Can you give us more information? SE5 or SM5? What have you done to try and get it moving, etc.

First of all :welcome: & :congrats: on your new RT Limited.
My only suggestion is to make sure that your electronic parking brake is off. Look for the red brake symbol upper middle of tach

:agree: It's a red blinking warning light... (In the tach; as was mentioned)

While you are looking for the flashing red light, look to make sure it's in gear too.

More info, Manual or Auto, Does it try to move when you feed gas??
If the engine just spins with no forward motion, It could be a bad front sprocket and or a shaft. But at 125 miles i doubt it.
I'm waiting 3 weeks for my sprocket and shaft to be repaired now[17500 miles] I had a loud pop and the engine would just rev.

:welcome: It does sound like it may be that the parking brake is still engaged. That's the easiest fix. Keep us posted.

:agree: BUT... wouldn't the machine TRY to go forward? On my SM-5, if I try to go forward on 1st (or R) with the emergency brake, it kills the engine.:dontknow:
