FWIW I went creeping on the TRX forum for info because they seem to have more insiders over there. Knightmare and others came through.

Voluntary work today and tomorrow, then shutdown until 1/9. However… People will be there finishing trucks that have been sitting around waiting on parts.

Furthermore, Knightnare said that shipping runs separate from the plant, so completed trucks should still get loaded onto trucks and trains through the plant shutdown.

Hope this helps.
Yes, that helps a lot. I appreciate the info. I guess I should visit that site more often now that I know we are 2nd class citizens over here on 5thgen 🤣

I know knightmare aka butter da great usually has good information, but I believe he has the return date incorrect according to the union contract page 97 and 95 they return to work on Jan 3rd 2023

The document he (or someone else) referenced was pretty old. 2019 IRC. I’m sure everything changed after the Rona. Selfishly all I care about is my completed truck getting on a train. So as long as they’re still loading during the shutdown I’m golden 😂 but I’m sure others with trucks that started production would like to know there’s a chance theirs still gets finished over the next week.

you don't seem to understand how contracts work
the link i posted was when the contract started
it expires on sept 14, 2023 as can be seen on page 117

so this is the most current info.

Random question of the night: So my truck was scheduled to be work on 12/15, that doesn’t mean that it was started right? Everything else is TBD.

My Truck was scheduled on the same day as you and no it hasn't started production yet. My status reflects the same as yours as TBD for the rest. We will just have to be patient until after the new year some time 🤣

Awesome! Let's hope mine starts to see ANY kind of update on the coming weeks.

Thanks for the best news I have received!
Well, I didn't pay enough attention to the data I was looking at. That count of 15 included the pre-production models (I have to filter those out when talking about production numbers). As of right now, there are only 2 production Laramies with the 12" cluster.

922 Build Sheets found today. None of them were forum members.
TOP CHARTS UPDATED!
@triple_B My truck went into E status as of 26 Dec. How long after that will I see the build sheet for it? The tracker on page one still says I am D1.

Unless I missed it even on the Ram build site I don’t see an option or a package for the 12” cluster on a Laramie.

I wouldn’t put much stock in the website - it’s always behind. Does anyone have any recent experience at the dealer? Does their system show it as an option?
