Well if you're not angry then I'm not doing my job. Ok, how about this: Here's the build sheet for a truck that appears to be identical to your order. It's in the 542 group, and it was built on December 19.

Yeah pretty close to the same build. must be a relative of someone in management

"Special Scheduling Condition VII" that explains it. the rest doesn't make much sense unless this is Fleet order from Avis Budget Rent-a-Car

while we're on the subject of stupid questions, I have one of my own.
Anyone tip their transporters? Is this common practice? Curious if I should, now that I'm getting a little closer to receiving.

What dealership did you order from (I assume in VA)? I’m in VA and ordered from Farrish.

I was always told "there are no stupid questions" but here is a stupid question. What does the acronym POC stand for? Thanks

I was wondering the same thing , thanks for asking

Crickets for me too - I ordered a Longhorn back in August. About ready to just give up and buy a Limited from the lot. It won't have all that we ordered but this is just kinda ridiculous now.

I hate living in this new communist society where everything is in short supply and the waiting is so long. How do I get into the Politburo so I can get the good stuff like The Big Guy? Heck, I'd even settle for some good ice cream at this point...

Well it’s not like they aren’t building Longhorns. According to the Ram Tracker they built 30 today. BTW. Like your “special edition” Ram. Lol.

Nice. Maybe ours will come on the same truck. I was gonna order from Koons, and I called the sales guy twice. He told me each time he’d call me back about a custom order but never did.

When you look at you assigned VIN# look at the last six digits, of those the first three digits is your group.

TOP CHARTS UPDATED

The TRX is badass, but I can’t get around the 5 mpg, especially with Brandon’s gas prices and the need for premium gas. Plus, it doesn’t have Ramboxes, which I love.

I saw one of those at the dealership yesterday. It had sparkly flakes in the paint! That was a very big truck. I didn't know how big those damn things are until you stand up next to one. It's no wonder you guys can't get over 5 Mi a gallon was something that big but she sounded awesome when she got fired up in front of me.
I tried talking to one of the service managers yesterday about what the price would be to put a 33 gallon tank in this one and he told me they have no service manual for the 2023s yet and that I should ask again in about a month. Sounds like BS to me, as I told him that I'd seen on YouTube, and on the other thread here on 5th gen that it can be done, at least on a 22. I guess we'll see how it goes. Sure wish I had clicked that little box for the $445 though:-( a lesson for those of you looking to build put the 33 gallon on you won't be sorry otherwise, she's still a badass backcountry!

Long story short test a water puddle before you drive threw it in FL. I thought it was just a little puddle not a 3ft sand hole so 2wd was the wrong thing to drive threw it with. Went to put in 3wd and the truck said nope. And a rock slashed my tire also.

That is not good bro. And did I miss the update later on that you are not able to get above 1500 RPM? Why would that be? Is there something wrong with the transfer case?
