Today reached out to Anthony to see what my “scheduled” date was — and the computer said build NLT 16 march and 3 or so weeks for shipping to mark ram.
 
I didn't know that they could see the scheduled build date. That should mean that mine will be coming up any day. Order was accepted on Feb 1st. Similar truck to yours.
 
2026 Rebel 2500, ordered Feb 19th, in production Feb 26. We’ll see how long it sits waiting for a ship. It went right from “Ordered” to “In Production”, “Scheduled” still says “TBD”. Hopefully that isn’t just a glitch!

I think where you ordered from plays a huge part in the shipping wait times. My times are below. Currently still sitting at the Port of Altamira waiting for a boat since Feb 6th. I was told this stage takes normally 2 months. I live in NJ but purchased from dealer south of Baltimore. Good luck!
 
I’m in upstate NY, purchased from my local dealer. I’m sure I could have saved some $ ordering from one of the huge dealers, but they offered a fair price and have been awesome regarding my current Ram and I’m happy to keep the business local and help keep them in business. I suspect we’ll be on the same ship north (IF I’m lucky…). I hope yours appears far before May 2nd!
 
Just ordered yesterday through Mark Dodge thanks to the recommendations on this forum. 11% off MSRP, my local dealer I've gotten my last 6 vehicles from look at the deal and told me he wished me luck. 2500 Limited 4x4 crew cab 6'4" bed, Hemi, ceramic gray night edition. Pretty much every option available w/ the gasser: Clearance lamps, aux switches, onboard power, sunroof, 4.10 gears, tow-mode wired camera, VSIM, off-road package, ram box delete. Never really wanted a truck per se, but the inevitable upgrade to our next larger travel trailer makes this a necessity. I was told 2 - 4 months - I really, really hope it's more in line with 3 months, as my current lease has to go back 6/1. Now for the waiting game!
For anyone curious on current timelines - and I'm sure it varies quite a bit based on who knows what, but my updates are as follows:
Ordered 2/16
Scheduled 2/17
In Production 2/24
Built 2/26
Shipped 2/26
ETA to dealer will be before end of March, I won't be able to complete the purchase until mid-April. Way faster than anticipated!

That is crazy fast. Congrats!

I received a cash offer from Ram right after placing the order in December. Missed by a few days. It expires 3/17 and thought I had plenty of time. No chance as truck is still sitting in Port of Altamira, MX for about a month.
 
Originally ordered a 2500 Laramie Night Edition on 1/5. 1/28 the dealer called and said it was built but the factory forgot the spray in bedliner. I decided to reorder on 1/30. In production 2/15, built and "shipped" 2/17. Dealer says status is KZLD, so it might be a bit. Hopefully it just randomly shows up.
 
Updated today to 3/12 ETA. Wahoo. Dealer keeps saying we won't see this for 2 months which puts this out to first week of May. Let's see who is right.
 
Mine has been showing “in Production" for the past week (since 2/26). The dealer emailed me Friday to say it was built. Here's hoping it is actually done and not waiting for some random part, and gets loaded on to a ship soon (I'm surprised they don't use trains, but I suppose they aren't concerned with expediency.
