I'm dying to compare test drive the 3.0 RAM to the 3.0 Silverado. I'm already seeing the Silverado "in transit" on dealer sites, meaning they are rolling to dealerships right now. But, I can't seem to find any news on the RAM diesels yet. Anyone heard any news on availability yet?

The three closest dealers to me all said they would not stock them-Order only. While it is not even an option on the public facing build site, it is available through your dealers build portal. Thought about it, did the break even on engine price vs. fuel savings and went with the 5.7-worked best for me but if you're going to keep it a long time or do a lot of miles it can work in the long run from a dollar savings standpoint. Sounds like a lot of positive reviews on the diesel so far though!

Ordered mine 10/3
as of 11/14 it was still in D

What does "still in D" mean?

Have you found any reviews of the diesel that were done with the final, EPA-approved, tuning? I haven't seen any. Until then, I think any review of the way the engine runs is a complete waste of bits/bytes/print.

My truck is built and has been in KZ for 2 days. Just waiting for it to make the long (9 miles) trip to my dealer.
