 2nd and the build date is March 12. Delivery is expected about the end of March. Did you by chance order a gas engine?
Ordered 4/30 and hope it ships out next week. Sitting in KZ-L status.

I’m running out of the patience I never had playing the waiting game. My truck has been built and sitting there staged for delivery for 1.5 weeks.....
I just can’t get the damn thing out of Mexico........
Get it yet?

Yours is even worse than mine. I had an order date of 2/2, a build date of 3/12, and so far it has not shipped. It was released for shipping on 3/15 but has not moved. The chat line told me D1 status can be as long as 30 days and KZ status, released for shipping, can be as long as 14 days. I am on day 13 now.
You get truck yet??

Just now?? Crap. Mine has been in KZ L Waiting to ship.

Here's my history according to RAM chat, usually checked in the morning MST:

5/16 (Eileen): D1
5/20 (Ashlea): F
5/21 (Randy): JB
5/21: Build Sheet Available
5/22 (Alexander): KZ
5/23: Sticker Available

I was never able to get a KZ sub-code from Ram chat, but from what I can glean from the sticker, the truck was finished and stored on 5/21. It sat at the plant until 5/28 when they loaded it on the train.

You had that a couple days after order though right? I wouldnt put much stock in that (I know, obvious now). I suspect this week you'll go D1 and if mine ships on 4/8, yours will be right there or shortly behind.



Have you contacted the dealer? If mine is in your shoes, my dealer will be hearing from me weekly. On the potentially positive side, I've heard that chat won't give you anything beyond KZ, hopefully they are giving you bum info and it's actually on a train somewhere by now.

I'm beginning to think the chat is quite useless really.
My chat session told me KZ-L two days ago.

got sticker this week so hopefully mine will ship by Tuesday or Wednesday. You would think they’d want to get SOLD units out the door and into their numbers.

Was told my order could be anywhere from 6 to 12-weeks. Pretty sure there was no science to the estimate provided other than make it longer than normal so this customer doesn't bug me for tracking info. I'll be pleased with 8-weeks.
Im seeing 6-8 weeks tops. Mine is on week 5 and ready to ship and I added a bunch of extras.
