Yes I was very surprised. When I ordered this the dealer said it could be 3 months or so.Wow! that was quick! I have never ordered a vehicle & got it that quick.

Took me about 2 weeks to get the VIN. I did not bug them about it (Granger), they just sent me an email when it was assigned. Order date is 3/30/22, VIN assigned 4/11.May 2 ordered a 3500 drw and still don’t have even a VON. 2 weeks. Is that normal? Dealer “claims” that the order was accepted. I’m sadly not a patient person.
Oh, hi all!
You are not. VON was issued the moment the order was sent to the order system. VIN was issued a few days following. Here’s my timeline:I’m trying to be patient but feel dealer is not up to speed. My mistake for using this dealer. To me, once an order is submitted, and accepted, a von would be created. Maybe I’m thinking wrong?
I don't think that is correct. Unless she signed some paperwork that stated this was non-refundable I bet if push come to shove you could get it back. I know you stated you are not patient but there is such a low amount of inventory now that this is really about the best way to get what you want right now.I paid a deposit which they promptly cashed. They claim non refundable. It was really the wife who really wanted it. Did it while I was at work. I would never do a non refund
No website - your dealer ordering system is what you need to get/find the status. I’m chomping at the bit since mine is ‘shipping’ and I’m trying to figure out how long they take to come out of Mexico. I’ve talked to HQ and they say it's in the shipping stage. I’ll just call the dealer and get an actual shipping status code.Happy days! FCA was able to pull my von and provide a vin!. Now to determine what status it's in. Is there a website that updates the status?
Yeah when I zoomed in on the satellite view I could see where they produce vans as well. Just down the road they make Freightliner semi's too. I didn't realize that Daimler owned them too.Everything leaving the Saltillo Ram & Engine plant , rides the train, including trucks & engines
Right next door is the RAM VAN plant
The Vans are too tall to travel in anything but a Railroad Flat Car or a semi trailer, many of them travel by semi trailer to a ship that is Docked on the East Coast of Texas
Ordered mine in March 3500 dually still waitingIt does not matter which Ram you order
1500, 2500 - 5500, it does not matter except where it is built
It does not matter if it is a Tradesman or a Laramie Limited, it does not matter
What is determining timing right now is whether the Options use Microchips or not
Some things that need microchips are:
Windshield Heads Up Display
Digital Rear Mirror
360 View system
Optional Camera System
etc.
If you think that you have been waiting to long
There is a person in Australia that has been waiting for a year this month & no one at his dealership is willing to dive deep & find out why there is a hold up
Last I read they will not start builds on the 23 until all of the ordered 22 are completed.. Depending on what options you added to the truck, based on what I have read and past build times do to lack of parts you may not see that truck for another six to ten months...Hello y'all,
Anymore insight on order times? I placed an order for a 2023 2500 megacab diesel on October 11th. I have received the order confirmation but nothing since. Any info would be appreciated.
