Start of 2023 Production

How do you set up the Ram text updates?

When you order your truck, you should get an initial email from ram. There is a link to opt in for for texts towards the bottom of the email. I’ve only made it to D1 status so I only received one text so far and can’t vouch for how accurate or current texts are during the shipping and delivery. I would suggest to also contact dealer a few days after truck is built get an updated POC. Especially if traveling.

There it is! Thank you for the education.

He got you the answer before I logged back in. All the salesmen should tell people when they order about this option. I almost missed it myself.

There really is no rhyme or reason to the order of the builds I take it.

Not from our perspective. I’ve thought about paint grouping, certain builds, trims, and shipping. From this spreadsheet, I can’t make any sense of the order of picking a VIN. For what it’s worth, we are only looking at a small sample size of what is being built and it would be hard to see any correlations based on this spreadsheet.

I noticed something odd with the window stickers this weekend. Last Thursday I was able to retrieve my window sticker through www.chrysler.com but not ramdtrucks.com. It's the correct window sticker but later on Friday, I checked again and got the "a window sticker is not available" message no matter which link I used and in fact, get that same message if I try to pull up a window sticker from any entry on the tracking sheet. My truck will show up in it's own good time, subject to the whims of the factory and BNSF but I do wonder if the disappearance of the window sticker meant something.

You won't get much from a small sample size (like the tracker spreadsheet). On a grand scale, there appears to be some sense to what they do. Well, it doesn't make good sense - but there's a general pattern.
Ram moves through blocks of VIN groups on a consistent basis. For example, right now they're hitting the 650-653 groups really hard - they'll keep advancing into the 654-660 groups soon. But for any given group that they pass through, they only build some (or most) of them. They have a running backlog of older orders that they pick through at their leisure.

The window sticker servers have been jacked up since last Thursday. No new window stickers have shown up since then.

Took almost 8mo...I'm not holding my breath but at least it's a step in the right direction.

OMG! That's unreal. I don't get it. There's others who have ordered and received theirs in 1/8 of the time. I might have given up and bought something else, or one off a lot somewhere.

Found 438 Window Stickers tonight. 1 more forum member with a truck on the way! Congratulations to @clotagames

Once it changes to "In Production" how long does it usually take to get to the "Vehicle Built" status?

Around 3 days. Frame and paint take the longest. Assemply only takes about one hour. The factory goal for assembly is 55 per hour of finished trucks.

I "heard" it was the GT package that was the hold up.
It's a 2023 Laramie GT Sport...just about canceled to order a Rebel Lunar...(but the order bank only allowed 2WD hahahaha)

That's weird. There have been 54 Lunar Rebels built so far, and 100% of them are 4x4.

 

[Yzcr87]

Mine moved right along, 2 weeks from the day I placed the order til built. Estimated delivery is 6/21.

Things are really screwed up right now. You can only get a Laramie with a V8, if it is either 2wd or long bed.

I find 35 Laramies with 2wd that have the Pentastar engines. But you're right on the long-bed option - they're all Hemis.
