0 / 76 TRUCK FOUND TODAY (2/27/21)

rbrdky · Feb 28, 2021

LE ordered in August, went to "D" in November I think it was; I was given a build date of 2/1 but that week I got pushed back to D. Back to D1 on 2/13 (my birthday) and given delivery date of 2/27. Tuesday last week I was still D1. Thursday I was in "I," Friday I hit JB, then yesterday KZ with a window sticker. It took forever to happen, and by the middle of next week I was getting reeeeeally skeptical, but pretty amazed at how quickly I went from D1 to KZ.... three days! Crazy. Thanks to everyone here especially @KnightMare and @tripleB for all of the work they do, and to @Caliche for his positive attitude. Also big thanks to @Bambi for making this watch party a lot more fun.

For all of you guys who still haven't been built, I really feel for ya, and I won't forget how it feels watching everyone else hit the lottery while holding a lousy ticket that says "D" on it. I have seen people WITH BUILT TRUCKS posting (particularly on FB) about how people are "whiners" etc. when venting about not being built and having no communication. I remember thinking "that's really easy for you to say, a$$hole with your built truck." Well I promise not to be an a$$hole with a built truck, and I hope like hell that my forum folks stuck in D or D1 get built really really soon.

Well, don't make that a reason to not post your impressions. People being excited is what keeps me alive waiting for this damn truck that has been stuck in repair forever.

How are people with built trucks being assholes? I haven’t noticed it

Oh hell no, I'm not going anywhere. So sorry about your truck, bro.

Not so much here, like I said, more on FB. The only one I've really seen being an asshole on here is you lol... but always appropriately and hilariously.

This was back in late January I believe, people responding to some poor guy venting about not being built yet. I don't think I've looked since then

This truck really is kind of an asshole... it's like a big giant middle finger stuck straight up in the air to the emasculation (or should I say "E-masculation" lol) of the American auto industry. That's primarily what attracted me to this truck in the first place, to be honest

Same. Any vehicle that screams “Fuck You Peasants and Sheeple” gets a look

Think I may have finally gotten somewhere. After emails to the GM at my dealer where he just kept telling me it should be moving along and he’d keep watching, I fired one off stating that 95% of built trucks have window stickers and mine is now a big outlier. I told him he needed to reach out to FCA and figure out what is going on.

A day later there are emails flying back and forth including the supply chain manager at the plant stating the plant will prioritize getting this VIN moving. It sounds like it was just lost in the mix, which is silly. They said we should see it move now, so I am hoping Monday or Tuesday I’ll at least get word it is out of I.

702 for US market only, Canadians get 100 etc....

Ah yes...as I was walking down the hall yesterday I was thinking about the 706 number and I had a WTF moment, but now remembering that 100 are going to the youtubers up north.

Top Post updated to include Launch Editions built to date for each country, and will continue in my daily updates now as well. It is continually being mentioned and "guessed" upon so I figured it would be easier for everyone if it was just in the daily posts. We only have confirmation of the totals of 702 for the US and 100 for Canada so far. We don't know what the cap is for the Middle East

We are currently at 605 LE built for the US, so they have 97 to go. 69 for Canada with 31 to go.

It's like every day. I thought they making only 702? How they got 726? 12 LE's left!

I am bolting a brass pole in the back of the bed and going to run around NJ charging 10 bucks for a ride.

LoL. I know it! Was hoping to cut some of that out by just posting it daily! Guess we will see.
