2022 Orders

Yes, that's the information that Donlen has posted (it was previously shown as 7/26). The UAW 1700 page, which I trust more than Donlen, still shows the planned shutdown ending on 7/25. And @redriderbob (who is a co-editor on this site, and has a source in FCA) also confirmed those dates.
But who knows anymore...it appears that things have changed, and I don't have any newer information.
 
Actually it is Job 2 that starts for MY21 F150... :) Raptor and Tremor are part of that..

22 SOP for F150 isn't until December. The dealers are always the last to know....

I also have a Bronco on order and usually tell my dealer what I learn vs what they tell him......
Yeah I’m talking about the Ram 1500 not the F-150. The Raptor to my knowledge is going to be a 2021.5 vehicle.

I'm wondering if production is resuming on 7/25 but to finish '21 builds and start '22s. Maybe those late production '21s will get UConnect5? Rare trucks if they do.
 
I ordered a Limited Longhorn instead of a Laramie and it is costing me about 3500 more. Of course I get the goodies in the upgraded trim. Did this primarily to get the Tech. Group and ASG options. I'm relatively conservative ( my kids would say cheap) and would normally only order the trim I wanted with the options I wanted. One thing is for sure: By ordering, you aren't paying msrp at a local dealer at an inflated price with options you don't want. BTW, a shout out to Joe Co. thanks so much for your guidance on this forum. If it weren't for you..........
You might want to look at a regular Limited, unless the interior color of the Longhorn is a deal breaker. Longhorn costs more $$$ for the same or less features. Was about $1300 more than Limited on 2021 when I was ordering, and the Longhorn didn't have the $1800 air suspension.
 
and the Longhorn didn't have the $1800 air suspension.

That's actually the part that made me have no choice but to order longhorn (between the longhorn and limited). I do like the interiors of the longhorns a lot but I wouldn't rule out buying a limited if it wasn't for the air ride.

I'm a fan of the air suspension. I like how it levels the load, and parking in a tight parking spot with the suspension in off-road 2 and running boards deployed really helps to cut down on door dings. Doors on taller vehicles could still contact the sheet metal, but almost all car doors will hit the steps before contacting any painted surfaces.

Thanks for the pro tip! How do you keep the air ride from dropping automatically after parking? I think my mom's jeep drops on its own.

Pro tip indeed, this is genius! Thank you!
 
My dad finally went in to get a status on the truck the dealership ordered in his specs; D status. Ordered 5/19. He still has not committed to buying it yet, and if they don't give him much/anything off of MSRP, I doubt he will. Its a small town dealership, I bet they'll work out something. They already offered him about $1k more than the VROOM and other instant offers for his trade, he can probably talk 'em up a bit more.

Turns out, its missing the Technology package, but it seems thats not important to him. However, if its missing the blind spot monitoring (which used to be standard on the Limited), he may wait for a 2023 or later. "Total Price" below is not what they want for it, its MSRP.

I got 10k off a fully loaded laramine. Call my guy he will hook you up

It certainly does have some good advantages, in my case in particular it's just a situation where I don't benefit much from them personally. I know the 5th gens have held up better thus far then the 4th gens but without much benefit (personally) and the possibility of failure, it's a deal breaker for me. Maybe if they still have a good reputation by the next time I'm looking I may consider it, but it would be more a novelty thing unless my needs change (ya never know!).

The RAM doesn't have that option from what I recall poking around UConnect. You can turn that off in the Jeep if you wanted.
 
Ordered my 22' Limited 10th Ann. yesterday 7/13 at 1:40 pm and this morning already has a vin# assigned 122263 ...

l always put a Snuglid hard tonneau cover on the truck ... and with the 10th Ann. you get the MFT which with additional bracing doesn't allow you to install it ... so l ordered the tri-fold tonneau from factory and think already l will not be happy with it ... anyone have the MFT and installed a hard tonneau cover ... lmk ... thx

If you'd like to be added to the tracking spreadsheet, please provide the last 6 digits of your VIN. Thanks.
