Could be wrong but the only way it could go backwards now, is if it’s damaged.

Poor guy doesn’t shop at the right dealership.

That video is sponsored by a different dealership, he pretty much has to say what that one specific dealer is (or isn't) offering. And since that dealer is sponsoring that video, I wouldn't be shocked if TFL gets different deals than the rest of the public that shops at that dealer. I can't blame them, its part of their pay check/sponsor structure, but customers have to consider the source of the information someone is giving them. And shop around on their own/do their own research/trust but verify/etc.

the dealership showed the truck in paint two weeks ago, i checked today it said at vender will keep you posted and not bragging
just letting people know that there might hope for their rho

Anthony i was speaking to a dealer today about Stelantis probelms and it mainly surrounds carbon credits and their inability to offset what the government has asked of them ie why they switched from the V8 to V6 in order to bring this down without paying additional massive fines which they are already in the hole on. This is also why lots and dealerships have diesels available as they are not included in the calculation. This tells me no one is seeing any trucks for quite some time with their current issues.

Please start another thread for this conspiracy theory. Its like they googled Stellantis and put the results in a blender. And they charged you too much for your truck.

You should be good to go. I just think all the trucks are going to be sent to storage until they hit a certain number. But I have been sitting in D status since May 10 so you're still a lot better than me. I have a super similar build. Good luck with the truck.

I fully believe that once the press embargo is lifted (in just a few days, per TFL), trucks will start shipping to dealers.

Remember…these press releases are part of a marketing strategy. Makes no sense to lift the embargo if customers can’t go to their local dealer to see these trucks.

Counterpoint- you're not marketing to the people from whom you already have cash in hand to buy one of these trucks.

Also all of the orders are sold orders so it's gonna be a LONG time before anyone is going to look at one in a dealer lot

Dealers know very well how to game the "sold" order system, just like they did with the TRX. They will appear on lots with ADM. Even non Ram dealers were ordering multiple TRXs from the discount dealers so they could sell them on their lots (anyone remember VikTRX?)

One guy (suspected Texas non Ram dealer) ordered 13 TRX. No mileage TRXs were showing up in San Antonio and Houston. They were sold as "used." The hot market and the dealer discount gave the dealerships a nice flip. Ram built and delivered them all. I imagine same thing is going to happen with the RHO.

I can't wait for all of you guys to troll the ADM posts on FB when the time comes.

I don't know what this is so I could very well be wrong with my assumptions.

Hey have "cousins" "brothers" and sisters that order the trucks. When the truck arrives, the dealer just sells it.

The TRX, like the RHO, was sold-order-only so dealers must order them with customer name/address and signed buyers order, etc etc.
However, some dealers may have, or might be, ordering a few TRX's for their monkey's uncle and neighbor's cat, and then say "whoops" that customer couldn't get financed, I guess we'll have to sell it on the lot. Gee we better price it over MSRP since we're incurring all this floorplan cost! Do this too many times, and Stellantis starts auditing, and can impact your ability to earn incentive $, allocations, or even just curbing the # of sold orders you can place.

Especially savage when my April order sits unscheduled. Ram will not be left out either.
