You’ve been bumping your gums for 2 years with that same schtick.

I placed my order June 29. My 230i is currently on a boat in the Gulf of Mexico awaiting departure for the US. The boat is due in the US October 12.

Yup, saw that this morning. Let’s hope it doesn’t sit there too long 🤞🏼

My car is on that ship too, but with the strikes at the ports, I don't think we're getting our cars any time soon

The ocean ports are important because most ports are located on the oceans and water is an integral part of an ocean port. Ports load and unload goods carried to and from ports on the ocean by ocean going vessels built and maintained at port cities. Cities without ports and ocean water are known to be portless and don’t serve the load/unloading process. I hope that helps.

Very good. Did you see the opening of SNL this week. Dana C. and Maya R. nailed Kamala and Jabiden. It was great

Captain/Speedy/Krass.....Are you waiting on the Port of Baltimore too. I live outside of Baltimore. I hope this strike gets cleared up by 10/9.

No, I missed it.
SNL is about 3 hours past my bedtime.

Will the ship even sail before the strike is resolved?

That’s a yes for me. Let’s hope this gets settled long before the 9th.

SNL is too late for me too. Fast forward to around 10 minutes and watch the rest.

Let's hope so!!!! I think it will be solved within a week. Hopefully our ship will be at sea during that time....

You waiting for Baltimore too........

The west coast port in Mexico is completely underwater. Hopefully no one had a vehicle at port. I'm assuming this could delay deliveries on the west coast of the US.

I'm not sure if cars going to Colorado go through the east coast or west coast port.

We are on the same ship, just got off phone with both dealer and Genius and they confirmed it “was” due into Brunswick on 14th. However it’s anyone’s guess when we’ll get our cars due to Port strike as they both confirmed that settlement.

Interesting the Brunswick Port website moved the Courage arrival date from the 7th to the 5th, have no clue why, maybe just to sit there until the strike is over

Yea, I'm on the same ship, also told Oct 9, Baltimore. Mine is actually an M240 but there is a lot more activity on the M2 threads :-).
