2025 Ram 1500 Order Updates

Pikeman_66 said:
You’re in good shape, your order has moved at light speed compared to most of ours on here.
I ordered mine in January didn’t get D status for months and just last week got to D1.

Did you call your dealer for the estimated ship date? Curious when yours is.

The sad part is, as much as we all ***** about this, we still stick with Ram. It enables this poor behavior. I suppose some people are turned off and look elsewhere - at least the sales numbers seem to indicate that. you'd think with being down 25% from last year (or whatever the number is) that they'd try harder.

This is not the same company I ordered my 2019 from (literally and figuratively)...

My hats off to you guys for putting up with this!

No I haven’t yet, been busy with work and just have not had the time why they are still there. I will try and get a call out in the next day or so Pete. I’m almost afraid to ask to be honest.

I emailed my dealer earlier this morning, they’re usually super quick to respond, haven’t heard back yet though. I got a delivery date of October 2 on the ram build tracker and the truck went into production on the 25th. I feel like that’s an extended wait period for a truck that should take less than a week to actually build. Regardless I’ll let you know what date I get from my dealer.

I agree - doesn't make sense. The thought that they are just sitting on them, just in case there are quality issues, is the only thing that makes sense - but that's such a poor way to run a business. They're going to spend the money to build these units, and then hold them instead of getting paid. the bean counters must be going nuts. The time value of money is working against them. two months to deliver a built truck is not reasonable. Not communicating what is going on is not reasonable. The whole situation is.... well, you know.

@dammitbobby @Pikeman_66

This seems to be what they did with the other trims. They had a few "being built" for days (I think it was ~27 days) prior to them opening the floodgates.

If that's the case, Tungsten floodgates should open here VERY soon.

It might be that they do some sort of rigorous QC/QA that takes 3+ weeks. Not sure. But the data supports that the floodgates will open next week.

I'll try and update the data I post in the other thread tonight. Probably not much to look at, but we'll see.

I’m not really sure what else it would be besides a rigorous quality test because if they’re sitting on them in case there are issues they will never be able to tell they’re issues unless they get them in the hands of consumers.
 
There was a discussion somewhere here about floor mats. It looks like the "all weather" rubber mats are available with tradesman and big horn, but don't show up for other trims. I had WeatherTech in my last Ram, and was pretty happy with them. Other folks here said they really liked the Mopar mats. I found part number 82216607AA for the mats, and they are $100 less then WeatherTech. Anybody have any thoughts or experience with the Mopar mats?

I seen on one of the parts sites I was on last night that there are now a lot of 2025 accessories being listed now. I was looking for some molded mud flaps for a 2025 limited. And they had several listed.

Right now they are VERY cheap direct from Mopar and you can have them shipped directly to a dealer for free. About $70 total.

Ok, I'm not just a jerk. Apparently JD Power agrees with my assessment of Ram customer service. There are charts towards the bottom of the article. TLDR - Ram ranks dead last, by a good amount.

They're lucky they have amazing trucks and reliability rankings!

I agree with that very poor customer service on orders placed
 
Has anyone seen actual build progress? Seems like "scheduled for production" for many and feels like a holding pattern (also the Nationwide search also doesn't seem to be changing at least for my Laramie build). Hopefully, production ramps up and we see trucks moving soon.

I reached out to my dealer yesterday and was told that my truck is now showing that it will go into production on 8/10. Baby steps!

This is very encouraging to me. I will update if my dealer has similar news for me as I just reached out to him.

Just got an update from my dealer, my build is in final inspection and set to be shipped on Monday 8/5. Will get a more solid delivery estimate when my vehicle ships.
