Mine was on a truck on Friday, so is probably at the dealership now. My MA is off on Mondays so I haven't heard a word, will hopefully hear tomorrow.

Yesterday - my MA told me it should be here today.

I just got off the phone with them and they said the system is telling them that it is scheduled for dealer delivery for 3.19. Now, not sure if that is an accurate statement. Just want the facts - no false promises.

I have been working with Art - and good experience all the way around with him and Mini of Austin. IF it gets in Saturday - that will be 8 weeks on the nose from my order date. No complaints - as long as things don't drag on too long from this point.

I heard it was 4-5 days to Texas, so in that range I would think.
I can't believe you have an app to watch the ship, good thing I didn't know about that .

That is wonderful news!

My CM S is on the FH and if it hits Brunswick on time, then I will take delivery next week!

My MCS is on the Florida Highway. It's still in Baltimore so I'm looking forward to it starting to sail tonight towards GA. My car should get off in GA for the trip to Texas. This waiting is painful.

My MA just let me know my CM will be unloaded 4/7.

I live in Mt. Holly, a suburb of Charlotte, NC.

Moritz Mini in Dallas. From the ship tracking site it looks like we moved from the Dundalk side of the Baltimore harbor to the other side this morning. But Florida Highway is still docked in Baltimore. If it is going to make it to GA tomorrow, it better get moving.

What's up with the Florida Highway. It was supposed to have left Baltimore yesterday. Instead, it moved from one side of the port to the other and re-docked. It's still sitting there. They are supposed to leave from Brunswick, GA tomorrow. There is no way I think they can make it to GA, off-load and leave again tomorrow. I hope there is no problem with the ship. Please do maintenance when someone else's mini is on you ship, not mine.

It was showing up on some websites as just outside the mouth of the harbor in Brunswick. Then it either sank or stop broadcasting its position because it disappeared. Let's hope it just docked and unloaded. The K-Line website shows it "departing" Brunswick today (4/7) so hopefully it made it today and unloaded. I'll check with my MA tomorrow to see if he has any info.

I thought it had sank and I would have to wait to reorder my mini. Now if we could only track the trucks to the dealership...

Thumbs up

The FH definitely made it!

My MA just emailed me and my CM S was unloaded yesterday and sent to the Greer, SC VDC. It will be released and in Charlotte on Mon or Tues and ready for me to pick up Wed or Thurs.

I would imagine all other Minis which were on the FH are either at a VDC or on their way!
