so my truck hit KZ yesterday but RAM chat says they no longer get any updates to track it and I have to go through the dealer. I contacted my dealer and he says he doesn't know anything yet and they will not know until the truck arrives at the Doremus rail facility in Newark NJ. have any of you had your trucks shipped through there? How long did it take to be put on a train and then how long until they arrived at your dealers? I'm figuring that's the main rail offloading facility for the tri-state area. It was built in about 3 weeks would hate to have it sit in Casey for another three or four weeks like I've seen some guys having to deal with. What was everybody's delivery experience in time tables to the New York area?

So for all the NY owners, if in lower NY and LI, our trucks all come in via rail to the vehicle rail yard in Doremus, NJ. (mine is scheduled to arrive on March 24). From it's arrival there ,how long until is arrived at you dealer? Does it sit there long, or for right on a carrier? Has anyone tracked that?

Getting close to your delivery date! Can’t wait to see it and also hear about your experiences with it. From your signature looks like it’s gonna be pretty darn nice. Ram boxes and pano roof will be on my next one!

Awesome. How do you like those running boards? I can’t decide which ones to buy. Need them soon since the rest of the fam has ttouble getting in and out. Lol
These are Westin R5’s I like them a lot. They are coming out with wheel to wheel R5’s but I couldn’t wait because of the Mrs. needed to get in and out of the truck. Took me about 45 mins to install.

Good to know. I’d prefer wheel to wheel.

Wheel to wheel R5’s are available from Westin. I think Amazon has them too. 81603BDE-D9F3-4F3D-BE5A-8A078365B7BE.png BA9FF56B-DCE8-4B4B-9566-25ED39DCE9F3.png

NYer here, just bought my black 2019 Bighorn on Feb 15th. Having the wheels powder coated black by a guy my friend at the dealer knows, and also planning to black out some of the emblems. I'll post pics when thats all done.

Did you get that powder coating done yet?

Can't decide between Max steel, granite, and now black. Was never a big fan of black but it looks sharp with the chrome. How does it look when not freshly washed? I know you'll love it but what's the dirt, swirls, etc. Does it appear more metallic black or more flat.
