2026 RAM RHO Order/Schedule/Build Thread

[TXModus]

That is pretty fast. I think I have that beat. Dealership called and the truck was delivered yesterday. Next week, the Power boards will be installed. I will be picking it up after the Holiday weekend, probably the 2nd or 3rd. Christmas came way early.

Too funny, my running boards are in my garage ready for install

I just went with the stock running boards for now. Plan to upgrade to the RC power running boards at a later date.

The stock boards, or some of the more popular ones are very nice. We have had the power boards on the last couple of trucks. They work well, but it was a tough call on keeping them.

Technically, you win the race.

I've had the OEM power running boards on my 2500 & 3500, worked ok. Ones on my 2500 started working intermittently on the driver's side prior to trading it in. Wish they were an option with the RHO, but I understand why they're NOT.

I bought the RC power too plus Eibach springs

Eibach springs, RC running boards, wheels, & tires are in the plans. Ordered a BAKFlip MX4 cover, but requesting a refund from AmericanTrucks.com because FedEx lost them. Was going to go with EGR electric retractible cover, but too much work to install.

RC power boards have good reviews and probably work great. I like that you have control of the Mopar boards from the center stack and the installed dealer warranty but are $3K installed.

 

[Mopaniac]

Just the 1500 DT models, and only those coming out of Sterling Heights (not the ones they're now buiding in Saltillo, Mexico).

I don't see my group. 273 on this spread sheet. I hope that's not a problem .

I had the Thuren Springs and Fox shocks added to my 2500. It actually is a 2-inch level kit and that truck still had a pretty good rake. I am going to wait and see how much actual rake comes with my new RHO. Eibachs would seem the most logical, but I am also considering the Foutz 1.5 and the Rogue 1-1.25 perch only.

It’s in there. Between 272 and 274.

Guys I need help.

I put in my order early October and my otd price is probably going to be 81.5k give or take (without coupons but I’ll have to spend about 1k to ship). Not in production yet. Dealer said schedule build date is early December.

A dealer locally told me they would give me 85.9k with coupons and military… the only difference is this one also comes with pano roof… basically higher dealer fees and such hacked away at some of their 9-10k discount.

Is it worth it to not have to wait? Or will I thank myself for waiting if I get the truck in 6-8 weeks?

Lucky you! Mine was initially the 10th then pushed back to the 18th. Just happy mine is finally in the works.

Well is this truck the same color and options you want, just with the added pano? Do you want the pano? Can you in your mind justify paying more for this?
I waited 8 months for my truck to get built. I only wanted the options I chose and color, and I would search the internet for it with no luck. Then one came up actually a guy on here who canceled his order had the same order from MD. I thought about it but then I had to pay for shipping and try to sell my truck as I was trading in. Two days later my truck was finally in production and I said im waiting. Something about know this truck was built for me and how I wanted it.
So ask yourself those questions, or is about you just wanting it that bad you don't want to wait because I get that too. So far the best wait ever and loving it every day!

So you're looking at spending about $3400 more to take the local/immediate option. Another item to consider is - will you forfeit a deposit on the original order?

yes I would forfeit the 1k deposit. For some reason the 1k deposit doesn't bum me out. I'm mostly weighing out whether or not the 4400 I'm losing is something I'll have buyers remorse for.

I think the big thing is time. If I had a crystal ball and I knew my truck would take more than another 6-8 weeks... I'd jump on this immediately... but if my truck came in 8 weeks or less I'd probably be annoyed that I paid a bit more for convenience.

There are other small things like... I know I'd have more time to save and a smaller monthly payment that would be more aesthetically pleasing each month... however I can afford the higher payment if I get the truck today.

I still like the options and color of this truck (forged blue instead of black)... and still has my bed utility group... just comes with added pano which I did want because it looks super cool. I only didn't get it because it's more failure points and shit to deal with when things go wrong.

Wait it out. It’s not that much longer and it’s probably just the excitement building up. And remember, that’s the truck you designed and picked.

 

[Eighty]

You should probably decide what premium you think you’d be at peace with paying to get it now. Then go to the dealer and let them decide if they can get there.
Understanding that the pano is worth about half of the current difference. And it sure is nice to have in good weather

God that pano is sexy isn’t it.

i was on the fence between the Foutz too but decided on the Eibachs in case i ever have the itch to upgrade to 37"
