nice truck. that pearl white tri-coat looks like it might be white enough for me to order. all other pearl white's I've seen (past rams, chevys etc). all look great from for 4 feet - but looked too "cream" colour from afar. i will definately need to see one in person now.

it's not pearl. not even close. i would not have ordered my limited if it looked any thing like the pearl. closer to the bright white.

I ordered the following on the 31st. I'll likely call the dealer tomorrow and check to see if I have a VON yet.

You should have been given a VON when the order was placed and entered in the network. By now you should have a VIN when you contact the dealer. Also, get an updated copy of that POC for your records.

Cool I'll ask when I talk to them. So the updated POC is to link it to the VIN?

a new POC should have your Vin and Von number on it

Got it, I've never ordered a vehicle before so I'm just catching up with the whole process from the forums.

So reviewing my order, I've got a question about the limited. My build shows no extra charge for advanced safety package or level 1 package, because I thought that adaptive cruise was standard. But another dealer told me that adaptive cruise would not be..I didn't believe him. BUT, I just played around with the website and if you click advance safety package, it takes the adaptive cruise controls on and off the steering wheel. So since I told my dealer order me the most stripped down Limited he could....thinking it came pretty loaded with standard features, does anyone know if I just took adaptive cruise off? Here is my build

I am not 100% but I think he took it off completely. When you build a Limited it’s an option that is already added and listed as the advanced safety group. It’s worked into the price I believe. When you add the Limited Level 1 group it REMOVES that option package and updates it to include more like the HK sound system.

Personally I would be concerned it’s not on there since your build does not list either the Advanced Saftey Group or Limited Level 1 Group.

ONCE AGAIN though I’m not 100% sure and could be wrong. I find it strange it doesn’t list either option since they both are on website when you build a truck. I’d figure that sheet should have at least one or the other. That’s my two cents.

That's sort of what I'm thinking too. In a perfect world, it'd come in with ACC and he'd honor the price agreed....In my world, it will come in late November with ramboxes only on one side and no ACC.

welp, my world won. Asked my dealer, he said no, ACC is not standard. The website says it is (which is what I was going off) and I just talked to one of the best ram chat people (@RamCares, give Michael a raise) ever and he confirmed that ACC and the options that go with Advance Safety Package are not standard like the website says. Bad news, my order is now obsolete as pretty much the only reason im upgrading is for ACC. Good news....time to search for Limiteds on the lot.

additionally, the picture of asking about delays was before the ACC talk. So there is a noted delay in the system for Limited builds

Glad you figured that all out an confirmed. If I waited months for a truck and it showed up not want I’d want I’d be beyond pissed.

Doesn’t surprise me about the delay on Limiteds though. Hopefully things pick up for those waiting. Mine should be leaving for the outfitter today or tomorrow hopefully.

Interesting. He specifically called out the 23M and 25M Limiteds as having delays but not the 27M which is the eTorque Hemi....

Just placed my order from dealer this afternoon. Think I got a decent deal. Got a $6500 dealer discount plus a minimum of a $1000 rebate. If the rebates are better when I take delivery I will get those.
