Re: New truck ordered 2018
It took mine about 8-9 weeks to reach the dealer iirc, though it took me 4 more weeks to pick it up in Boise. Once it is built it can take a long time to get to the dealer. If you are having the dealer install sliders or something like that, it takes extra time. There is also a several week lead time for those, so don’t wait for the truck to show up.

Re: New truck ordered 2018
Currently there is a national railcar shortage that FCA has had an issue dealing with. Currently build time for a Powerwagon is roughly 5-6 weeks. Shipping can easily add 4 weeks onto that. I would expect anywhere from 7-10 weeks to give you a safe estimate

Re: New truck ordered 2018
I live on the east coast so that should add some time for shipping great. Worth the wait as long as it’s not built on a Friday lol
Re: New truck ordered 2018
Took about 6 weeks when I ordered my 16. But there is no set time frame.

Re: New truck ordered 2018
Well... if your on the East Coast, and this falls through... National Dodge has one on their lot... I test drove her the other day and it really makes me second guess trading in OX for her. She has all the bells and whistles.

Re: New truck ordered 2018
When I ordered mine in '08. Took 3 weeks to build, and 3 weeks to ship. 1 of those weeks in shipping was actually in shipping. The other 2 weeks. It sat on the train in Buffalo NY. Told the dealer that I want to go up and pick it up there. He said that they won't let me do that.

Re: New truck ordered 2018
The dealer emailed me saying it is scheduled to be built around August 4 which is a Saturday so I am assuming maybe Monday we’ll see

Re: New truck ordered 2018
There is build, then it goes to another building where things like the bedliner is installed (not sure what else) and then it waits for a train. Then it spends a few days or a week+ on the train to get unloaded and transfer to the next train in a week or two, then they unload it a few days after that to wait until there are both enough vehicles and a free truck to take it to the dealer.

Sorry ssiannino, it's a slow process with a lot of potential hold ups.

Re: New truck ordered 2018
I am assuming this is one of 5 Million reasons they are shutting down Mexican operations. Delivering product will be a lot faster and cheaper when you do not have to deal with cross border logistics from Mexico.

Re: New truck ordered 2018
This is also why some believe the new trucks from Mexico have issues. The workers know they are shutting down the plant.FordyceCreekTrail wrote: ↑Fri Aug 10, 2018 8:57 amI am assuming this is one of 5 Million reasons they are shutting down Mexican operations.

Re: New truck ordered 2018
I hope that’s not the case with the truck being built in Mexico that would suck buying a lemon or even better ordering a lemon. No word yet on the status going to call today to find out if it is built yet.
Re: New truck ordered 2018
So found out that the truck is built and awayting accessories and to check back in 3 weeks

Don't worry - it's not like the Mexicans are racing your truck around the desert... or are they?

Yours was right next to mine on the rail-car. The driver who delivered mine said there was a reg cab PW on the car with mine, must have been yours ??? Mine sat there for a week & I couldn't go pick it up either, 45 minutes away.
