APRIL 2021 Factory Order members

Just got off phone with dealer. Ordered 4/8 went to D1 as of 5/6 and still there. I’m really hoping to get the build soon. Dropping my trade this Monday. 47k plus the 4,300 I’ll save on tax. It’s like I’m getting 51,300 for my 2020 Silverado duramax with 27,500 miles

What state charges 9% sales tax on vehicles? Ours is 3% in NC.

 

[Croaker]

Los Angeles, California. 9.5%

…and there’s why people are moving from Los Angeles to NC.

 

[Sal731]

That’s exactly why people are moving from nyc also

Lol. That’s why North Carolina is awesome. I’ll be there in 13 years as soon as I retire

Ordered 4-10 vin 766773. Still waiting for parts to arrive.

 

[rsgard]

3 weeks from order and all parts have been received and should be entering production soon

It sounds like orders are accelerating, especially since you have a fairly tech-heavy build. Hopefully that’s good news for everyone.

This gives me hope, I ordered 2 days after yours and similar build.

I ordered a day before him and this is the answer I got from Ram Chat this morning....."Thank you, I can see your order is in the scheduling stage, once all of the required parts for your order are accounted for it will be sequenced for production!"

I went ahead and pinged RAM chat and got the same thing:

Thank you so much for holding. I am showing all of the materials needed to start the build process have been received. The vehicle should be entering the build process soon. Currently no Dealer ETA has been provided.

I asked if that was D1 Status and she said yes it was. I will check back next week.

 

[New1500customram]

I order 4/13 and still waiting on parts. Only thing i can think of is maybe i have more options that take micro chips?

 

[GadgetMason]

Can you guys who received trucks recently, or are scheduled to in the next few weeks,, post how long it took to get your truck after order?

And whether you had Adv Safety Group or Limited Level 1?

Trying to figure out whether to try and add to an already placed order (if not too late). I am being told it might add a month.

All my info is below…

 

[GadgetMason]

Ordered 4/29. VIN and D status on 5/3. Kind of wishing I would have waited and gotten a 2022.

Bottom line, not much diff (except a year newer) downside is the first 2022s will likely not hit the streets until September-October.

I was about 18days in D1… but I think that’s accelerating.

Only thing - just renewed my 19 Limited's registration - $468.96 for 1 year in North Carolina - but at least I won't be able to see the road through the floor like I could from Pennsylvania salt.

$468????

Yes that right - NC (like some states) taxes vehicles as personal property - some of it goes to the county, some to the municipality based on the appraised value of the vehicle. Mine is now appraised at $ 47,260.00. It will drop a little every year. IT PAYS TO DRIVE A JUNKER IN NC !

States like PA where I am from steal from you on your property tax, mostly on the school tax end to support the overpaid teachers.
IT PAYS TO LIVE IN A DUMP OR RENT IN PA !

I still figure I am ahead down here as I don't shovel snow.

It all has to come from somewhere !

NH is sort of similar. There is no Sales Tax here, but the tags run at
$18 per $1000 of the Base Price the first year, $15 the Second, $12
the third, until they get down to the bottom. My 2008 RAM Big Horn
runs about $174/Yr now. That includes the Vanity Plate.
