Other than the Ram tracking website, where it says shipped already, is there another way to get to the detailed tracking codes or is that only through the dealer?

I just received an email from my dealer, Sept 6 arrival in Vancouver (about an hour away). Window sticker showed up August 1 or thereabouts, ship date was August 11. 2026 Bighorn 6.7
Thank you for that ! You have given me the gift of hope ! I’ve been truckless since December 2024

It's still in the port?... A month later? I've been waiting 3 weeks for just the final inspection to be completed.
Ram, if you're reading any of this... GET WITH THE PROGRAM!
Talked to the dealer, they do believe the delivery time frame to be accurate for my delivery. Maybe it's faster cause I ordered a Hemi?
Also on the 100,000/10 year warranty program it applies to retail purchase or sold orders completed prior to 9/2/25.

Pretty fast! I just ordered a 2500 Hemi today and was told to expect mid-late Nov most likely. Mark Dodge / Anthony's quote was much better than anything local, and within a couple hundred of Granger. The extra 10 hr drive from IA + gas/hotel vs Louisiana pick up made it an easy choice. I think the order whole process took 20 minutes. I've bought a few cars out of state and this one was the easiest by far.

Welcome to the forum. I hope you have better luck than myself. I ordered a 3500 Hemi back in April so it should have been a 2025, then it got pushed into the 2026 model year. Supposedly it was final built on July 24th (3 months later). So far its been waiting for a "final inspection" for 3 weeks. Haven't heard a word about it getting on a train. Other guys have had their trucks sitting in Ports/rail yards for 3+ weeks just waiting for a transport truck to deliver to the dealers. Good luck to you.
Can you share any other build details about what you ordered?
Thanks for the welcome. Does seem like Ram has a mess on their hands with the order fulfillment process. At least you'll get the longer powertrain warranty.
Order is for a gas 2500 Laramie, forged blue paint and "sea salt"/ brown interior. Optioned with Laramie 1+ pack, 4.10s and aux switches. I was surprised 4.10s pick up an add'l ~2k of tow capacity over the 3.73s in the 3/4 tons. 17k is more than I'll need, but nice to have.
I'm thinking I'll be waiting a while if they do the interiors in runs, as the sea salt/brown seems to be a low volume option. Probably not the not the interior direction I'd go for a working truck, but hoping it'll be fine for a semi-daily driver and tow pig for my Jeep or whatever other clunkers end up in my driveway.
2026 Longhorn LWB Crew & Cummings with pretty much all options. Has Dual Alt w/ pwr supply. Omitted the fifth wheel option was about it. All that and still not what I really wanted for options. Spend that kind of money and everything you want option wise is in current production. But your model is available with this,that or the other thing. One interior color choice( although it’s a great interior). No two tone paint exterior, no sport hood and really can’t delete stuff you won’t use or need. If it wasn’t for the 8 speed transmission I would be keeping my mint 2015 Longhorn of pretty much the same build. It only has 55k on it.

I'm surprised the Inverter was available. When I originally ordered, I checked that box but they said that was why it was delayed. Then it got removed all together. It was on the build website for about a week back April I think, then they took it down. Hopefully for your sake they've sorted out the issue.
My dealer is Mark Dodge also, was originally told 8-12 weeks, so I am a bit surprised as well at the speedy arrival. MD experience has been great so far, even if I ship it all the way to California, it's still cheaper than anything around here.
Sorry for the folks that have been waiting so long.
Funny as I saw the same going on. When I ordered at my dealer the converter was available. But when it was built on the single page build sheet showed it … but not dual alternators. ( that’s hidden in that item in a line below) on a detailed two page build sheet. So it does show every option I could order. Just not everything I wanted. ( sport hood, two tone or blacked out.)

Send some pics over now.
I ordered a 2026 3500 Longhorn CC SB 4x4 with the Cummins in Forged Blue on July 5th. I also got the air suspension based on the majority of comments on this forum (thank you!) and dual alternators. The 2.4 kW power supply was not available (why can’t you order this and wait a few days until it’s ready?). Things moved super fast initially: 7/7 status C, 7/8 status D, 7/10 VIN issued, 7/17 status D1, 7/26 status JS with an estimated ship date of 8/8, 7/28 status KZ LD with an ETA of 8/4-8/15, 8/4 at Oklahoma City BN still with an ETA of 8/4-8/15. Everything was going great, but now it hasn’t moved and the ETA has changed to TBD! My dealer has checked several times and hasn’t learned anything else. I’m starting to worry that something is going on based on some of the horror stories I’ve read here.
Congratulations and Enjoy your new truck!
