Start of 2023 Production

[cmejatt]

Salesman told me the package contents. Same as 23 for a Limited.

Yeah so only package I keep questioning is adding tech package & Digital cluster.

I custom ordered Laramie with tech package / and Level B equipment. When I go to website for 2023 I’m forced to add digital cluster for $250 which is what I want.

But rep told me I cannot have the tech package and digital cluster together.. makes no sense to me . He said it’s either I get tech package for $1,095 or get digital cluster for $245. For 2023 model on website you HAVE TO add tech package to get digital cluster.

I asked to call and confirm. he stated he called national rep and that’s what it is for 2024.
I still find it hard to believe . Wish someone can confirm if my sales guy ****ed up or not.

I only asked about Limited. It could be that the cluster is part of tech package. On a Limited, the trailer brake controller is a separate option, and so is the bed utility group. Both of those are part of the Elite package, so you can not order them once you choose Elite. That's the problem ordering now, pre-production, they don't have any info when ordering, just a screen of check boxes. This is a picture of what the salesman sees. He would have to click more info on every line.

Hey just curious how long it takes for a build sheet to show once in production. Mine went into production on June 19th and the tracker on this thread shows I'm in E. It looks like a build sheet is available, but when I click on it, it displays... Ooop, try again later.

I had thought the build sheet came first, to build it by, but was told it is generated after build is complete.

Makes sense why it doesn't show then

Thanks!

That doesn't make sense. It was 22 days on mine from Build Sheet to Window Sticker. That's one of the fields in Triple_B's posts (BStoWS). Also, that's consistent with info from the tracker at Ram. Build sheet first, then "In Production", then "Built". That's how mine was. I was able to see the build sheet before the window sticker.

I was told I was wrong, that the build sheet is generated after the build. The window sticker isn't generated until it passes all inspections. Some go from BS to WS same day, and others can take days until they pass inspections depending on repairs.

Looks like my build sheet is the only one on the 2023 tracker (from post #1 on this thread) that doesn't open. Maybe just a link issue that will resolve over night or something. The link is there, just doesn't open a BS.

 

[6of36]

Is this the link you used? I think I have seen others that didn't work. I just tried this link with my last VIN and it worked

Hey that link worked for me, thank you. Unfortunately it shows what I thought, I may have got screwed out of the 26 gal tank. I asked specifically about the tank size as I would have been satisfied with 26 but definitely didn't want 23 gallon...I would have paid the extra for the 33 gal at that point. BS shows 23 gallon.

Yup happened to me 26 to 23 gallon. Honestly, I just got home from driving over a 1000 miles and I didn’t really mind stopping when I did. It was time for a stretch. The biggest issue I see would be when I tow the camper. I will probably get a jerry can with a bracket in the bed for towing.

Thank you very much for the update and tracking throughout the process, I really appreciate it so much

Seems from reading online that 2024 is another carryover MY with 2025 being the refresh. While I have zero complaints with my 2023, I do find it curious that they’re gonna continue to plug along without a refresh when all the other half tons have been refreshed / redone.

24 is the last year for the Hemi. I don't want a turbo. I want my engine to last.
