FROM WHAT I GATHER THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOME FINAL INSPECTIONS TO BE DONE. DON'T BE SURPRISED TO SEE THE 1ST LOAD GET TRUCKED OUT WITH THE 2ND.

MAN, THEY SURE DO LIKE TO LEAVE YOU GUYS IN THE DARK.
THX FUB FOR THE VIN STATS!!! U ROCK

Where did you hear the port info from? I was almost certain that mine was on the second boat, but the order shows it's already here (status 30). I hope you're right... that would put mine on the first boat and at the dealer shortly....

so... let me get this straight - all the left coast cars on the ground now came on the first boat? And as such, they should be close to a roll-out?

:D :D :D :D :D

according to last week's Port of Tacoma - Shipping Report:

"PIER 4. 06/27/03, CHIJIN, LAVINO, AUTOS/RO-RO"

I don't know if that is arrival or departure information, but either way our ship was still up in Tacoma then. 7/2/03 is fine with me though.

Oh....

So this ship actually ported in Port Tacoma first and will be heading to Port Hueneme second.

I thought it was the reverse. Port H first and then Port Tacoma second.

Bummer

Now if that's true, then my car made the first boat. Now if only I could get mine by this weekend...

So I guess the real question is - and I haven't seen anyone definitively answer it, is whether or not the 2nd boat made a reverse run like the first, and hit port H first and then Tacoma, or whether it's going tother way round.

So how bout it insiders? Maybe shed a little light on why we're all waiting and letting the cars gather dust. How often do people get this amped up to SPEND 30-35K on anything? Why make us wait?

I've received a 'Status 30 - Received at Port' VIN check a couple days ago. I was definately not on the 1st boat. My car arrived at Port H and will get distributed to the SF Bay Area. So, whatever path it took, Tacoma or Hueneume (sp?), mine arrived.

Can anybody confirm Tacoma delivery arriving from the second boat?

AS I UNDERSTAND IT, ITS PH FIRST, THEN TACOMA. TAKE A LOOK AT THE P.O.T. SHIPPING SCHEDULE LINK I POSTED ABOVE. THEN LOOK BACK AT THE ETA'S FOR PH.
