I will just sit tight and wait like everyone else. When I saw folks getting into build stage with order dates near mine I became prematurely excited. Thanks for the reality check.
"in transit" to ram chat doesn't mean that it has left Michigan yet, and that is probably why your dealer can't see it yet. It is out of the plant's hands but the carrier hasn't loaded it and left with it yet, or may still be loading other vehicles.
You can't just look for similar order dates, you also have to look for similar trims.
I guess it's possible there are two trains but our trucks were basically holding hands (mirrors?) going through the final stages so it's more likely the initial ETA of 6/23-7/7 got pushed back to 6/25-7/9 because when Aaron gave me my initial ETA on Saturday (6/19), he said it had not left Michigan yet. I was hoping that @Hemidakota's truck being in Arkansas yesterday meant we were close, but maybe we are on a separate train from his going "that" direction?
He said it is in Illinois, so if our trucks are indeed on the same train, then unfortunately it’s looking like the end of next week will likely be the earliest we can hope to take delivery.
I better be excited at least as long as I have been frustrated! haha
I agree on that.. a direct correlation between wait time and "New Truck Euphoria" time.. so maybe a few months worth rather than the typical 5-7 day high.
Do you have a build sheet yet? (I don't.)
I'm right there with you. First time for me to order a truck and looked everywhere and couldn't find exactly what I wanted. I'm not sure I will go through this process again but who knows what might happen in the future.
Any point in doing that? My order date was one day before yours but a very different trim level (cheap-o special lol). I'm not sure what escalation accomplishes, but I'm worried I am going to miss the window during which I could actually pick up the vehicle. I anticipated having it mid- to late-July but that isn't looking hopeful.
I've heard it might not do anything really. I didn't even ask them to escalate it, they just did it on their own when I asked for an update today. We'll see what they say when they reach out to me about it. I'm hoping mid to late July, too. Keeping my fingers crossed!
They will escalate after 45 days of D status but not sure if they really do anything.
My order was escalated on 6/7, next day they said all parts gathered. Its now 6/23 and has not moved since then. So i waited over 45 days to collect parts..next day, oh parts are gathered? I knew this was going to take along time to get my order anyway but think they have a had the parts but just put them on the higher end models because the are standard equipment not options
Love the ride - now to add all the crap I just bought for it... Started today with Ram rain deflectors. A bit of a pain, but love them. tomorrows project, Ramair CAI. Should be able to knock it out pretty quick.
New for me also, but to have a window sticker factory note that says “this vehicle was built especially for Wayne Anderson” was kinda exciting... May have to frame it.
