Thank you so much for the update on the WS. You guys have made it a game every morning looking for my BS and every night looking for the WS! .

Now I need to harass the dealer on ETA

Not really, since I already made my choices, lol. I'm switching from a loaded 2017 Rebel that only has 850 lbs of payload, which turns out is not a lot when considering an RV. The 5th Gens added 300 lbs to the base model, so I'll get some improvement. Then opted not to do the sunroof or eTorque (but kept in most of the rest!)

Was just thinking from data perspective, if possible, to be nice addition to what you're able to do already...which is more than enough! :)
850 is definitely not much payload at all! 4 guys a case of beer and you are pushing it, forget putting anything in the bed or even hooking a trailer up! I struggle with the 1247 of my TRX. Tongue weight of my toyhauler is 1200 lbs but if use my WDH and load the garage backwards to help take weight off the truck I get it down, there is just a fine line between too much and not enough with that soft suspension. Hoping to pick up something smaller for the TRX to tow that I can still cram a few toys in.

How do you have 1247 on yours?? Mine only has 1108!

If it's me and 3 of my best friends 850 lbs is not enough. ;)

Seriously though, the rambar and the beadlock wheels account for almost all of that difference and I didn't take either of those options.

I noticed on my build sheet says "Lower Two Tone Paint" which is what I ordered but the sticker does not mention anything about Two tone it only lists "Granite Crystal Metallic Clear–Coat Exterior Paint". Should i be concerned that it's wrong?

Trying to be a little optimistic, while not really holding my breath at the same time. But I got an email from ramcare today stating that all the parts have been gathered for my vehicle to be built. Maybe it means I'll hit D1 status before Independence day.
I got that same email and I checked with Aaron at Mark Dodge for the most recent POC. It confirmed that I am now in D1 status, estimated ship date of 1-29-22.

Not sure what you are looking at, but currently 5thgen is only waiting on 18 window stickers, so there arent many left to find as of today.

574 Member Orders, 348 built (BS), 330 shipped (WS) already.
My Vin 4NN229768 had a build sheet late Dec, and no WS yet. Spoke with my dealer and he told me that it is in JB status waiting on options to be added.

Anyone think they are waiting to do the 10th Anniversary Editions with the Patriot Blue and Ramboxes in a large group? Especially the ones that look like Rams marketing material?

Well I took a closer look at the tracker sheet last night. I really shouldn't of. If I'm doing it right there are 8 of us with 6'4" Laramie Crew Ecodiesels. 0 have been built; including @ITSHUGE that I think ordered around first of July? I wonder if they have built any; or is it just site members striking out?

There have been a total of 37 of these built (Laramie, Crew Cab, 6'4 bed, EcoDiesel), out of 206 total ordered.
