I hear you...it's hard to keep everyone happy! I did show some cumulative totals (by series/cab/bed) back in post #3100 of this thread. There, you can see that TRX's are not being built in nearly the quantities of most other trims. In fact, if you strip things down to just the series, here's what it looks like...not counting today's build sheets.

Thanks Eighty appreciate you all that keep us informed! I didn't think they where building more TRX'S. Just figured people with the other models would of been a higher number.

Sorry I meant pdx train depot.

Found out that I have to wait a couple more days. Because the service department supposedly had a couple mechanics go out for covid. So they can't go through vehicle for delivery .

Well thats what I thought but the website says they both lock electronically. neither says by a button. One may do it automatically and the other by a button. And BTW I've rebuilt more differentials than you've ever seen. I know the difference.

Well there's your problem, the website is not particularly helpful even when they have everything filled out, and right now it's not even close.

And some items look like they should have more info but don't.

you've got that right. I just built one and said add the trailer tow group which says it comes with the steering and trailer brake controller. But if you use the 360 view to see your dash the steering wasn't there and scroll down it shows the brake controller added but zero cost as it should be, go down farther to the summary and it charged for both, lol. So my point was the the "electronic locking rear axel" is the one with the button and the anti spin locks by itself and is like my 2006 Grand Cherokee with quadra drive 2 that had a "lock" button to lock the ELSD's front and rear if you wanted them to stay locked. It did work amazing well BTW.

I know from ram videos, the E locker turns off (once activated) at 25mph for 2wd and 4wd low, 40mph for 4wd high, and stays on for the full range of speed for the TRX.

Timeline info on my truck order:
VIN 122803
Ordered 7/17
VIN 7/28 or sooner
D1 on or before 10/18 (all parts gathered waiting for build to begin per Ram Chat, dealer said that build would be on 10/25, and they were right)
Build Sheet 10/25
Out for bed liner 10/28
Ram Chat says it is in transit 11/1-- estimated delivery 11/4 to 11/19 to Lake Charles

I didn't ask for updates consistently, so I'm not sure exactly when the truck entered certain stages.
Hope this helps the number crunching a little!

I'm confused.. is the bedliner considered "optional features or equipment" ? You got your WS before being sent for bedliner, but ramchat (and "jeff") said my truck went for optional features last week but no WS yet.

I think most manufacturers do that. I know that Nissan Does that, and it still says locked on the dash, when it's not. LOL I think some did it at 19 mph.

some posters are reporting that dealers are installing the bed liner and other things.

I got you. When I first started building, I'd see a part and in my extreme noobery I'm like, "geez, I have no idea what that is, Ram website help me out here" ***literally no description*** 😐

So I noticed from my original sheet and today’s some obvious changes and some new ones like: they got rid of MYA-rebel hood decal, A65 is now A75 (which we knew). I want that hood decal, I’ll probably have the dealership order one and put it on.🤷‍♂️

I'm really close to placing my order. Does anyone know if there needs to be a code for the anti-spin rear diff, which I believe is included in the Night edition? The numbers aren't adding up and that is the only thing that I can think of that could be missing as it shows it separately when you build it online.

I ordered the night package

I admit, I'm not sure. I think I got my WS on the 26th, but maybe I am wrong? I know I had it by the 28th because that is the day I thought to look for it and save it.

It sounds likely that I am wrong about my WS date.

Although the order to actual ship date was 37 days my truck is sitting at the rail / trucking transfer station in Hegewisch IL since 10- 15 with an initial ETA to dealer 150 miles North of 10-18 / 10-28 that has been updated yesterday to 10-28 / 11-10.

My dealer received their first 2022 Ram #NN116727 ($49K) Thursday, and would be interested to know the WS date on this truck to see what the delivery time was.

I agree! I’m 150 as well and live in MI too!
Sure would be nice if they would throw my 121 on that MI truck as well.
