Must be a volume sales thing. I asked my dealer about the reimbursement and he said ram wouldn't honor now that the recalls inforce.
When I went back to pick up my Ram today the service rep mentioned that after I left he got the memo about 19's being eligible. Interesting though that he said they're only getting 1 pump every 3 weeks now. Issue being new truck allotments and now ECO diesels are being recalled for the CP4 as well. 60,413 more added. That alone is going to help suck the pool of HPFP dry. I'm just going to hang in there at this point. I can't see paying the prices they want for a new 2023. Half the dealers around me have diddle for inventory. I'm retired and don't use my truck much until next April or so, so if the HPFP tanks it's not like I'm all that inconvenienced.
he did confirm that if it does grenade I get the next HPFP coming in.
If by April things are still bad I may look at some options. Frustrating to say the least.

I've had a 33 gallon RDS tank in my last 2 trucks. Pretty easy to install and plumb into the main tank. ford-truck.com forums covers a lot of different installations
Here are a few shots of my install. I used a solenoid valve to prevent any potential back flow in addition to a pump. I wired the pump and valve to an up fitter switch in my truck; running it 7 minutes puts 10 gallons into the main tank. Tanks come in all sizes and shapes. I choose mine so it fits under my tonneau cover.

There is one important consideration that anyone considering buying a diesel must take into account. There is a naturally occurring phenomenon that diesel owners will find maddening. Here is the scenario; enter a gas station with a dozen or more pumps. The station is totally empty except for the one Prius that is parked blocking access to the only diesel pump at the station. No owner in sight. There you are sitting waiting for that person to use the rest room, buy their instant lottery tickets, scratch them off. They then come out and pump their gas. Taking the time to give those few extra squeezes of the pump to make sure they are totally full. They get in the car, struggle to fasten their seatbelt, adjust their mirrors, and off they go.
Now you can pull up to the pump.2017 Ford F350 Platinum 6.7L PowerStroke DRW
