jimbethesda, thanks for tracking our ship through the journey.

I do believe Waggoners is the trucking company that they use. This is what my CA told me. I don't know how we would track other than to call Waggoneers. I saw some talk on a few of the other threads about people contacting WGs to find out where their truck currently was.

Really you don't. The time from the VPC to your dealer is purely based on past experiences at the dealer. Somehow they can call the VPC and see if it's still there or not, but that's about it. Then it just shows up one day

Wow...all this time and I've been tricked. I've been putting my VIN number on the CARGO site and it kept coming as not found. My CA told me on Monday June 18th that my car was on the water. So I thought it was probably on the Patriot since that's when it departed. As it turns out and base on the OC website, my car as at the VPC. We all know the VPC is delayed a little so it might be at the dealer as I am typing this or at least pretty close to it.

This whole time I've been on Freedom - I'm assuming. The funny part is that I've been looking at this thread but never actually clicked on it becuz I kept think "Those bastid, already on the ship since 6/12 and my car is still in production (according to OC)" not knowing that we are all brothers delivered from the same mother!!!

jimbethesda · 07-02-2007, 01:11 PM

Welcome to the club! We had a lot of fun on this ship, but that pales in comparison to how much we'll have once we have our cars!

Yeah and each car that comes off of the Freedom has the BMW Babe option pre-installed

One babe per car to ensure that you know how to work all of the other installed options

Any of you Texas guys get info from your CA's or BMW Circle status changed?

Status is still showing en route on the OC site, and still stating in transit on the 800 line. I haven't checked in with my CA yet. This is going to be on LONG week ! :mad:

+1

I wouldn't think the CA's will know anything for a few days.

A very LONG week. And then I may have to go most of next week too. I have to find time to drive over to Houston. I really wish the SA dealer had a clue!

Hey one of you Houston guys want to drive it down for me? (Like I'd trust you guys!!)

jimbethesda · 07-02-2007, 03:05 PM

I didn't ask my CA. OC still says en route, but it's always behind the curve.

I think they still need to go by train to the VPC? Might not be there until tomorrow, or (gasp) Thurs.

HEY32G · 07-02-2007, 03:06 PM

I think we're pretty much going to be guessing from here on out. At least we could track the Freedom.

HEY32G · 07-02-2007, 03:15 PM

Hey Stinger

Your iPhone working?

drphil71 · 07-02-2007, 04:54 PM

So, i got a message from my CA this morning telling me my car will be there the 3rd or 4th. Doesent make much sense to me but i hope its true. Im careful to even ask but do they work on the 4th at the dealerships? Hope hes not getting my hopes up too much but if he is right 1-2 days from VPC seems a little fast.

Is he talking to your dealer for you to p/u on the 3rd or 4th, or to the VPC?

drphil71 · 07-02-2007, 05:03 PM

at the dealer. Im gonna call him tomorrow morning to clear it up.

HEY32G · 07-02-2007, 05:05 PM

THat's way too quick. I think it will get to the VPC on the 3rd or 4th.

My dealer in Houston is telling me next Tuesday or Wednesday. It's 900 miles (roughly) from the VPC.

jimbethesda · 07-02-2007, 05:08 PM

Wow! That doesn't seem right, but I hope they are right. I thought it took 1-2 days by train just to get to the VPC.

drphil71 · 07-02-2007, 05:12 PM

yeah im not getting my hopes up im expecing next monday or tuesday but any earlier would be a nice suprise

I wouldn't get too excited about that.

I'm going to bed early tonight that way I can be one day closer when I wake up.
