Power Wagon delays

Got a update from Ram chat. Truck is built and at the accessory shop. I'm assuming for the bed liner.
Dealership texted me today as well saying it may be here next Thursday? Maybe he means shipped?

My 75th order on Feb 3rd is supposedly on its way north to Alberta. Dealer said it should be in the last week of May, or first week of June. Sticker date of build says May 7.

What was your build ?
 
My 75th in granite crystal two tone with tow group, ramboxes, and bed group shipped last Monday. Expected dealer arrival June 14th at the latest

I'll try and get some photos today.

I didn't get any at the dealership, like some kind of dope, and was too interested in covering the 13 hour drive home to make any photo specific pit stops. Plus, I kinda suck at photography.

I will update the tread later.

Truck is number 14xx IIRC.
 
I'd likely do the same. My drive looks like it will be 17hrs. Interesting on 14xx. I wonder what the total number of the 75th's will be in the end? Seems like we are in need of a post your 75th # if there isn't one of those already floating around.
 
There is a 75th PW thread over in the PW forum.

My mono tone 75th should be shipping soon. Hopefully by the end of the week. Fingers crossed.

My driveway slopes down to the road where I'm standing, and the bed is right at the edge of the garage, creating a bit of an optical illusion. Its a big ass truck, but thats an 8' door, so it fits just fine. With the 5th gen 4Runner next to it no less
 
Quick Update. The truck is scheduled to be delivered to the dealer next week, I hopefully pick it up by Friday. Ordered it on April 6th.
 
Dealer got back to me .
Still in bx.
 
I wonder if the variable might be the dealer? My understanding is the dealer must have an available allotment and sufficient financing for the factory order. The dealer is invoiced when the truck is built, before it ships. There are stories where the dealer “ordered” the truck, only to have the order wait until they had allotment or when the vehicle finished, shipping was delayed because the dealer did not have sufficient credit for the invoice. Just guessing here but why else would some trucks move through production and others are not?

Very interesting theory. I’ve been thinking about that as well.

One thing is for certain as per Fleet Schedule, the 2022 HD builds starts up July 26, 2021 and 2022 Fleet Orders are accepted as of June 14, 2021 as per URL...

Worst case scenario as our order and according to the dealer, “status is BX and order is good for scheduling”, it gets built just before date of “retooling”.

If not, I guess my PW-75 isn’t going to be a 75 Anniversary edition any more

Hope RAM Care, cares ... for the orders left in the rafters and orders .

I heard a rumour that my build is still in bx status.

Looks like most of the orders up here in the North are in some sort of holding pattern.

Perhaps when our Builds finally land and if they land, we too can slap on an extra premium and sell it back to where we bought from.

Can’t believe some places are slapping an extra premium on certain models!!

My wish for RAM?

If there is any RAM Care….Share some care for us Canucks as opposed to putting us into an INFINITE LOOP of contacting FCA Customer Service in Canada who in turn, passes us back to the dealer.

BUT, do something and making our Builds a REALITY.

Thankyou RAM in advance!!

Much prefer to park my 5th RAM (PW-75) on my driveway as opposed to a non RAM.
