Just saw a truckload of Camaros heading west down M-59 in Clinton Twp, MI....25 miles north of Detroit !! Sorry no pics...he went by too fast to snap a pic on my cell. Had to get back to work from lunch, so I could not chase him down. No April fools joke! For real!

I work near the junction of I-40 & I-35 and right next to a major rail line. I've got my camera ready. I can't wait to see them for myself!

I will ask my wife to bring the camera to dinner. We will be right on M-59 at I-94 and the place has glass across the front overlooking M-59. Maybe we can catch another load heading down the road this evening.

I did, I just figured I'd get that obligatory post out of the way

I'll bet we finally get threads any day now about people taking delivery of cars. I don't have one ordered yet, but I would really like to see threads about people's reactions to driving one and what are the actual likes and dislikes of their new cars, and less about naming cars and whether Camaros are boys or girls.

If a truck is in Michigan, how long before Michigan dealers will be unloading cars? Later this week? I wouldn't be surprised- there's no reason the General would want to delay that I can see.

What happened to taking one for the team?

j/k

So is it safe to say you guys closest to the plant are getting yours first

Its only a 5 hour drive to Oshawa from M59 and I94. I'd guess the dealer will have them to the customers by tomorrow.

I saw 2 LTs within 2 minutes of each other today on I-75 near I-696, a Yellow and Silver...and I definitely slowed down about 10 mph to extend my glance

Not to mention the Victory Red with White Rally Stripes I saw yesterday too

Cyberfan · 04-02-2009, 12:46 PM

Just a bump to see if anybody has seen other trucks or dealers taking delivery of cars. I would think some dealers would have some cars today!!

justmeron · 04-02-2009, 12:57 PM

I travel I 80/94 every day going to and from work. I look at every carhauler and even in the truck stop parking lots. No luck yet. I live close to Chicago and one dealer on here stated that Gary IN. is a hub for rail shipping.
