2022 Ram HD Builds and orders - Post and discuss your TRUCK order here! ** NEW USERS READ POST #1 **

Ok here’s my hypothesis for all us waiting patiently for builds that were ready to ship in Augustish time frame. It seems all the trucks in that time frame are delayed, but I keep seeing ones built later moving along to delivery. I believe they opened the large parking lot around the time our trucks were finished Drove them all they way to the end of it and said good by. Now as more and more units finish ready to ship they start to bury us in the back rows. Time goes on lots fills up. Now they start to ship but unfortunately our units are in the back and i guess theres no gate to open to do first in first out. So RAM starts shipping units in front of ours and as they go more pile up in those empty spots to be shipped out before ours Again. Ram emailed me today with a case number and bla bla bla, so us guys in limbo better get comfortable I see the 23s getting shipped before us. what do you guys think?
That’s possible but if one 23 gets delivered before mine I’ll raise hell. They better be offering some stupid incentives to us with 22s or I’ll take my money elsewhere. I understand that my truck will still sell but it’s about principal for me.

That is pretty accurate, they take last first due to amount of vehicles in storage lot they don't rotate vehicles

I agree, but all they need is another gate on the lot. First ones in first ones to ship. hey amigo open the end gate and lets ship them units that have been here 5,6 7 months. naa, to much work but I can ship the ones that ordered in August and September. Good idea the easy way is the best way. And here we are.
 
It means jack$hit. Mine and GrizzlyRam were both Hot Tagged by our dealer and Ram corp. Both sat for 7-10 days. VA transport is either that far behind or have some of the RAM shipping crew from Mexico working in GA.

FACTS!! Exactly 10 days for me. It was escalated by RAM and Hot Tagged by my dealer as soon as it was unloaded and check in by Virginia Transport in Lawrenceville. (and on day 4, Mike (Stellantis) called his "logistics guy" at the yard and asked for expedited service). All a bunch of BS! Its going to sit until your turn comes. Expect 10 days sitting at CSX there.
 
Anyone have any suggestions for extra incentives? Got the tread lightly and first responders discount.

yeah, tell them you know their sales were down 20% in October and will be worse in Nov. reduce the MSPR by 4% of they can try to sale the truck to someone else at 10% interest rate that is goign to keep going up by .75 through Dec. If they call your bluff, go ahead and buy it. They aint getting any cheaper through 2023 possibly 2024.

My dealer was so scared they were goign to have to find another buyer that they kept my trade value as agreed, and lowered the price off MSPR before I could ask. I literally had nothing to argue with them about. Then after the sale, they refunded me my deposit.
 
Has anyone had any updates from Cara at ram customer care , tried several times in the last week and no response
 
The dealer called me today and said my truck arrived! They got a shipment of 4 special order trucks but one arrived with $5k in damages. Luckily not mine. Ordered 2/11 and delivered 11/3.
Man that would suck having damage , thankfully yours survived.
 
From my dealer:

“I am not showing that it is on a train. However the manufacturer does have an alternative logistics process they are doing to help get all the trucks at the Saltillo Plant moved and this alternative system does not update in our
system.”
I still see KZLD, if it is shipped differently mine screen should reflect that.
