March Order Updates

[D&Sadventure]

I have heard the exact same thing from several different sources. It’s not Ram‘s fault. They didn’t plan on canceling everybody’s order that early. They just could not build them because of the tariffs causing hold ups at the border. It’s hard to build trucks without HO motors to put in them. As far as canceling colors goes yes that was a ram decision. Like I said before they should’ve prioritized all the trucks that were of colors they were canceling. Hydro blue and red. Used the existing supply of motors they had to build those.

They could have communicated some or any of this that is the part where they did people wrong. I wasn't that upset about the delay, I'm pissed I can't get what I ordered and put a good deposit on and got zero communication in the process. You know they are going to release more colors after the force everyone out of the ones they ordered.

I, like many of you, ordered in March and had my "Order Confirmed" date moved back to 6/12. Just checked my vehicle order status and noticed that I now have a "Scheduled" date of 6/17. I know this isn't a reliable source of information, but thought I'd provide an update, nonetheless.

It's canceled. Call them and confirm.

Received an email from MD today that my order got moved to a 2026. Got a new VIN and tracker completely reset to "order confirmed June 12" from March 6th. They said pricing will be protected and incentives will roll over as well. I guess at this point all I can hope is that it will be a priority and not a year from now.

My April 2nd 2025 confirmed level 0 order got rolled over into a 2026 as well. My new Confirmed date is also June 12th, and then mine got scheduled on June 17th. Has yours been scheduled yet? I’m very happy we are getting 2026 models with the new warranty extension even if it means I’ve got to wait longer.

Agreed it's canceled

I’m in the same boat as y’all. Mid march order being flipped. Tracker not showing the update. Don’t know if I need a new number or not. Getting irritated and really hoping for a good update this week. Understand MD has no control over these things. I’ll blow up Ram this week see what I can get since I already have a case number. Any chance we get Ram to throw us a perk or 2 for the delay? I’m totally cool with getting a 2026. I’m more frustrated that Ram has no damn clue what’s going on it seems.

Same boat, I had an April 3rd confirmed order. Now I’ve got a confirmed of June 12th and a scheduled date of June 17th. My tracker auto updated though, that’s weird yours is blank. But I’m very happy and willing to wait longer to get a 2026 with the new 10 year / 100,000 mile warranty on the 26’s, price protected and keeping our incentives cash, no one else will be getting a 2026 for the price we are getting our at.

Agreed, mine was a January order that was to damaged to release, I couldn't be happier now!

The reason I am so bitter was 1.) zero communication , and 2.) the color I ordered isn't available and all they are allowing you to order is basic colors. Fully optioned even with a good discount off MSRP these are not cheap. At this point I'm looking at rapter r and or private party 24 trx. But I've never owned any truck other than a ford so not sure if I want to make the switch now after how it was handled.

I get your frustration, if you are not in a hurry, and you have waited this long wait gor the other colors to release and move forward with that. I know Ram did us all wrong here, but we all know how much we love our Rams. Beside that Raptor R interior doesn't hold a candle ti Rams interior, just plastic everywhere.
But it is your hard earned money in the end it's what makes you happy.

I found a few 2024 trx I'm going to look at. Yes I liked the tech ( self driving assist, massage seats and bigger screens, powered tailgate ) of the rho but that supercharger sound and feel just may be worth it. I've read the trx is pretty stiff but admittedly have never been in one so I'm gonna go test drive one see what I think. I was willing to wait but initial reports are that they will not bring back the fire red or hydro blue even for people who have ordered it and had them canceled. It's interesting I was watching a documentary on auto manufacturing and less colors is going to be a thing going forward for cost reasons which sucks. When you start talking anywhere near 6 figures for vehicles that are not about function (speed and fun category) I feel those customizations are requirements.

It's not a good look at all. What's worse is they knew for a long time they were doing this and didn't say a word. I had a vin and ship date, then it disappeared and they were radio silent.

They must have run out of red paint and just quit building them cause I had a March 13 order date and got my truck !! It's Granite (I really wanted Hydro but that's another story) so maybe that's why I got it... they still had Granite and not red !!!

 

[Attakracer]

Today I solved my problem yesterday I scoured the Internet looking for every RHO I could find there were triplets three Hydro blue RHO’s in Clinton Illinois at the local dealer. There are now only two.

See, that's bullshit that you had to find a truck when they cancelled your order !!! THEY should have told you where there might be some sitting with the color you wanted !! "sorry we had to cancel your order but there's 5 that are that color at such and such dealer" THAT would be good customer service !!!!!

Figured this was as good place as any to post this. My first order was actually May 10 of 2024. The second order was placed March 25 of 2025 and canceled earlier this week as I mentioned previously by Chrysler. So 405 days after my journey began I finally got one in my driveway. And I couldn’t bear a part with the raptor so I kept them both.

I didn’t cancel the bead lock. They just quit offering them on the later orders.
