Looks like July 9th is the big day. I'm wondering what the minor updates will be????

The big question for me is will the rear air ride suspension be an option for the 3500 Dually?

 

[Deleted member 995608]

All I heard was that the air ride was available late 2014 but does that mean it's really a 2015?

 

[Hoefler]

From what I understand from my research, the 2015 will have the air ride. I was told July 5, was the magic date, but time will tell. I will be ordering a 15 with air as well.

2015 fleet brochure

Well folks, looks like ZERO changes will be made to the 2015 models. And the SRW trucks are still only available with 3:42 R&P from the factory.

Hopefully the dead pedal issue will fixed for 2015.

In that case, looks like I'll be sliding till at least 2016... Good thing I still love my 2012!

Seen a 15 @ the Logan cruse-in last week end. Just minor appearance up dates no change in any other department, engine etc. But the dealer had put a 4" lift on it, taller tires and wheels. Stock they are hard to get in to and with this lift, and with my short legs Forget about it. My son bought one first of last week also, a 14, nice truck but difficult to CLIMB aboard. Literally.

Until RAM shows a video of a 3500 duallie with a heavy 11.5" truck camper with the rear air running the slalom course, I would not touch it with a 10 foot pole. I think then have the air bags way to far inboard!!!! SNOKING

Sorry but I'm gonna raise the BS flag on this one.

Yep, there's a good chance the driver of a vehicle with that combination could become sea sick.:-laf

called dealer last night 2015 ordering open for 2500/3500 but air suspension not ordering to next ordering allacation in september

I still haven't seen any build a 2015 option on Rams website yet. I wonder when that will get updated?

 

[Deleted member 995608]

A few people have claimed they have ordered the 2015 trucks. One says that 'power' folding mirrors are now an option.

 

[MCrossley]

friend of mine is trying to order a 15 and he said they cannot order air ride right now, power folding mirrors are available but it is for the smaller ones...

 

[jgillott]

SRW Aisin still under order restriction according to my dealer. I'm not real confident in their information at times so you may want to confirm that with another source.

 

[MJWenrich]

You also might want to think twice about those power folding mirrors. A friend of mine with a Chev truck just had to replace one of the mirror motors because someone came along and manually folded the mirror in. It broke the nylon gear and $649.00 later he has it working again. If Ram builds them the same way, and I just have to believe they do, I can get out of my truck and fold them in as I have done for years.

I'm not confident either. On forum B, some dealer told the customer they can order a SRW truck with 3:73 or 4:10 R&P's when according to the 2015 fleet brochure, it clearly states 'only available for DRW's. Until good published info is ready for viewing, I'm not buying anything the dealer tells me.

Any try to order a 2015 yet? Another guy claimed to order with a proposed build date of August 25th.

I just ordered and watched them configure my 2015 RAM 2500 Crew Cab 4x4 Cummins in the system. The options looked nearly identical to those available to the 2014, but I'd still like to know if there are any differences I just wouldn't notice in the system. I was told it is roughly 8 weeks out which would put it well past your August date, early-mid October. This is supposed to be the earliest it could be done, at least according to my local dealer. I was told I got one of their 'priority' build slots, but I have no idea if that was BS to make me feel good or they legitimately get some kind of priority slotting system and I'll be one of the first to get one.

I still haven't even really seen a 2015 2500/3500 official release with specs and such. Anyone else with similar experience or knowledge?

August 25th is when production is supposed to start, not deliver. I also read delivery dates somewhere around 8 weeks out form the August date/s.

I've contacted Ram several times about brochure release etc etc and have hit a brick wall. I'm hoping for electronic improvements but I'm not expecting any sheet metal or interior changes. At best, we might have different color options.
