How many data elements are you keeping in the Db....is it something simplistic like a few bits...or are you breaking each build down capturing main points like trim, power train and so on? How granular do you go?
That amount of options I pull depends on the vehicle. For all the Hellcat powered vehicles I am breaking them down to all orderable options so that I can completely serialize each build and identify the number built exactly the same. I have entire build sheet for every vehicle stored/indexed though so I can search the complete list for combinations as needed I just haven't separated them beforehand.

For example, from the Brampton plant, they build all the Dodge Chargers and Challengers, police enforcer versions, etc. They also build the chrysler 300. I am not that interested it breaking down all the 300's but I have their complete build sheets stored should I ever decide to. For all the Hellcat powered Chargers/Challengers I have extracted all orderable options.

you should be able to use python and have it hit all the links for you, and essentially read the page to see if it exists

Exactly, I dont use python specifically but yes. The pages always exist, just process the resulting PDF's and then play nice against their servers. Since the result is always a PDF created on demand it is pretty intensive on their end and it is very easy to overload their servers with concurrent requests.

Pretty intense... I thought you may have access to a different API. It's not elegant (brute force and all) but what your are doing is pretty slick. Speaking for myself....a big thank you for all the information you are gathering for the forum members and the dedication you have to the task!

I ordered a SW Laramie on 06/21/2022, Scheduled 06/23/2022 went into production on 07/21/2022. I have received a build sheet, but not a window sticker. I didn't order the Multi Function Tailgate... so maybe that is what the hold up is on that one in particular...

I ordered the exact same thing on 06/27, but still no movement. I only got the VIN # and that's it - everything else just says TBD. I don't think there's any rhyme or reason on the way they do their orders that we can guess at.

I've signed up for text updates on the order tracker, but I still can't help myself to check the status every day. I feel like a dumb lab rat that keeps pushing the button for treats even though I just get zapped with electricity every time. :LOL:

I ordered my Limited 6/10, went to D1 on 6/27 with estimated ship date of 8/1, then it changed to 8/4. Hopefully that means my truck will be built next week, but who knows for sure.

Vehicle built on 7/9/22. Truck actually shipped on 7/29. Spent 3 weeks at New Boston waiting to be loaded on the train. Apprx Delivery is 8/19. 6 weeks from truck completion to delivery. Seems a bit long?

Mine just went to scheduled on August 1st, but it doesn't say when it's scheduled for. Does the Ram tracker not typically provide that?

Ask your dealer for an updated POC, it should show an estimated ship date.

Dealer says production is scheduled for 9/2 which is about a month from scheduling date. Then it's another 6-8 weeks for it to be delivered. Seems a bit long for delivery - is that what most others have been experiencing?

See the chart in this post. There are "WS to Lot" durations by state. That's how long you can expect as an average, once it has a Window Sticker.

Depends on where it is going. Mine was built on 7/6, and estimated delivery is next week. Depends on how it's being delivered and luck.

Anybody else's truck delivery affected by the current rail worker strike/worker shortage situation? Mine has been stuck on a rail car outside of Gallup, New Mexico for nearly a month. Ram keeps pushing back the delivery estimate. Hope Sept still has decent incentives.

Mine shipped on July 17th. I've been checking daily. It just got bumped a 2nd time, 2 more weeks to Aug 29th. A month after it was originally supposed to be delivered. I ordered one (long.story, identical order with minor changes) a day prior to this order date - that one has been at the dealer for over 2 weeks. Where are these trucks?

Weird, I ordered mine the same date you did yours. Went into schedule on 7/18, and was completed and sent for shipment on 8/3. Right now is sitting at the shipping yard waiting on a rail car (according to my SA).

It’s crazy how there is no rhyme or reason for Ram orders.
