2025 Ram 1500 Order Updates

[Teeps NE]

Was hoping that I'd be getting the call on Monday as the dealership told me last week the estimated delivery date was Dec 8th and it seems everyone has been beating those estimates once they pop up. Still no call, tracker shows Dec 20th, dealership still says the 8th.

Partially just posting all of this because it seems each time I do, I get an update that is counter to what I posted. Thinking maybe the illuminati of trucks(Cheetohs man in his Mom's basement) is watching this forum and pulling strings to make us all look like imbeciles.

Last note(don't forget to doordash some doughnuts to Anthony down in Louisiana).

My truck supposed to be built/completed tomorrow and they gave me an EDD of 2.12.

How do you know it's supposed to be built/completed tomorrow? Just curious. Mine supposedly went into production last Friday, and the only thing I have is the EDD of 2/17

Anthony MD said they had an invoice from Stellantis and showed the build date completion of 12.06.

Now my truck (VIN #) showing on MD website as being built and already sold.

It’s another Christmas miracle! I got a very unexpected, but much appreciated phone call from Mark Dodge today saying that my truck had been delivered! Starting the paperwork process today in a couple of hours

Congrats!!! See, i told everyone if we all started doordashing doughnuts to @AnthonyRI that we'd all start seeing movement. Keep it up, some of us are still waiting.

BTW, if we actually do this, I fully expect AnthonyRI to post pictures of the team at Mark Dodge enjoying the plethora of doughnuts they would receive.

I'm honestly really tempted to do this but I think he works from home LOL

I'm with you. But I think you're right. He's closer to you and me than he is to the dealership.

I just noticed that my truck is now showing up in the tracker. "Being built - sale pending" for Mark Dodge. I'm not sure how to see any progress other than what Anthony tells me (and he's pretty up on it). I need to take a two-three month nap, and wake up to a surprise.

This is true. For reference, it just started snowing out my office window, and it is fully dark outside.

Must be northern LA.... Just kidding!
Ya, it's blowing 40-50 mph here, and the snow squalls are pretty intense.

 

[Peterhenric]

Sounds reasonable. Yours is estimated to deliver 2 days after mine. Both shipped the same day. Yours is going to LA and mine is going to PA.

Your truck hasn't delivered to the dealer yet? I think we both expected it to arrive before mine did. Wishing the speediest of deliveries for you.

I'd be surprised if I don't get the call Tuesday - Thursday next week. Not sure where the rail yard is in Baltimore, but all transit times are ~12 days +/- a day per the CSX website, regardless of which Baltimore rail yard it ships to. Assuming it's not Sparrows Point (longest transit time I've seen) since that's predominantly ship-to-rail from what I understand. No significant delays with CSX (we use them for work), and they operate through Thanksgiving. Guessing 2 days to unload the railcar, load onto truck and drive the 1.5 hours from Baltimore to Harrisburg. That puts it arriving on 12/11.

On second thought, we all know how this process has gone so far... so I take back that first sentence. I WON'T be surprised if I don't get the call.

So a few notes on the purchase process today with the guys at Mark Dodge:
It couldn’t have been any easier and less pushy. EXTREMELY HAPPY
Got everything done via zoom in about 30-45 minutes. The finance guys were able to get me an additional $2k discount because I have a ford vehicle. $14k discount on the very well equipped truck plus $5k Ram incentives plus another $2k for the Ford discount. This truck went from “really pricey” to “quite a bit less pricey”.
There was one dent on the truck that occurred sometime during shipping that they are going to fix and should be ready to ship out on Monday or Tuesday next week. I’m so excited I can hardly handle it.

Nice truck. Couldn't agree more. Mark Dodge is the best out there!

Yes, absolutely concur.

When I first heard of MD, Granger, Koons on the forum I thought it was a gimmick...but after doing my due diligence it is a great model. Just the lower dealer fees plus nickel and dime add-ons by my local dealer v. MD no hassle 1 low price made it so simple. I still have to experience the shipping to me but expect that will work out just fine as well.

Update...truck built and inspected...awaiting release to shipping (Stellantis gave MD 12.06 done on their invoice 4 weeks ago - hit their mark!)

Anthony says delivery 3-5 weeks from now but likely beats their 2.12 EDD.

When did it go into production/build?
