Does priority 99 definitively mean the dealer placed an order without an active allocation? Or is that just a default when an order is initially placed?Not necessarily. BA just means the order was submitted. Not accepted by Ram. Your dealer took your order in hopes of getting that allocation.
Once you go to D status and have a VIN, you know the allocation is assured.
And 99 is the lowest priority build number.
I got a POC 9/24 (yesterday) with a VON, "BA - Pending Order", and Priority 99. Dealer said they had an allocation to use. Nothing shows up on the RAM tracker yet...
I have a fallback dealer that said the same thing (MSRP deal + allocation available), but who's to say they won't do the same thing? Kind of wild if there's no way for buyers to validate what dealers promise
