I gotta say, the color is kind of unimpressive from actual photo/video footage. Looks like a light brown. Maybe it's just the lighting.

My local dealer will have one.

I believe this was originally intended to be a ‘23 edition. Releasing it now could mean the ‘23 will be a different configuration.

What makes you think that?

What makes you think that?

A lot is changing around us quickly. Primary, inflation pressure, gas prices, Raptor R horsepower war. We’ll see but it seems like a late model year special edition that was pulled up.

Makes sense. The only thing that makes me think it was always going to be a '22 is the "Order Confirmed" and "Order Processed" info on the Ram Tracker. I "ordered" on on 6/16. I was shocked when the dealer called on 6/18 and said it was built pending inspection. I thought "built one day after my order date? No F'ing way! TRX Forum record!" However, my truck showed up today on the Ram tracker. It shows a Feb 1 order date and "in production" two days before I "ordered." Since these are all allocation - my guess is the dealers had to claim their allocation 4-5 months ago, and my name got assigned to the order on 6/16. The Feb "order processed" date make me think it was allways going to be a '22. Speculation only.

Got a text this morning from the dealership informing me they have one allocation for the Sandblast and asked if I would be interested. After some back and forth, I decided not to order a MY23 Flame Red. Now I'm soon to be the proud owner of a Sandblast Edition.

The truck is currently sitting at the body vendor (assuming she's getting her graphics package put on). Is this the final stage of the build?

Got my VIN and should be getting the truck within the next 45 days delivered to my front door.

Looks like I'll be changing my username once it arrives.

Understanding Status Codes

What exactly is KZP status? I know it’s posted on this site as “with off-site shipping vendor” but does that mean it’s actually shipped, or just waiting to be shipped

Thanks for the info! Didn't even think about spray liner, step, etc. I just became a little smarter tonight.

Yeah and BBB found us a window sticker. its just a color package with all the options. 9200 option and requires level 2. add any accessories and its 100k. Pics are conflicting as a few show the black two tone and others don't

I hate that every special edition comes with the sunroof.

I've seen several sandblast editions show up on Canadian dealership sites all at once. Only problem is the prices here are still insanely high

Lucked into one of these. I put in an order for a lvl2 Granite back in March. After months of no movement, I asked my dealer “WRF?” They came back yesterday with the news (from regional rep) my order will be scheduled to go D1 mid September. So I asked my sales weasel if they were getting an allotment for the Sandblast. He came back with “yeah for $20K over MSRP” Eff that! I decided to make a tour of other local dealers this morning and the first one I got to, Champion of Decatur, has one in D1 status. I ask them how much and they responded with “MSRP, why are people charging more?” I put $2k down on that baby right away! I’m not holding my breath that Landers-McLarty will refund my deposit, but I do plan on sitting down with their GM to educate him on his people. Bottom line, by LM being fucked up like a Polio covered football bat, I get to end up getting a Sandblast for MSRP. 4 months of frustration is now worth it!

So,...
l found a dealer on Wednesday 22, that will have a Sandblast edition coming in ... spoke w/ sales mgr and sais they will sell for msrp ... he assigns a sales person to the deal ... takes a $1K deposit and deal is done on the 22nd ... today on the 25th, saleperson calls and says there's a problem, that the gm got wind of the Sandblast coming in and says he would not have sold it for msrp but for an Adm. of $10K over ... so he offers me the Sandblast at the new price or offers to refund my $1K deposit. l said no thanks, lm happy at msrp ... you offered me the price, l accepted and you took my deposit ... l now expect your GM to do the honorable thing and follow thru with the sale ,... we'll see what happens...

This is awesome news! Happy for you, know how frustrated you were!

This is awesome news! Happy for you, know how frustrated you were! I did the SAME thing. My October Chapman order is unbuilt. Regressed to D three times. I called a local dealer on 6/14 asking if they were getting any Sandblast. They said they were getting one. They called me 6/16 - put my name on it. No deposit at MSRP. It was built 6/20, shipped 6/21 and scheduled to arrive 7/15! -Butch

Congratulations!

Doh! I wanted the running boards so my toddler can get in/out easier. I guess I will have to find some aftermarket.
