Oceanic Journey Begins?...

Hi guys, I am super psyched to say that Huffinton is finally on his way to the United States. I called 1-800-ASK-MINI and it said that Huffington is "in transit". I am assuming that this means either he is on the ship or on the road... Which is it? Can any of you leave a comment as to when he should get home Also I was reading on another thread that the EPA has not passed the new model year and this is backlogging MINIS, is this true?

THANKS GUYS & GALS!

Journey

In my case in transit meant leaving the plant...and waiting at the port for about a week for a vessel...and another week to cross the pond....and then 3-5 days at the welcome center before catching a ride on a truck...couple more 2-3days...until it finally says: AT DEALER ! (patience grasshopper)

Rail trip to the port, wait. Wait days for loading. Load, wait, leave. Sail awhile, wait. Stop here and there, wait. Get to your port. Wait.

Lots of things, then wait. Hang tough. It's coming.
