Considering how slow rail has been the last week or so, best of luck. I've been KZ for a week and still not on the train.

I was just told KZ status and asked for any modifiers on it. They ended up telling me it was in KZ M status (first rail departure). I hope that means it will be here soon! Anybody know how long the trains take to get to the Nashville, TN area? I think my truck is being trucked from that point.

Ordered my Leramie Mega Cab on 04-24. Currently in KZ status. Last location was Kansas City on May 29th. Next stop is the Sterling Heights, MI assembly plant from which it will be trucked to my local dealer.

Used my 2013 Cummins as a trade-in and the withdrawal symptoms are getting worse by the day.

Found out from the dealer today that my vehicle is still sitting in a rail yard south of the border waiting to be shipped. So it went KZ last week, but it still hasn't found a worthy train yet.

Yes. Actually have a 6.0 fully built F-350 that is currently under the knife getting an upgraded transmission installed, and having traded in my '13 Cummins, I am out of diesels, hence the withdrawals.

In all honestly, I was running a Raceme Ultra 150hp tune on the 2500 and in comparison to the F350, it was not quite as fun to drive. The throttle response was an issue, as well as the turbo lag. Mind you, the F350 is a Crew Cab Lariat on a SCT performance tune with stock turbo but the spool on the turbo and all around responsiveness was much better. Top end wise the Cummins was the stronger truck but again, in terms of fun factor (quickness, exhaust sound, etc.) the Ford won out.

Hoping for better things out of the new and improved 2019 Ram.

Howdy,
Warrenton, VA
The dealer has my truck and a power wagon, and 2 other trucks for the sales lot. So hopefully they get on a truck and get over to the dealership shortly.

The cummins is by far stronger in loaded situations. Totally agree the powerstroke and the Duramax are a lot of fun unloaded. Pulling though, different story, especially in the high end of the weight capacity. my 13 ram has 1 150 tune on raceme ultra. have an aftermarket turbo aswell (BD screamer). and its mid to high end is wild now. will prob be doing first set of compounds on this new 19. always wanted to do that!

6/7/19 KZ!

This is going faster than I expected! It looks like it takes a while to actually get to my area by rail, but I bet I can get it by 4th of July at this rate!
You get your Truck Yet?
