JANUARY order updates!

This is from the 12th around 9PM. Is it just waiting to get on a rail car?

Makes sense. Mines been in inspection for 30 days now. Was supposed to ship 2/20. Move back to 3/20 then shipped to storage. But, no window sticker, so they are likely having to hold these for something.

I’ve had a window sticker for weeks and it’s just sitting.

I spoke with my dealer this morning and he was on a call with some higher ups at the factory. He is saying decals are causing delays right now and they are even considering sending the graphics with the truck for dealers to install just to get them out of there. That and bedliners arnt helping…. On average trucks sit in “I” inspection for 4-6 weeks

Is the delay in building or shipping the truck? I ask because I have the bedliner, but no decals, and my tracker says it's been built. Ship date is still TBD. Just wondering if I could experience a delay in shipping due to the bedliner.

If this is true when I get mine soon I'm going to really check my overpriced decals to make sure they are straight lol. If the dealer is doing it I'm sure it will be okay but one more thing to double check before driving it away

To be fair, they probably send them with a template of some sort...to line up correctly on the body. When I got the new Colorado ZR2, the factory sent the blackout badge and decal package with the truck for the dealership to install. Everything was perfectly straight.

Somebody measure that hood graphic so I can cut my own

Yeah same here. No decals but bedliner. My tracker doesn’t show built but dealer said it’s been built and in inspections for 4 weeks now.

got my weekly update from my dealer today. they said that my truck is "in the shipping process, currently at the rail yard" but didn't have an ETA! tracker updated yesterday to "built" not not yet shipped and no ETA or window sticker.

sounds like mine got hung up at body vendor for a bit, i got the bed utility group but no graphics.

Mine has been in the same spot in the parking lot for a week now.

was it put on a rail car and just dropped off there?

No, it was taken there on a truck from the factory. It will have to go back to the factory and then be put on the train. Shipping must be backed up since my truck is built but not shipped .

That is so annoying. Mine is currently built just sitting by the rail car. Have no idea why they can’t just put it on a truck to Illinois.

 

[Mikey Swift]

I don't think I've seen a more disorganized Mickey Mouse shipping operation in my life. In the time it takes them to truck these things hours away to storage lots and back, just to be put on a rail car the same direction...they could have delivered a bunch. It's unreal.

 

[SATX]

Yeah same here. No decals but bedliner. My tracker doesn’t show built but dealer said it’s been built and in inspections for 4 weeks now.

Same build. Same production week. Same time in inspection.

Mine is sitting an hour away from me. Just let me go pick it up and take it to the dealer myself

Yeah - odd. The pundits say no one is buying Ram trucks - but if shipping is a mess, I'm not sure what is going on. Mine is either in a "mixing yard" of under "long delay" status depending on who you ask. My dealer said it usually had something to do with a driver strike or some issue with a shipping company. Oh well. Is what it is.

 

[Toocool2714]

Mine has been in the same spot in the parking lot for a week now.

Ditto, smh

Or maybe the Ram app is wrong, because switching to satellite view, that clearly isn’t my RED RHO

Picked up the RHO this afternoon and couldn’t be happier. Had to take off the garage door handle to clear the shark fin but shoe horned her right in!
