No. I sold my 2019 when I was made an offer that ultimately resulted in me essentially selling it for what I paid for it (I got a steal when I bought it new). At the time, I didn't think it would be a big deal because the Ram dealer told me I'd have my new truck by October. But, as you know all too well, that was a mothertrucking lie.
there is a delmonico red limited sitting on the lot at Hagans’s Dodge in Morrilton Arkansas. call Jeff Hagan and tell him Paul Murph sent you

I just checked and my truck VIN that is in shipping is listed for sale on my dealers website. Wtf?
It’s the same thing dealers used to do with newspaper ads. They would list vehicles with pictures and when you showed up to test drive they would always say “Sorry, it just sold right before you got here. But let me show you this other one that is almost just like it except…” The vehicle was probably never on their lot. It was just to get you on their lot for an opportunity to sell you something. Law of large numbers.

My thoughts also. The few times I've set foot inside a dealership they would try and sell my the urinal cake from the mens bathroom if they could.

Just out of curiosity. Checked my dealer‘s website. They are listing mine
:unsure: Are they somewhat honest…..or do I have bad taste and they don’t think anyone else would be interested in my truck?!?!!?

Spoke with ram chat today they are escalating my case to the tracking team. Truck had a build sheet on 12/24 and has had no status change since then. They agreed that 3 weeks was a little excessive so fingers crossed the truck starts to move

Got to go take a look at her today. Sadly, the bank dragged its feet on sending the funds so I have to wait until tomorrow to pick it up and bring her home. But my god, is it just.. B e a utiful. Thaat Granite Crystal on a Night Edition is just... so good.

Though, it is going to be a fun first day driving it as its currently projected to snow around 8 inches tonight.... Lol. The dearlship was nice enough to park it inside tonight on their showroom floor, so its out of the snow and cold for at least another day.

Got me so jelly! Mine’s a granite crystal night edition too. It’s on train somewhere right now. Hopefully not much longer now

So they contacted twin oaks, put a "hot" ticket on my truck. They responded and said, "a few days"

I texted my salesman about doing this. This was his response- “Just got it hot tagged”. Wonder how long this will take now.
