2022 Orders

Get a hold of your dealer and demand that your Limited look like the one on their advertising.

Man, this is a super-clusterfuck.

Whoa, it finally worked! Holy ****!
Dammit...

Honestly, at this point, given that I sent from D to C to D1 and back to C, I'm considering just ordering a fully-loaded 2022 TRX and seeing which one comes first. I figure, worst-case-scenario, I'll keep two excellent trucks and get to keep the mileage down on each by putting them into the rotation with the new M5, or I'll buy both and sell one of them with 15 miles on it for a massive profit.

The only downside to that is I'll have doubled my chances of going insane as a result of having to track two new builds.

I love that. Clearly they have terrible asset managers. Or no asset managers. lol

Who knows... all the photos labeled "2022 Ram 1500 Limited" either show a truck with a black tonneau cover (which is standard on the 10th Anniversary Edition) or are photos of a TRX. So, it's hard to know what the clusterfuck is going on, other than Stellantis has no clue what it is doing.

To that end, is anyone concerned about the quality of the vehicles given all the conflicting information about what the vehicles will, and won't, come with?

Tonneau covers are standard on 10th Anniversary Editions? This is what my dealer said I’d get with it.

 

[PCHokie]

I'm assuming that these are from people that placed orders in like May/June...?

I’m a 23 July order in D1.

I may be wrong (and NADA says I am), but I thought I had read somewhere that the 10th Anniversary edition came with a soft cover.

All good, I was happy for a second thinking I was getting one for free. I’ve used Retrax Retractable Tonneau covers on my last three trucks and planned to for this one but the damn MFT is preventing that because of the bracket in bed… If I had known that prior to ordering I would have ordered with Ram Box so I could get Tonneau cover I wanted.

I must have missed the "free tonneau offer" on my Limited 10th order!! (Where did you find it??)

I'm a June 20th order in D (I think).

You can get aftermarket brackets that replace the factory ones and allow you to install a retrax. There is a thread around here somewhere about it. The brackets are $100 bucks or something around there.

Yep, sounds like I'm still in D according to Ram Chat.

Interesting video talking about the semiconductor chip shortage. It focuses on the GPU/CPU side of things but does have a small snippet about the auto industry. Im hoping that the auto industry can return to normal levels before 2023 but who knows at this point. Hopefully we can avoid long shutdowns, but I'm skeptical.

 

[PCHokie]

I'm a June 20th order in D (I think).

The only reasons I can think that mine went quicker is:

1. Fewer options selected, so fewer chips needed
2. Ordered now deleted package (ASG) and they wanted to get the odd orders out first

 

[AMS Guru]

the option of the black interior and the blue/sea salt interior was separate $0 option from the limited package


I get that. He said that since it was the 10th it would reject the order if we didn't check that package also. I was already going to get it so I didn't argue. Seemed to me like they should have rolled that in if it was forced. But it makes that new drop sound more accurate given my experience.

OK, I think we're maybe getting some wires crossed here. Let me clarify to the best of my knowledge. The Indigo/Sea Salt interior MUST be paired with the 10th Anniversary Package. They are separate codes (because one is a body color code and the other is a package) BUT they go together and one will force the other.

Said another way: If you want Indigo/Sea Salt interior you HAVE to also get the 10th Anniversary package. If you want the 10th Anniversary package you HAVE to go with Indigo/Sea Salt interior color. It's all or nothing.

This all being said, it's a PACKAGE with "exclusive" interior color ADDED to a Limited trim. It's not a trim level in and of itself.

• 10th Anniversary Package (AYG) (Listed under Options)
  • Multi-Function Tailgate (MWK)
  • Rotary Shifter-Jeweled (C1N)
  • 19 SPKR Harman Kardon Prem. Sound (RCA)
  • Suede Headliner (CHG)
  • Mopar 4 Adjust. Cargo Tie Down Hooks (CL2)
  • Instrument Cluster Theme 8 (JY8)
  • Tailgate Ajar Warning Lamp (LAN)
  • Ventilated Rear Seats (CAH)
  • Mopar Bed Step Deployable Ctr. Mount (MD1)
  • Mopar Bright Pedal Kit (XB4)
• Indigo/Sea Salt (-CD) (Listed under Paint/Seat/Trim)

The previous Indigo/Frost interior colorway has been discontinued/superceded by the new Indigo/Sea Salt. The downside of it all is even though the 10th Anniversary Pkg. is being advertised as "Inside, the Ram 1500 Limited 10th Anniversary Edition’s interior is another summit in the light-duty lineup that already boasts the pinnacle of luxury and refinement." The door panels and bolsters are CLOTH inserts instead of the 100% leather that existed previously. I'm a little chapped by this one myself....

Is funny in an ironic way that “pinnacle of luxury and refinement” is achieved with a less premium material…

Pretty sure I read an article that said the 10th Anniversary Limited package would include a coupon for one of these:

 

[thenachobro]

I was told 8-12 weeks. It's been 5 so far. Even the 12 week mark is extraordinarily optimistic I'd say.

I ordered 6 May, the 16 week mark is still quite optimistic!

 

[Drum-Kicker]

I know what you mean. I'm actually slightly more interested in Level 1 now that they're merging the Tech Group with it (depending on what they does to the price). But I can (easily) live without it (Adapt. Cruise/ASG stuff) cause I haven't had it before. My last vehicle before my current one had keyless entry, and so does my current one, so that's like 8 years of having it, no way I can give that up now. I'll be yanking on my locked door and grunting in frustration every time I go to get in my car lol

I heard from a veteran dealer today the MSPR on the 2022 Limited Level 1 pkg is 2995.00 and includes:
Adaptive Cruise Control w/Stop & Go (NHZ)
19 SPKR Harman Kardon Prem. Sound (RCA)
Surround View Camera System (XAK)
Head Up Display (LBK)
Parallel & Perp Park Assist w/Stop (XH5)
LED CHMSL Lamp (LPH)
Tailgate Ajar Warning Lamp (LAN)
Ventilated Rear Seats (CAH)
Pedestrian Emergency Braking (LST)
Digital Rearview Mirror (GRG)
Lane Keep Assist (LAS)

I’ve seen tonneau threads that talk about swapping out the brackets with Right On brackets for $50, they are made with 3/8 inch piece of steel and uses your existing bolts. Give it a search. Later
