I’ll one up that. Got a well modified 2019 REWB that can kick ass, and is one of the club’s Jellcat of the Year. The first $300,000 OBO takes it, and I’ll throw in a 20’ tilt flatbed trailer.
$5000 cash money, and I'll even come pick it up to save you shipping!

They don't even make a million units for the f150 aka "best selling truck" you think they have 1 million orders for these cars? 🤣🤣, If you believe that I got a nice lot in Manhattan to sell you for 50k.

There are still allocations on the locator available, my best guess is that dodge is avoiding building unallocated units in favor of rewarding smaller dealers with the opportunity to get hellcats, you know the dealers in butt f*ck nowhere that are run by Billy bob and his cronies that don't really wanna sell hornets in 2024.

The whole allocated/unallocated system is a giant mess, and I wonder how much actual demand there would be if anyone could go to any dealer and order one, because I guarantee you that if allocations did not exist these big dealers like koons and chapman would be doing under invoice deals.

I almost feel like dodge is creating their own scarcity of units to drum up demand, throw dealers a bone with adm, and make sure they are able to empty the parts bin without ordering too many extras.
F all this allocated BS

That's approximatly the number of people who have tried to order these cars, not the actual number of valid orders for cars to actually be built. Go back and carefully re-read the first post.

I did read your first post hence my response…

I don’t know how you “try” to order, you either do or you don’t…and how the number of people that “try” are being tracked is questionable AF.

A dealer has an allocation for a Last Call or any other vehicle showing up in the allocation locator. The customer and dealer agree on a price and draft a sales order and the order is placed…

Some mouth breathing fuckwit with a 500 and change credit score rolls up to the dealership in his clapped out ‘84 Camaro and says he want one of them there new Demon 170s don’t count…

Dealers all over the country have been taking orders far in excess of their allotments hoping to cash in on the stampede in case more are made. That's why there are so many 5N7 sales codes on the books. Dodge's software does NOT prevent dealers from ordering more cars than their allotment.

Corporate accounting dept. (latest estimate based on # of incoming orders submitted for all new Dodges including old orders for 22's that haven't been built yet. Not just Redeyes, sorry for the confusion).

I know the feeling, I ordered my Challenger Redeye in the summer of 2022. My Dodge dealer was not the brightest bulb in the pack, I had incorrect information, from January 2022, attempting to order a Jailbreak, then a Redeye. Finally, the Challenger was delivered January 2022. Luckily, my plan was to get the Redeye, as a backup, in case the Demon was unattainable. I have attempted to get a Demon, but after contacting 130+ dirt bag dealers, no luck. I will enjoy my Red Challenger Redeye...

That's every manufacturer tho, it's nothing new. They knew this since early 2021.

Go check all 2023 f150s, they eliminated the heating steering wheel and led numbers on the hvac controls, so from a 45k xlt to a 111k raptor R you have no heated steering wheel button.
Its true.
I just find it funny that you can't get a heated steering wheel in a 140k Raptor R

That’s why I bought my lightly used ‘21 Platinum… heated, massaging, roof, the works… because I couldn’t spend $100k to buy one like it and not have a heated wheel. Ford also stopped offering to retrofit the options when they became available…

Wonder what the profit difference is between a v6 base and a REWB…
I’d imagine the REWB makes them 2x as much money…

The Hellcats are a shit ton of profit to Dodge.
They make money on the 30k SXT, a 100k Demon is gravy. And it probably costs them a few grand more to make the Demon over the SXT.

If they’re going EV, they shouldn’t have to worry about the emission standards against a fleet… flood the market with HP

Yeah maybe even more with markup lol. Imagine a 150k S class with no heated steering wheel, would never happen.

We got our trucks back in may 2021 before the sh*tshow started, back then we had led numbers in the hvac controls, heated steering wheel, etc etc

Not looking forward to what 2024 holds for us.

You can shoot the messenger if you want but it won't change the facts, they simply do not have the parts supply to build the vast number of cars that have been ordered, not even close. And that folks is really bad news because they are NOT going to start up the supply chain all over again on models that are being discontinued. Cancelled orders are already stating to show up at dealerships nationwide. Hey, what the hell, nobody's more unhappy about this than I am.
