    How to TRY and prevent our trucks from being stolen

    If you go the AirTag route, you may want to consider putting 2 in the vehicle. Apparently some thieves scan for them on the vehicle, they might find one and assume its free, only to miss the other.

    How to TRY and prevent our trucks from being stolen

    There’s quite a few GPS trackers on the market and their monthly fees vary. $9 per month isn’t bad at all. The AirTag is an Apple device you can attach just about to anything, including a dog’s collar. It has a small lithium battery in it and it communicates to other Apple devices which in...

    How to TRY and prevent our trucks from being stolen

    Not really thinking about the Ravelco since from what I’ve read it disables the remote start. On -20 and -30 days in the winter its sure nice to have. Was in Knoxville a couple of weeks ago when it approached 100 degrees, and again, really nice to remote start the truck with AC on max.

    How to TRY and prevent our trucks from being stolen

    That’s a good suggestion! I was thinking of wiring in a dummy OBD port in the original location and putting 12v on all 3 pairs of data lines (J1850, ISO9141 and CANBUS) but would want something like you suggested, capacitive discharge to smoke their device.

    How to TRY and prevent our trucks from being stolen

    So i’ve been reading all the replies to my original post and thanks to everyone you chimed in. Lots of good suggestions. I am leaning towards the IGLA anti-theft device, though A) I’m not sure when I’d be able to get one since they’re coming from Russia and B) they’re Russian made so not...

    How to TRY and prevent our trucks from being stolen

    I’ve got replacement insurance also, and its WELL worth the small cost. It’s already paid out the full cost of the previous truck and covers even the increase to get the new one. I don’t really care to jump through hoops pulling relays or fuses to try and stop someone stealing it the next...

    How to TRY and prevent our trucks from being stolen

    Not sure how many of y‘all have had your truck stolen or heard of all the thefts but I thought I’d ask…. What have you done or are considering doing to try and prevent it from happening to you. I had my factory ordered 2021 Ram Sport for all of 7 months and it was stolen from my driveway a...

    Order Tracking

    There certainly was no rhyme or reason that I could figure why there were a number of us that ordered trucks (even back as far as November) were never built. Really hoping for the bunch that got bumped to ‘22’s will be somewhere at the front of the line. That would only be fair.

    Order Tracking

    Well, I honestly had doubts that my truck would ever get built despite being given a build date of August 19th earlier this month. Well, surprise surprise when I called the dealer yesterday he said my truck was in paint already and I just got alerted from crypto stickers that the build sheet...

    Ordered on Feb 8, and only heard about a week ago now truck was scheduled to be built on August 12th, then it was the 18th. Went into the dealer last week and it got pushed back again to Aug.19. Going to go see them early next week to see if there’s an update.

    I’ve been dealing with Hunt in Milton.

    Oh cool didn’t even know about the windowsticker.fcacanada.ca site. Thanks!

    You may want to check with your dealer to see if they have an update. Cdnsport21 and BornTooLate both got theirs bumped to ‘22’s. Don’t quote me on this, but I think the build sheet only shows up right around time that the truck is built, and the window sticker when its ready to be shipped...

    So I went to the dealership to confirm. It’s actually Aug.18 (not sure if the 12 was a typo or whether it changed) but I saw the build date on the screen as 18th, and the VIN hasn’t changed so it’s still a ‘21.

    Didn’t even think to ask that since I thought the ‘22’s were starting to be built 8/25 (based on the Donlans site).

    Order Tracking

    I just got an email from my dealer mine is scheduled for build on Aug.12 now. Very interesting how some are built and some are pushed to ‘22’s. Hope they put the sold orders to the front of the queue!

    Well, that’s not encouraging news. 🙁 And I’m sure incredibly disappointing since I saw you ordered your truck in November 2020!

    Congratulations, it looks awesome! I’m sure you’ll enjoy hauling the trailer with the new truck. #STILLWAITING :)

    Depending on where you’re going in Ontario, keep an eye on the forest fires. If you’re going past Dryden we have a lot of fires that are burning close to Hwy 17 and might affect your travel plans. Let alone the massive fires we’ve got further north.

    Good news indeed for Canadian orders. Great news for you! Congratulations! Enjoy the truck! You need to take it on a 1600km road trip like jgreen.
