I would expect the DS would fall into the same category as the vans and cars in that hierarchy as well. I wasn't up to date on the DS options, so I just went and built one on RamTrucks. Full tech doesnt appear to be an option for those anyway so likely not a huge demand on the chips there like all the Advanced Tech trucks are.
RamTrucks is still on 2021 models. Don’t make no sense when 19,393 2022’s have been built?

I have an almost fully loaded Limited on order and still in D status as of last Friday, so not sure how much I believe that. My order went in on 6/26, and higher VINs are being built.

Same here. $72k+ Limited Longhorn ordered at the end of June and no movement whatsoever. And I'm in DFW. Not like there aren't any trucks on trains coming this way...

My build isn't that far off from yours. Diesel vs Hemi. I just swapped Night for off-road and got the 10th anniversary edition package also. Ordered around the same time also and still waiting...

I'm reaching hard on this one but I wonder if there's a discrepancy between people who put down a cash deposit (and then even moreso for people who were told their deposit was "nonrefundable" and/or signed something, like me), and people who didn't.

In other words, there's more potential liability for a dealer if they took your money and/or signed a deal and it takes 10 months to get you your truck. So maybe dealers are pressuring Ram to get those trucks out, in whatever way they might be able do that?

Could easily be wrong, but this is what we do here right? Shoot theories out like clay pigeons.

Anyone know how far off the estimated ship dates are? I’m in D1 status w an estimated ship date of Friday 10/8. Wondering if these are days or weeks off?

Can really only speak for myself but I was given an estimated ship date of 10/3 about a week and a half ago and my truck started production today.

I've seen at least a couple other people here get about as close, so as long as your ship date doesn't change, it seems decently solid.

Maybe we could find out why they are building things the way they are?

I have a long Horn on order to; order date 7/14. Did the ASG fall off of your order sheet to? My initial MSRP was 75,370 but Ram changed my order and the ASG fell off and new MSRP is 73,435. My dealer is telling me the ASG and Tech group is included in my Level 1 still. I find it weird the MSRP is reduced by $1,935 but still retain all of the features of ASG. I’m crossing my fingers and hoping that is the case. I plan to not accept the truck if it don’t have the ASG features.

Estimated shipping date and estimated build dates are meaningless. They are there just to keep us from bugging the dealers so much.

southwest. where majority rules
Where would I check for Canadian window sticker?
Estimated ship date it Oct 10. 1C6SRFJT7NN181061
I ordered a Sport back in July was stuck at D status. Apparently this Laramie is D1 and has that estimated ship date.
Don’t really trust the dealer though.
you are 11,939 vins after me so you need to find out when your order went in. I would expect you to be waiting until dec or jan 2022. but then you could get a build sheet tomorrow.
we are all in the same boat, the waiting boat.

Please don't post this guys personal stuff. I understand we want our trucks but putting one person on blast is not the answer.
