2016 Tracking Thread
Shawn may I ask which fogs you bought and where? I have been on the fence on buying a set but don't want the old school yellow. I have been reading about some affecting the front camera causing flickering with the LEDs as well.
Side note. Is it possible th delays are for the ecoboost 3.5L engine or related? Many of the delayed trucks all seem to have this motor. Just a thought.
Thanks

So I've been trying every window sticker site I can find and even these two above say "Access to the window sticker has been restricted on this site." So I can't seem to get a sticker at all. If anyone has any ideas on what I can try, let me know...otherwise...oh well. And my ETIS updated 2 days after the build date and has all the options on it as ordered.
My updated info is as follows:
Ordered: 10/19/15
Received VIN: 10/30/15
Build Date: 11/11/15
ETA/Delivery: per Chad 12/3/15...hopefully......
Factory: Dearborn

Yes "something" is halting so many trucks that is for sure. The question is what and why they just aren't up front about what it is. Here is what I got from Chad:
"Hi vegasrider,
Unfortunately, it still hasn't left the plant. I've been seeing a few trucks go to the upfitter and come back to the plant again before being shipped. In those cases, the updates have been a little slow to post. As always, feel free to check back; I'll take another look."
Had the same ETA. I am now guessing my dealer is right by saying end of the year. Shipping to Vegas so I day shy of CA. I feel like my dealer gives you the worse case scenario up front. For example they never said 8-10 weeks like all the other dealers they said 12-14. When I acted surprised he rolled his eyes and said ok fine 8-10 weeks and then I'll just lie to you for a few weeks until it actually comes in.
Hopefully will be sooner but I'm not counting on any Black Friday rebates that's for sure.

Here's the latest on mine. Which is a platinum 3.5 full load.
She's still awaiting shipment, probably because they ship them out in lots, and have to wait on the other units. I do not see an ETA because it hasn't shipped yet.
BTW, you're not bugging us, that's why we're here!
Thanks,

I ordered a new Ram last year and it was delivered 6 weeks after I ordered it which was the expectation the dealer set the day I ordered it. Their website was spot on and up to date the whole time. Even after completion, it would show a countdown until it was shipped and where it was along the way. It was a great experience. I knew the whole time when the truck would be delivered.
This will be the first Ford that I have ever owned and I am anxious to get it. After 6 Rams, I was ready for something new and different. But I cannot figure out why this process is so lumpy. Its great that you can get the VIN, and see the sticker with the build date. But then there is no tracking website. No explanation on why the truck is sitting at the plant for 3 weeks or when it will ship. I just don't get that. Literally everything these days are tracked with current SLA's but these trucks. Chad has been awesome with updates and I know we are all very appreciative of his help. But the lack of info that is available is frustrating.
My truck was built 10/26, supposed to be delivered 11/19, but as of today, its still at the plant and no reason why. My dealer is zero help too. I will ask for an update and he will tell me that the truck has been built (has done that at least 5 times), he will let me know when he has an update. Really? It's built? Yes I know that, I told you that first! Tell me something useful!
I have sold my current truck in a private sale but I do not know when I will be able to do that since I have no clue when the truck will get here. I just hope I don't lose my frustrated buyer.
