You won't see a build sheet until the next business day after it gets through frame, paint, and trim. Figure next Monday.

Well looks like there is some movement for me from the Body Vendor (JB). Ram Chat just said I am in shipping so hopefully seeing a WS the evening or sometime this weekend.

So, 2 questions, what does the 9/13 start numbers mean and also I see in your vehicle description that have the ReTrax Pro XR tonneau cover, how do you like it and is it worth the price?

9/13 was when my2022 finally started for the 1500 ram

As @bigdodge said, that was the first day of 2022 production (it had been a moving target until then). So the thin straight blue line is the projection of production starting on that date, and assuming they build 6000 trucks a week. Based on the jagged line of VIN assignments, it was a pretty good assumption.

I really like my RetraxPro XR. I took the time to align the rails perfectly, so it opens and closes like butter. It doesn't keep the bed perfectly dry, but no tonneau cover will.
My only complaint, and it's not a Retrax problem, is that I can't get the rails to lay down perfectly across the bedsides - but it's because I have the Rambar. So the rails sit a little high towards the cab, and are tight to the bedsides at the rear.

Anybody have any luck with RamChat giving an ETA to dealer?

My truck has been ready for shipment for over a week now and can’t get anything beyond that from chat or dealer. Also checked Cassens but no VIN found. Maybe using a different shipping service. Are there others that can be checked?

Just got off with chatting with RamChat. My vehicle is still in the scheduling process and they could not tell me why it is taking so long. Based on digging around on here is seems it is either the night edition or air suspension holding up the build on my bighorn. Ordered end of march.

I believe the night edition is what is the hold up. Seems night edition and the back country orders have parts availability issues. When I look at the tracker, all the empty big horn orders are either night edition or back country. I just find it odd that nobody knows anything when it comes to order status, other then the status it is in. Like nobody can ask why are truck is still pending being built or why a truck is stuck somewhere. Everybody is clueless.

Which is strange, since it seems like *every single* dealer inventory truck has night edition.

I noticed that too. My local dealer has a bunch of them all delivered in the past few weeks. Most are non-e-torque as well which I find strange because my dealer claims everybody wants it due to gas prices. Maybe a shortage of e-torque parts???

A week before I placed my order, someone on here said they were not accepting night edition orders as they tried to place one. Mine went through just fine, dealer never said anything and its sitting in D status. There have been rumors on face book about parts issues involving night edition but nothing concrete anywhere. But yea, I see alot of night editions on the dealer lots in my area.

what is your take on the air suspension? My short time following this thread I have not seen any air suspension trucks come out. My dealer rep said he has a customer with a 2500 who has air suspension and his has been held up for a while too.
