I think the week of June 10 is more realistic.

Well, I did ED and my car has to be trucked to Chicago. Judging from other people's experience, I'd be shocked if anyone on Patriot gets their cars before June 2.

I did ED too- I'm not expecting to get mine back until the week of 6/18 or so-maybe even later.

June 2nd will be fine with me. Dealer has to add a few things when it arrives. They are estimating arrival at the dealership on the 31st.

This will be along delivery process because I intend to make sure that EVERYTHING works correctly and all the bits and parts are installed (including oil cooler etc.) and man, there are a lot of bits and parts th check .....

I have been trying to track Asian Chorus but have, so far, been unable to locate it anywhere on the grid. I did find 2 Chorus' but they are not transmitting positional information and I am not sure either is ASIAN Chorus. Will keep trying.

It should be headed into the Atlantic Tonight, so perhaps we should be able to track it shortly...

Hey there Patriot watchers. At is current rate of speed I project that the ship will reach the port of NY sometine late day the 25th. That said, I do not know if it has to sit in open waters till it has clearance or a berth etc. so it still could be 1600 hours on the 26th as projected initially. It just looks like it is making much faster time to the east coast than projected.

My CA e-mailed me and told me "it would really help me out if I could come in and pick up the car on the 31st." I guess he needs the commission in his check for May.

He says the car's due to the dealer on the 31st and he is going to put it at the front of line for prep/PDI. I don't want it to be rushed, but I like the idea that my CA is as motivated as I am to get the car delivered quickly!

He wants his commission this month. He'd eat a log of your sh-t if it would help him get paid...

Thank you for the graphic visual. I hope it does not come to that. Yes, of course he wants to get paid. I'm just happy that he's focused on getting the car to the dealer and back out on the 31st. I know it's a long shot but at least he'll be on the phone trying to make it happen, and will push it through the dealer processes quickly.

The 31st would be absolutely exquisite as my 330cic goes back from its lease that same day !! Timing would be perfect if that worked out for me.
