Kinda stuck with me fo a bit and while having dinner that night ..talking about the Mega Ram order.. Just kinda put Mega and Beast together.. Talked to my friends at Ikonic Badges and had them whip out some hood callouts. Got the color changing LED strip with it. Heres a shot with a flashlight behind it.

So it should be delivered or about to. If it was, and pics yet?
 
When talking to RamChat one day I suggested that they use barcodes or similar to do tracking like FedEx or UPS, and assign a name to each station (maybe their status code). Then as your paperwork moves down the line, the station scans it and you get an e-mail notification. Guessing the suggestion went nowhere though.
 
Mine is at 11 weeks and 2 days. Just updated to KZ T (second rail departure) yesterday. Prior to that the ETA was 3/11 - 3/25. Per call with RamChat last night and dealer reply today, it has changed slightly to 3/8 - 3/25.
 
Just got this from Ram Chat Live....

I am showing that your vehicle is in the shipping stage however a Dealer ETA has not been provided. It will remain in this stage until delivered to the Dealer. You can check back with us in a week or so and we should have an ETA to the Dealer.
 
Ask your dealer tomorrow to check the current status code:

KZ - released by plant and invoiced. The truck is ready to be shipped
KZ L – released but not shipped
KZ M – first rail departure

Was there this morning picking up my son's Jeep and asked... He said it is in Jacksonville Fl waiting for a ride south to the Tampa yard
 
I ordered last part of November 2021 and found out the birthday was Feb 10 2022. Guess I will start this build thread with a window sticker . Truck will be delivered the last week of Feb or 1st week March. Pics to come

Newbie question here as I’ve never ordered a truck. I received my build sheet on 3/2 and window sticker on 3/3 via crypto stickers. Does this mean my truck is built?

Yes. Your truck is built (equipment listing) and released by the factory (window sticker).

Well that's totally amazing. I ordered it on Jan 10.... A shame it's the one that I am bailing out on.
I placed a new order on Jan 28. If it follows the same cadence, it should get build towards the end of this month. Fingers crossed.

I wish you the best...but no offense...I'd rather see those guys who've been waiting for months and months and months to get their first ones built before you get a 2nd one. ;)
 
So.. From November 29 2021 order date to Feb 10 2022 birthday to today April 13 2022..I head to the dealership to take possession of the new truck. I wanted pics of the truck on the transport but knew that wasn't going to happen.. Salesman said he was tied up but took a few UN flattering pics.. Real dirty after the trip from, Mexico to Brunswick to Tampa to Pinellas Park Fl.. First things first.. Going to install the S@B 75-5132 air intake and drive around a bit. Tomorrow I will tint the front windows to match and remove the 5th wheel and spare tire. And since my 40x60 shop is not finished ..going to a buds place down the street and we will start on the Carli lift .. Pics will be shot of this build and posted here..

So starting with the cold air .. Maybe does or doesn't add anything to performance but adds to the cool factor. .like all jeeps have to have a winch and a spring loaded wavy hand in the windshield ..oh .. and a bag full of little plastic ducks to put on other Jeeps..
Took maybe all of about 20 min to install. Easy peazy.. Well built unit
S&B 75-5132 is this kit
