aleeann... just to keep you whet (LOL):
transit time from Port Hueneme to Oxnard to Seattle was about 6 days for me (assuming there's no transportation damage). So plan on rejoicing come the 15th!

I'm assuming probably less than 2-3 days to you, goj

Thanks for the info! They need to prep my rocker panel decals and spoiler but should be only an hour of actual work.

Sweet - 6 days seems like no time at all now compared to the timeline from ordering to finally docking at Port Hueneme.

Now, I wonder if the PIA team works weekends?

Thanks for the tip!

Call thru to the Customer representative after the automated status at the 1-800 number.

Ask them for the truck schedule. I asked a live person and they said my car has been released to the trucking co as of yesterday.

It left for the exit port today! Wonder if it'll make it on a ship the 20 or 21st! That'd mean it'd get to Baltimore Nov 2!
