Grab a beverage of your choice and read the thread I copied below. It's probably the most informative thread you'll find on 3.21 vs. 3.92. I wouldn't buy a new truck before reading this IMO.

An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

I hope this post will help to end the debate with facts and not opinions, and become THE post people refer to those who are having a hard time deciding. You already know that 3.92 is better for towing, and 3.21 gets better fuel economy, so I will talk about what you might not know Bottom line...

Thank you sir!!

Curious how you found out your truck made it on the train?

My dealer let me.know. still on the truck as far as I know

1 day to create the mold. 1 day to sand and seal the mold. 1 day to inject then 5 days to cure. 1 day split mold and sand. 1 day for inspection. 1 day installation. 1 day to laugh about passenger side not getting one.

After reading this board for 2 months, I have absconded my pair of insulated beverage holders from my soon-to-be-traded-in 2019 Big Horn. Just in case...

$2,490 if you use the promo code “payinfull”.

So, I just tell them in F&I that I can get this Max Care Warranty 8/125k online if I use the code 'payinfull', and they will match that $2490 price?

Trying to figure this out, posted my vin on the ram tracker. I type it in the fcacommunity and their is no results. The scatter plot chart that keeps getting uploaded seems to be user generated? Or is that obtained somewhere more official? My name was on it a few days ago. The sheet I received from the dealer says D1. Are there no more updates until the truck is off the assembly line on April 22nd? (If the estimate is accurate)

are there any more updates. No if you are indeed at D-1

the tracker will be updated when the truck gets off the assembly line
keep up with the dealer with a new poc once a week because some are reporting D-1 status is changing

Correct. You won't get a build sheet until truck has been build. Then it has a few more steps and statuses to go through before its shipped. Once shipped you should see a WS pop up here in the evening. The ESD is actually the date that it is supposed to ship from the mainline factory to the inspection yard and then usually the body vendor.

Depends on the dealer. They may or may not. If not, just get it through Ziegler.

Is D1 anything other than order confirmed?

I ordered it and the first correspondence a week later is this... D1.... Reading all the posts, there's a lot of potential at this point to be perpetually delayed, or have it built and ready to be shipped by ESD of 4/22

If you have an ESD of 4/22, then you shouldn’t expect anything until then. Your build sheet will probably be issued on (or around) 4/22. The ESD is the anticipated date that your truck rolls off of the assembly line - not shipping on a train.
To answer your previous question, the scatter chart is user-generated (by me), and contains member data only. Your name went on there to indicate where your order falls in the timeline. When your build sheet is issued, you’ll appear again as a scatter-dot.

Has anyone ever ordered a truck from a city over 200 miles away, or had your local dealership make a trade with another location? I’m stuck being impatient and having issues with my current truck and finding almost exactly what I ordered in Houston (I’m in Dallas) or other semi-distant cities.
I can probably limp along for another week or two with my current truck but not having a clear eta on my order is a little difficult…

This one has a build sheet (issued Monday 3/21). Still waiting for a WS. It's going to Mark Dodge. https://www.jeep.com/webselfservice/BuildSheetServlet?vin=1C6SRFPT1NN303372

I don't know if it matches what you are looking for or not. I needed (and ordered) the 33 gal tank. This one comes with the 26 gal tank. The factory said it is built and they cannot make any changes to it, so it gave me the opportunity to reorder and make a couple of other changes that I didn't care about in January but now need in March. Chances are it shows up in 2-3 weeks. It's a long shot for you, but just a heads up.

Yep, ordered mine from MD and I'm 1500 miles away. I know there are several other members here who live even farther away that have ordered with them, if you're in Texas it's a no brainer to get a quote.

Just heard back from my dealer that my truck is in JB status!

 

[jgc650i]

Even though still no WS, my dealer let me know the initial shipping information was finally populated. I'm in Western NY so truck will go by rail to Buffalo yard and then trucked to dealer in Finger Lakes region. Current info calls for transport to Buffalo by 4/3 and then trucked to dealer by 4/15. Soooooo, for me so far: ordered 1/4/22, VIN 1/5/22, ESD 3/17//22, BS 3/21/22 (with server update delay), WS ??, Rail Delivery Est 4/3/22, Dealer Delivery Est 4/15/22.

Welcome to the forum. Yes, many in this forum have ordered trucks from Mark Dodge in Louisiana. I highly recommend you build the truck you want on the Ram Trucks site so you have the list of everything you want and then call Sandi, Aaron or Renee at Mark Dodge. Discuss what you want and ask questions. When I called Sandi, she informed me the the Technology Group was available for my truck even though it was not available on the Ram Trucks site. I highly doubt you will be disappointed in the price they give you. And, it’s my understanding that they deliver trucks to Houston at no cost. You have nothing to lose, give them a chance to give you the best price you will find anywhere. Of course, if you decide to order a truck, then it will take time for the build process. But you will get exactly what you want and it will be worth the wait. I’m sure they also have a ton of trucks on their lot to choose from, if you decide to go that route.

Thanks for the info. I have ordered exactly what I want from a local dallas dealership (Limited, Night Edition, Sunroof, Level 1, 4x4, Granite) with a current estimate of being 6 weeks out. I found exact replica at a dealership in MS and Houston, and considering calling the dealerships and seeing if I can find a reason to buy those rather than wait for my order.
Appreciate all the feedback from everyone!

The reason to wait is price. Mark dodge is several percent below invoice. I'm about $7,000-$8,000 less than MSRP. Meanwhile here in Cali, dealerships are charging $5,000 more than MSRP on trucks sitting on the lot.
