I don't see anything wrong with those blue crayon areas

I don't either but I was told by the body Shop that those areas were where it got tweaked and out of spec . It was suppose to be repaired before it was shipped. Dealer Body Shop also stated Blue Crayon is what the final Inspectors use. She also mentioned those marks put on by inspector were to be removed after repairs were made.
 
Trust me, I'm the last person you got to tell that 2. I will have me 14 pages of build sheets going over all standard an option items for quality ,workmanship, functionality, an flaws. Sales people hate me. They just walk away an come back 2 hrs later. I used to inspect heavy equipment, i can see things that aren't there to the lay person. Also got my wife as the back up. She's the kind of gal that when we go in for service, she takes lip stick to Tires for a rotation check an puts the oil dipstick in so words are facing wind shield not head lights. We got this. Anytime in our 25 yr marriage that we have bought something of $$$$$$ significance, all the sales people have quit either during the sale or after .
 
I don't think blue crayon means something that need to be fixed. I think they just mark everything they checked. Otherwise my current truck would have been a reject! And it's actually been my most reliable vehicle ever.
 
Hahaha. All I can say is, if there's crayon marks on my 83k+ truck, Im going to hyperventilate because
#1: theres a bunch of flaws with the truck ORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
#2: there's frickin crayon all over my truck, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I had the blue "crayon" as well. (It shows really well on a white truck.) My stealership told me that the marks are to prove that alignment/stress points were actually inspected. To bad the P-POOR vehicle prep team didn't bother to remove them!

I found one blue mark on the front passenger side edge of the bed - behind the cab.

Yet the damn cab/bed alignment is a good 1" off (cab left) and looks like ass.

Mind's eye image of Rich wandering around the dealer lot with his creeper and a headlamp looking for his truck.

P.S. I'm, partial to Petzl just because i have a few for hunting use.
 
Well all I hope I'm not jinxing myself here an I'm afraid to even tell you all an say it out loud BUTTTTTTTT , apparently showing my @$$ yesterday or on here with ram care ( we will probably never know) someone or something changed my build order. HMMMMMMMMMMM.????????? After telling my dealer I'm done an over it an calling out ram care , mysteriously my towing an payload link finally filled in the info from my vin and it hasn't for the last 3 wks. Also, mysteriously, my dealership said they contacted someone at fca and said it should be going out early next wk. HMMMMMMMMMM?????? I will believe it when I see it. You know no one will ever admit what the problem was but when i told my sales man that I'm over it an somebody with fca is covering something up, mysteriously progress has been made an it's no longer on the back burner. It's a shame it had to come to that but will see what happens next wk. I'm cautiously optimistic that progress was made, well see next wk

They probably had enough of your whining!!!!!!
 
2020 3500 HO Longhorn SRW 4x4 CC LB:
Ordered 3-5; VIN 3-9; Build Sheets 3-19; Window Sticker 3-27. I guess someone must still be working at the Mexico plant. I’m surprised to see my window sticker today. I assume it’ll be shipped soon.
By the way my VIN is 191xxx if that helps anyone.

Amazing considering many of us ordered way before you and still don't have window stickers.
 
Wow 1 month that's insane, someone posted earlier that they ordered in November an it just arrived at dealership the other day wich is closed so he can't get it. Dam the bad luck. An as far as me wearing them down with my whining, yer dam right, that's part of the schtick, what ever it takes to get the ball rolling. So are you trying to politely tel me to quit whining on the forum or you'll block me :p :cool: :):D
 
I know I was surprised by the 3 weeks from order date to window sticker which showed the build date as 3-24. I must have hit the assembly line just right for my model and options. I was going to order the rear bed step but as everyone knows it wasn’t available so glad I removed the option especially after reading the issues it’s caused some of you! Now I hope it arrives undamaged.
