Stuck at the Port?

Hey, wondering if anyone else has been stuck at the port. Car finished production 11/9 and has been there ever since. Final location is Boston so probably going through port of NY. Theres a boat leaving tomorrow from wallenius willemhelmson so hopefully it gets out on that. Wondering if anyone else is in the same boat. Hopefully i get this thing by new years to get all the incentives. If not then.....

Mine waited nearly 3 weeks to get on a boat in October. Sucked.

Hang in there...

Don't worry about the incentives. You can lock for 60 days starting on the last day of the program (Jan. 2, 2013). So you should be good through March 2, 2013.

Mine finished up 11/14, probably going on the same boat as yours (at least I hope). My CA told me the car would be at the dealer by end of month - although I don't believe it.

FYI, the cars are getting loaded this morning. Car was released to carrier and being transported to port of exit. I think the ship we're looking for is TAMPA (NORWAY) or the TURANDOT (SINGA).

T and T will not show anything until 24 hours after the boat leaves port. Turandot just left, Tampa is leaving 11/22. Logical deduction of scheduled boat departure times would indicate our cars would have to be loaded somewhere today. Turandot is the boat you don't want to be on because it gets to NY port 12/6 (est.) vs. Tampa's 11/30 (est.). What I've noticed is est. travel is usually off by a couple days when going to the U.S. port.

You know because you checked Track and Trace or because your CA told you? Just curious.
