what makes you believe that this "Between being changed from level 2 to level b" will not happen again.

because this has been a cluster f u c k!!!!


for a lot a of us!!!
It is already a level B according to the purchase order. I accept that as I'm being told up front. The only option available at this time with order is to choose the power folding tow mirrors at an approximate $450 up charge. Not really what I wanted. If I have issues getting it in my garage, Infotainment.com has a full replacement kit for the bargain price of only $1400 I believe it is! My plan is to learn to love a manual folder! You are so correct regarding the cluster!

Infotainment is a ripoff imo. All they do is refurbish from wrecked vehicles and upcharge. (Personal experience pricing the center screen on a pacifica through them $2000, parted it out via local scrap yards for $1200.

Well I guess I'm back in the group! After a few back and forth emails , text messages, and phone calls, I ordered a Rebel GT from Sandi at Mark Dodge. What a difference in professionalism and courtesy compared to my local dealer! Now I get to start the waiting game all over again! Happy to be back. :)
Taking over/under bets on how many of us in the 12xxxx range and below are still without trucks when your build sheet pops up. Opening range: ALL.

I hope you are incorrect. I absolutely do not understand how/why Ram is constructing VIN's in the order they are! BS in my opinion (By the way...BS does not stand for Build Sheet!).

Only emails I've received from FCA are the "I've opened a special tracking file for your order" email back on 8-24 and then the "your new RAM truck will be on the way to you soon" email on 9-22.

whats the deal w/ the running boards on the Rebels,,, ,has anyone confirmed they are not running boards and the crappy looking oval things ? not going to be happy if those are on my Rebel.
I have the one's that Dazana got. The steps they showed before today (ie 4 Months ago) are different than what I am seeing online now. BUT I didn't want tubular anyways, I only took it as that was all that was offered on the build site. Happy with what I got. Oh, it still drives very well and the stereo has been a LOT more cooperative lately. And it gets LOUD! I haven't owned anything that got this loud ever.

Somebody at Stellanis is pissing into the wind, 120xxx, how about 100xxx. I had to put new tires and just relicense my trade in for another year. Now I borrow relatives and friends trucks to set up for hunting season

Any guess to how long a truck stays in the "getting special equipment being installed" phase?

I received my build sheet on 10/14, but still waiting on the window sticker.

Gee I just noticed you ordered 3 days in May before me a the the only differences in the builds is mine is an EcoDiesel and I ordered the Trailer Tow Group. My status is still “Someday Maybe”

I order the same day , I got my vin a day earlier. I requested a claim # two week ago as of today and still not heard any thing from Ram chat or cares. I requested my dealer/salesman to find out when they will build the truck I order and he said he would reach out to regional sales manager for a build date. As of this morning no information from them either.
I guess those two email's I received, the last one 9-22 that ever one got saying I should be receiving my new truck soon was a lie.

Guess we can wait and see who gets theirs first. Good luck

My dealer has mentioned that their Rep states it's not any one thing hanging up builds, they just cite "chip shortages" even to them. They are of the option too that decked out trucks are on the back burner to get quantity churned out.

That last sentence I think it what is ringing true, as least that’s how it feels. Those of us with several options on the vehicles it feels like they have been pushed back. I’m going on 12 weeks since my order with no VIN assigned

You need to light up your dealer. There is NO reason for you to not have a VIN number already. If you don't have a VIN they have not submitted your order, likely because they are out of vehicle allocations and they're holding your order until they get more.
