New factory order, 2017 Longhorn

TerraNewf · Jan 12, 2017

Just ordered a new 2017 Longhorn, CC, 6.4 bed fully loaded. Colour is Pearl White. I thought it wold be a nice colour but haven't seen any on the highway. Wondering if any members have this colour and if they can post some pictures on here. Tuck not expected to be delivered before March. The only option left out was the CD player and Ram box which I was told isn't available for the 6.4 bed.

i just did a search on ramtrucks.com for crew cabs with the 6'-4" box and ram box and within 75 miles of me there are 17 that match that configuration so I think the dealer he ordered from was misinformed?

oh damn, you know i really am starting to see dealers as a bunch of brain dead zombies with silver tounges who only know vehicles by dollar signs but couldnt tell you the first thing about trucks.

It was available on 6.4' beds in the past, so if it isn't now, they made a change. Its available for 6.4' foot beds on the Ram website when I build one.

I am guessing the dealership is mistaken, and he needs to go in and ask them why he can't get the Rambox in the longer bed if its available on "on the lot" trucks and at Ram's website. I love my Ramboxes, I can only imagine the even larger ones on the longer bed truck.

Regardless of which direction you go, congratulations on the new truck!!!

Maybe it's a Canadian thing but my brochure says the Rambox isn't available in the Longhorn 6.4 bed. Sales guy pointed it out to me when ordering. Maybe it's a trim level thing, weight restriction?

Thanks bud, when I go to Chrysler.ca and build the truck it shows that it isn't available, and the brochure clearly states not with6.4 bed in a Longhorn. I would have ordered them if I could so I'm a little disappointed. CC and 6.4 was a must for me.

TerraNewf · Jan 12, 2017

Just to clarify that the top two trim levels (Longhorn and Limited) with CC and 6.4 bed does not offer the Ram Box option. All lower trim levels have it available, go figure.

LOL, I did consider that but love the Longhorn trim. I'd had to order a trim level below the Bighorn to get the 44-45 TC. I thought for sure some members would have this colour of Ram to post.

maybe it is a canadian or trim level thing. None of them were longhorns. Some laramie, sport, and bighorn.

quietpeen · Jan 12, 2017

scratch the trim level thing, must be a canadian thing. there is a longhorn at my local dealer with the 6.4 bed and ram boxes.

Beautiful, I see your dad's has the ram box. Is it a 5.7 or 6.4 Bed?
