Beautiful vehicles! Plum Crazy is my favorite color that they ever offered on the Challenger. I had a GoMango Hellcat and then this Octane Red one, but I always wanted that Plum Crazy.

Thanks! We were only about a week apart...seems like the factory blew out a bunch of Laramie Night Editions in short order.

It was a bittersweet day, but I brought my new 2500 home. I'm really going to miss the Hellcat, but I already love this truck. Thanks again to all of the helpful people on here! And if you're shopping around Western New York (Buffalo area), check out Fredonia Dodge. They are stand-up people and...

Just got the text from my salesman that my truck was delivered this afternoon, so it's KZX for me! I'll post up some pictures when I take delivery later in the week. Thank you to those who moderate this thread and those behind the scenes for all of the time you put in and the info that you...

Same. I made an appointment with my ceramic guy for undercoating and ceramic coating, and he wanted me to request that the dealer not wash the vehicle prior to delivery. Makes more work for him if they hammer it with the brushes before he gets his hands on it.

Fair point. Things like that happen more often than many of us realize. It would be interesting to see what percentage of units are damaged between the factory and delivery. There is a lot of potential between the trains, trucks, and even just accidents on the dealer lot or shop mishaps. Just...

Great news. And yes, damage happens frequently. I've seen some interesting damage during the years that I hauled cars, from minor scratches to completely totalled units from bridge hits, etc. It is but there may be people on here who are going above and beyond and giving people information in...

My railcar made it to the NS yard in Buffalo, NY this morning. Now comes the wait for it to hit the ground and for the carrier to punt it the last 50 or so miles to the dealer. It seems that NS was moving the unit approximately 300-350 miles/day once they got the handoff from BNSF.

I live in Buffalo. Ordered my truck 12/15 from Fredonia Dodge. Had a window sticker on 1/31 and it was on the rail last week. Was transferred from BNSF to NS somewhere along the way for the final push towards Buffalo. When I tracked it via NS this morning, the train had just departed Kansas. I'm...

Thank you for the reply! That is good to hear because those sit exactly where I would want them to. I usually see the +18 offset recommended on the 9" width wheels, but the wheels I want are 0 offset as well.

Looking good! The more I see of the Patriot Blue, the more I like it. I apologize if it's already been stated elsewhere; but what are the wheel and tire specs on those trucks?

Most likely a driver/truck shortage. Used to haul cars out of that railhead on backhaul. Quite a few of the guys that I used to work with quit car haul and went on to other niches within the trucking industry after the 'rona shutdowns led to them being laid off for extended periods of time. Hard...

I'm not 100% on this, but I believe that Ram handles the logistics on that. I used to haul cars and we had contracts for delivery of certain vehicles to certain areas for the different manufacturers.

Laramie Night Edition with Cummins. Kept my build light on tech options to try to minimize delays, so 8.4 Nav radio and no extra cameras or anything, and no BSM as it wasn't available on the Laramie at the time of my order. Looking at the sheet, they seem to have been pushing through quite a few...

Just spoke to Ram Chat, my 12/15 order is supposedly in transit with a delivery ETA of 2/24 -3/8. Sure hope it's coming on the rail through Lordstown, OH or Cheektowaga, NY and not on a boat to Curtis Bay, MD.
