It really is a mind boggling thing to try and figure out. I ordered a 2500 Laramie with Night edition and Hemi a week before with Christmas 2021. It has been built and passed QC inspections since March 5th of this year. So that part only took 77 days (11 weeks). It is not a heavily option truck; being that I did not get any of the towing or safety tech groups. No sunroof. I did however get the cargo camera and the digital rear view mirror with camera, and I got power running boards. Otherwise, rather plain compared to some. Still waiting on a train ride from Mexico to Louisiana.
It was estimated 16-20 weeks for final delivery when I ordered it.
Dec 18 + 20 weeks = May 7th. So that is still possible. It could be delivered before then.
What's mind boggling is to see other's orders with all the tech groups and 5th wheel prep and sunroofs and literally EVERYTHING possible to click get built in a month, then delivered in less than a month after that. Nobody can figure it out. Especially frustrating if your truck is sitting there, ordered since December, then someone who ordered mid January has been driving around in their new heavier optioned truck since last week. I get a lot of this info from HDrams.com

Even though I still don't have my truck, I'm not out of the estimated time frame, and I keep telling myself once I get, I willl have it for good. All this waiting will be over soon.
