Same here, I'll be 68 3 months from today.
I got the call from Mark Dodge a few days ago. New truck shipping Saturday, should be here Monday! Hoping this will be "the truck." The crew at MD has been 100 percent from day 1. Logistics guy suggested starting at $1400, I said go $1500 to get it on...
I just tried to duplicate my order on the Ram site. My truck is a (fairly loaded) Limited Longhorn with the Southfork package. It looks like the Southfork option is no longer available, at least I couldn't get it to add. I went with the e-torque, kin of wishing I'd gone with the eco and 4wd...
My closest Ram dealer, and the second closest, are really really bad. I live faaar from Mark Dodge. There is a dealer that isn't too far away that has been decent so far regarding service, and I'm hoping they will be supportive if any warranty issues arise. Here in Ca there's an awful lot of "I...
Thanks to @TripleB I got my BS April 1, and WS on Apr 3. Unfortunately Stellantis isn't able to tell Aaron at MD where it is. I find this just a little frustrating. (nothing but appreciation for Aaron. Every dealer sales person should have his work ethic and professionalism). I never would have...
It depends on which truck you are building. It's been $4995 for at least a year for some models. Other models start with a different engine, and the cost difference is lower. Another thing: the VVT and E-torque engine now have the same cost. If a certain model already comes with a VVT, then the...
Thanks very much!!!!!
For data purposes. my memory is order was confirmed on Feb 14. Aaron was cautious about schedule, and this seems much better/quicker than anticipated. The website says it should have rear reclining seats, but no mention on the build sheet or window sticker. It'll be...
It will be interesting to see. The reclining rear seat isn't mentioned in my build sheet, but is still listed as part of the package for the truck I ordered. I'll be disappointed if it's not there. Mine's a Limited Longhorn Southfork.
Lemon law might end up applying. If they have the truck over 30 days in the first year in Ca for the same issue, it's a lemon. I have a few friends that have been through the process. Overall quality has not been good for some vehicles.
Do a build on the ram truck site, and save it to your computer. Email that to Aaron or Ranae at Mark Dodge. Ask them to help. I'm pretty sure you will be treated as well as possible. They are in Lake Charles, La, and I'm in southern California. I'm buying my truck from them.
I completely understand. I hope it goes well.
I was lucky in one way, ordered from Aaron, all that was good. Then a couple of weeks later Russia/Ulraine goes off, and gas has gone up $2 per gallon here. I would have ordered a lower trim 3.6 and lived with that, instead of the loaded up likely...
More props to Aaron. I didn't know he was away, but I sent an email with gentle check status request. It had only been a month since ordering, but I was wondering if he's heard anything about part shortages, stuff like that. He responded, and told me my truck was in D1, and build should start...
That's going to be a very nice truck. I ordered one very similar, only 2wd and no trailer tow stuff. I feel very lucky so far working with Aaron at MD. I'm thinking about doing a 1 month check in with him. I've been wondering if the configuration was a hold up due to parts shortage, and how big...
Just to be sure, did you do a build and save it with the same equipment, and get a quote from Aaron or Sandi for the build?
I did a build on the Ram site for a loaded Big Horn, came to about $55K. There's a bunch of various lesser Big Horns around at dealers for less, due to having less of the...
I had my VIN a couple of days after ordering. Aaron told me he might have it the day after, but I didn't press him. A day or two isn't a big deal to me, and me having the VIN isn't going to get the truck built any faster. Aaron was great to work with.
Good luck to all of us!
