Damn, that's one huge gas tank! Pretty sure you meant liters, but thanks for the Monday morning laugh.

Sounds like the truck you want is very close to what mine is. At this point it will likely be a 2022 model, as they stopped 2021 model production back at the end of April or early May last year. Some of the options packages have changed for '22. The Technology Group has been combined with the Limited Level 1 Equip. Group. So it's not listed as a separate option.

Hi, Thanks for the reply. Sorry it is a 33 gallon fuel tank. So on our listings it has the tech pack seperate to level 1 group For the 2021. So is the 22 model all combined in the level 1 equipment pack now. We still have no word on this truck, still saying order and in the queue to be built at the factory.

I hear ya. I ordered my 2018 3500 and it took 12 weeks, but it was worth the wait. I got exactly what I wanted. I flew up to Idaho to take delivery from Dennis Dillon and made a nice trip out of it. Patience is a virtue

A true optimist.

My 3500 BH was scheduled to ship yesterday, I ordered it Sept 9th... I feel everyone's pain. I was told it will take 5 more weeks to make it to my dealer in CA.

Ordered my 3500 Laramie on 17 Nov 21. I got a vin about three weeks later. The dealer told us on 20 Jan it was supposed to ship on 1 Feb. We were told it was in Eagle Pass, TX on 8 Feb and on the train in Wyoming on the 15th.

It is now February 26, and I received my fourth "estimate" of delivery which is now 02/23 - 03/07. Truck arrived at Port of Baltimore (6 hours away) 01/22 but still not delivered to my dealership. Ram cares says the don't have any info on why. BS alarm going off. Ordered in September coming up on 6 month wait.

Ordered on Jan 5th, just got the estimated shipping date of Mar. 18th. I'm guessing a few weeks to deliver from Michigan to Ontario.

My new one is in transit to the dealer. Was on the dealer webpage but wasn’t in stock yet. Salesman said should take no more than 2 weeks.

We shall see.

are these VINs trackable for Canadian orders? I'm getting nothing through that FCA link currently

We only have to dealers who import here in Aus in Brisbane. It would normally only take 5-6 months but we are not certain what is going on.we ordered a 1500 limited with night edition, technology pack,limited 1 equipment pack, tow pack, 124 gallon fuel tank, multi function tailgate, sunroof, bec Utility pack , sprayin liner, and a couple of other things. Bywhat we are reading you can’t get the tech pack yet. Is the true. Are ram back to full production with all there chips.

FWIW, when I ordered in December, they wouldn't allow me to order the technology pack because they couldn't get chips etc. However, IU would have ordered the 124 gallon fuel tank you listed if i could

If you're in the States and not getting anything either then it sounds like we're not even close to production yet. Though I was told my shipping date is Mar 18th

uscpsycho55 · Mar 3, 2022

On the FCA community lookup site linked in this thread it says my status is D to D1 when I print the build sheet. Not sure what that means.

When I received the VIN it said my estimated delivery date was 4/1, which is hard to believe. Ordered a Rebel GT on 2/5, mono white, no real bells and whistles other than bedliner and 33 gal tank. Maybe that's why it could be quick?

uscpsycho55 · Mar 3, 2022

Contacted ram cares and they say the truck is shipping with an ETA between 3/10 and 3/22. That doesn't seem right since I ordered it on 2/5. Whenever I ask the dealer something they say that they'll get it to me, then never do, so I can't ask them.

My truck finally showed up on the VIN database so I believe I'm near a build.

Forgot to update this thread; my truck came in late last week! Of course, now I have some questions, but I'll see what I can find in existing threads first.

Thanks! Now I need to get some black lug nuts. Why Ram uses chrome lug nuts on black wheeled Night edition is a mystery.

Is your order a 1500 ?
If it is, then when the Body Vendor is finished with any add ons, it goes back to the factory to get the Final Inspection.

Then they put it in Transit Status & as soon as a semi load of Rams is scheduled to go to South Ontario.
That truck will cross the Sarnia Bridge with a load & it will make stops along the way, to drop off trucks at dealerships.
IF no semi drivers & trucks are not available, they will load it on a freight train & that will likely take a bit longer
