Ram 1500 orders - Tell Us About Yours!

Put my order in on May 24 and it shipped yesterday. A Quad cab Big horn , the night edition, trailer backup and 360 camera, I6 engine 3.55 rear , level 2. ARE Cap already ordered and front receiver.
 
TV News from Detroit yesterday reported that Stellantis is reducing its Warren truck assembly down to 1 shift for the month of July to ”realign production with sales”.
WDIV channel 4 Detroit yesterday.
 
Tried to order mine 2 weeks ago. 1500 Laramie flame red. Sea salt interior, group 2, 33 gall tank, trailer tow group, and air suspension. Dealer called me yesterday to tell me the rejected it because you can’t get the flame red with air suspension. That makes no sense
 
I am retired now and have a 2016 Toyota Tacoma sport 4x4, I also purchased a 19' travel trailer that weighs 5,100 lbs. The taco can tow it but strains to keep it at 62 mph with rpm below 3K and slows down going over the coastal mountains. Now that Ram has the new hurricane I6 engine with more HP and Torque than other V8s and V6s and better MPG how could I refuse. Plus it has lots of bells and whistles for towing trailers.

I ordered my new truck 8/15/2024 since there are none like it in the USA to purchase and will be tracking its assembly on the Ram.com website. I have attached the build and price sheet for your information. I negotiated a price of $73,019 which is without any sales tax since Oregon has none and doesn't include the closing cost of registration and title. I have received a $1,000 incentive from Consumer Reports website that is from Stellantis as well as a $500 incentive from Ram for disabled veterans. Apparently any incentives issued from Ram can be applied to my order from date of order to acceptance of the truck so the highest incentive released for the next 2-3 months will get applied. Right now Ram is offering a $3,000 incentive which is the highest one so far. Holiday season is approaching so hopefully there will be a higher incentive coming out that I can apply.

That means my present truck price including all the incentives is 73,019-1,000-500-3000=$68,519.

I just wished Ram still offered the Hydro blue color, only other blue is the Forged Metallic Blue.

I will also be buying a tall canopy like the Leer 122 or ARE TW series. Any lessons learned or suggestions from you folks with these tall canopies?

what are you using the canopy for?
 
I usually carry my folded 12' inflatable catamaran, motor, wood seats and boxes for the ropes, anchors, electric bikes, firewood and crab pots when I travel with the travel trailer. I also load groceries and other goodies when shopping. I like the secure added storage the canopy offers plus the added height so I don't scrape my bald head loading and unloading cargo. The height also allows for my bikes to stand upright. Here in Oregon it rains a lot so having the bed covered protects the cargo I carry around.

ah i see. for your use case that should be fine. i've seen a lot of those types in the past 3 weeks on the road to Arctic and quite honestly... despite their functions they look quite funny lol
reminded me of those popemobile lol

Has anybody placed an order for a 2025 1500 in August, if so what is your present status?
All I have seen for the past 3 weeks is "Order Confirmed"
 
I tried to order a flame red Laramie last month. Was told they couldn’t order it. So on 9-3 I order a flame red/black Rebel.
 
I track my order on Ramtrucks.com, I created an account and added my order number for easy tracking. I also did my build & price while in my account so it is there for reference.

Once your order is placed by the dealer you should get an email with your order number.
 
Doesn't seem to be much consistency with the ordering process in terms of timeline. Some are taking 6 weeks and others taking 6+ months.
