Order Tracking

What’s up Doc, welcome! Any specific questions tailored to what you want to know could be asked on a separate post if you wanted to make one, but regarding your planned order and order tracking:
- Trucks w Ramboxes are backed up, just barely beginning to be produced, slowly. Requires patience.
- Just heard from @Soup who ordered a Limited w offroad who also waited a long time. Requires patience.
- Ecodiesel is not available, and if you search for my posts on the topic you’ll see I recommend LOTS of careful research and ultimately waiting until a newly designed version of that engine comes out. Do some searches for “catastrophic” and ecodiesel and you’ll see why. I personally own an ecodiesel and am switching to a Hemi w/eTorque for towing.

Hope that helps.
That does help. I appreciate you taking the time to respond!
 
Interesting article. How about this solution:

Years ago we were stationed in Europe and my wife bought a Volvo. We had the option of picking up our car directly from the factory in Gotenberg; you fly up, get picked up, stay the night, get a sweet factory tour, and get a Grade A inspection of your new vehicle. When happy you get the keys and ride a ferry south to drive your new car home. Detroit is no Sweden but it would still be a ton of fun. Would you guys do it? No train waits!
That's how I got my S550 in Germany at the factory. Drove around Europe for 2 weeks then gave it back to them to ship. Few weeks later I picked it up at my local dealership. That would be an awesome idea for Ram to copy.
 
Quick question for those whose trucks have already been built and are waiting for delivery or are already in posession of their truck.
How long were you in I status, JS or JB status, and then KZ status?
I am in I status awaiting inspection for a few days now and just wondering if this is normal or if I should be concerned (which I am anyway).

Mine was in I status for less than a day. I was in JB for about the same <1 Day, then I've been in KZ for almost a week, looks like I'll be shipping out any day. Seems like I status for more than a couple days may be an issue??? You've only been in I for 3 days, I wouldn't be too worried yet.

If it's in I on Monday I will start making some calls. Thanks.
 
Looks like I finally moved out of C, D, and D1 hell. I checked online this morning and I now have a window sticker, only took 101 days since ordering. Now hopefully my truck doesn't have issues with extended transportation time to WI.
If your getting your truck in WI most likely "Moore Transportation" will be the semi delivering
 
Is there rail load site at the Jefferson North Plant? Haven't seen any other trucks go here. It's where some Jeeps are manufactured right?

I've been looking at this for 2 months and never noticed the delivered vehicles section! Thanks :D
 
After 4 and half days in I status I am now in JB status. Most trucks have recently gone through the inspection stage in 3 to 12 hours so I have some concerns about the length of time it took mine to get through. I'll have to go through it with a fine tooth comb when it shows up one of these days.

I have been in inspection for over 2 weeks now
 
Snowman, isn’t your truck due to be built today? I’m counting on coattailing you, since our trucks are so similar.
 
I've been in JB for almost 2 weeks. Nobody knows what the heck is going on.
