2025 Ram 1500 Order Updates
I called my dealer today and my truck is in KZP status. (staged in bay waiting on railcar.) That's the my understanding of that status. I guess the next step is to find out how to track on the rail carrier. Has anyone figured that process out yet?
I believe that the dealer will be the only way to get updates. They can see the progress as it makes its way on the carrier. Mine was in KZP status today as well. Coming from Michigan then to Ohio then western PA then northeast PA.
Awesome! Looking forward to delivery day I expect? I know I am. If you get a minute, put your signature line with your build stats so everyone knows your progress and what you ordered.
Look back a couple pages. I posted that a few days ago.

So some pricing on an option or options or the base price went down since July. Not counting the increased incentives my truck is now $2k cheaper. Plus the additional $2k in incentives my truck is now $4k cheaper than when I placed the order. I guess that’s payment for having to wait so long?

I agree. I don’t care if the price goes down anymore. I’d just like my truck now.
My tracker just says D1 (since August), with TBD for ship or delivery date.
Anthony told me 11/6 for ship, but since it’s not even in production yet… it’s gonna be yet another delay.
How are trucks ordered in Oct so far ahead of some of us?

Good news!! I'm still trying to get an update on mine. The tracker shows it went into production Oct 24th. Ram Cares chat told me last week it was released from the plant (Status KZ). They won't give me any updates now(it's a crap shoot depending on the rep you get on their chat system). Hoping my salesman will pull his head out of his *** and get me an update.
Ideally, I'd like to have all the paperwork and everything done when it arrives. I know they have to detail it, add ceramic coating, etc.... but I don't want to be spending an hour or two in the dealership doing paperwork when it's finally ready. Hoping to set it up so I can swing by, do the inspection, toss them the keys to my trade and be out with a new truck.
I'm still not understanding how trucks ordered months later than some of us are in production and being delivered, and our Tungstens are still in limbo. I wish we had some idea of why - maybe it's something in our build holding it up? if so, give us a chance to change it!

I'm curious about that as well. Although, I'm one of those with a recent order that seems to be beating yours. While I feel bad for you, I'm a little selfish sometimes and just going to rub it in your face a little!! LOL
I did not get the multi function tailgate as there was something that I put on it that made that not available. I also did not get the off road package. Not sure if that all makes a difference or not.
I tried to customize my search and figure out how they release these trucks. I couldn't find why some trucks are ahead of the others. I have ordered a BMW for my wife, they are way better than RAM. When I send them an email couple of weeks ago they told me that It will go to production on Week 43 and it exactly happened.

I also wonder if they are spreading the wealth to the different dealerships. With so many orders coming from Mark Dodge, I'm wondering if they are making sure to sprinkle in some orders from other dealerships to not show favoritism. Definitely an odd situation. However, I could see dealerships in other areas getting pissed at Ram if all they are fulfilling is one dealerships orders. With he volume that Mark Dodge does, they could dedicate an entire plant to it.
Mine has all these, ORP & Multi Function Tailgate.
Agree. It seems like it should just be FIFO. It shouldn't matter where the orders come from, they should just be filled as they come in. If MD kills it and gets more in, then good for them. I hope there isn't some sort of woke policy in play that's trying to spread this around.
