Selfishly hoping the delay gets a little more extended

Jokes aside, I seriously admire the patience for all of you sitting in RFT since mid April! Hope y’all get a boat soon.

Not sure this is true across the board. My CA gets news the same day that mygarage is updated, at least that was the case during the build process. He would usually text me later in the morning with updates that I already saw on mygarage earlier in the morning. Genius appears to have updates at the same time as well. Maybe once shipment begins then the CA gets information before mygarage/genius.

Do we happen to know if Morning Concert has left Mexico? I tried to figure it out myself but my research has only yielded information that is 8hrs to 4 days delayed.

It's now scheduled to leave Veracruz on the 27th.

Woah, didn’t you go RFT mid May?? I’ve been RFT since 4/26. Still no update. No bucket seats so I figured no delay, and it’s already RFT so there shouldn’t be a delay

Edit: I guess it’s possible we’re being loaded onto the same ship and you got loaded first

Yeah, RFT was Friday, May 12th. I’m confused. I called the genius line and they don’t have any additional information. It might have gotten on the boat. They told me to call back later today or tomorrow.

Don't let the boat leave without mine! Looks like you guys are in Colorado and the Northeast. I'm in Minnesota. Would any of us be on the same boat?

I would guess you’re on a west coast vessel. East Coast ports are a long way from Minnesota. Lol.

Mine too, early this morning it was "at the port" and now it is "in transit". Looks like our cars made it to the same vessel...

RFT since 4/26…. If my car doesn’t get on this ship, I’m going to lose my shit. I’ll go down to Mexico pick this thing up myself, and enjoy a 2,500 mile road trip/ break-in period

Shipping nerd here.

A huge amount of maritime traffic to that region goes through the Gulf of St Lawrence through Erie Canal into the Great Lakes.

Generally the Great Lakes / Midwest are serviced by either that waterway or from the south via the Mississippi (one of the most active shipping waterways in the world). (Ex: by river to St. Louis, then via truck for the final leg.)

In BMW's case, we care about VDCs, though. The Baltimore VDC processes "cars destined for Mid-Atlantic states and the Central region." I assume that covers Minneapolis.

I’m west coast. What little research I’ve done says BMW runs ships out of Port of Lazaro Cardenas that travel up to the Oxnard VDC.

There is currently only one vehicle carrier docked at LZC: https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais.../vessel:LYDDEN

There is another vehicle carrier anchored outside that BMW appears to have used in the past: https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais...VESTON_HIGHWAY

I don't see any destination information yet, but BMW allegedly only contracts NYK for west coast deliveries.

My car is waiting for the ship that's anchored off port, that's Morning Concert, having some slight delays right now.

Morning Concert is in Veracruz, which would be East Coast of Mexico. LZC is a west coast port.
