Happy to join this forum! Ordered mine 5/3, got the VIN 5/4 and now waiting for any updates (assume it's D status, waiting for parts and such). It's going to be a TnG, Redline, Blind spot and Cargo Package. My own estimate would be July from what I've seen around. We'll see, first time doing a factory order.

Some of you might have seen me bitch about my Durango R/T towngo destroyer grey, not being here (wife said We couldn’t afford the srt). I ordered it February 27th and delivery date was April 27th, since my date went by, no updates from the dealer, I was fuming since I know these guys. Well today May 24th I got the call, “you car is here, be here by 7 pm sharp”!!! I’m like wtf I’m at work! Anyway Left work and went to pick it up. Sat down and he goes let’s go see it first, we went thru the garage and of course, there’s an srt seating there, obviously I turn my face like I’m walking with my wife on the street and a hot girl passes by, we go in the back parking lot and he goes “ I can’t find the car. “Let’s go back I don’t know where it is”, I’m like wtf I got to pass by that sexy srt behind again?? As I get close to it my wife and my 2 kids jump from behind it!!! She surprised me and had ordered the srt for me!! Happy 20th anniversary!! She said. Not sure how she pulled this off but thank you Merrick Dodge Chrysler for all the help!! FYI the dealer keep the r/t towngo that actually might be available if anyone looking. All Smiles per gallons now!!

Some good news, and hope the info is helpful to others.
Ordered Tow N Go (leather, blind spot, Harmon and nothing else) April 16. I asked dealer first week of May, and got VIN (758xxx), Status D1, and "Estimated Ship Date" of 5/28 1:59am.
After all the news about Jefferson North Plant reducing shifts, I used online chat with Dodge in mid-May. They told me Status is still D1, but no more estimated ship date.
On 5/26, I asked my dealer to check on the status again. Still D1, but Estimated Ship Date is there, 5/29 1:59am - which is exactly 24 hours behind the original.
I also used the auto VIN check (posted by other forum members) for car equipment almost daily. "VIN not found" all the way until very late last night 5/31, and I saw the equipment and option list.
This morning, my dealer sent me a printout. Status KZ, car was already shipped from Jefferson North evening of May 29, and will arrive Pearland, TX 6/8. In Indiana last night.
So, have hope, people.

Arrived at dealer today! I think it looks good enough in blue without the Black Top package, and I prefer the design of these wheels more.

VERY nice... Absolutely love the old school non-black top version... wheels especially! Had mine built the same way! Going In-Violet though.

My VIN build sheet was posted 6/8... Won’t be too long now!

Have fun!!

I ordered mine on 5/15 also. RT Vice White with Black top and black leather, Harmon, sun roof, blind spot, premium interior, roof rails, and side steps. It was built on 6/5 and is sitting in the up fit center. I assume to get the side steps put on.
Only difference with ours is the Tow & Go.
