I sure hope it is me, not so I can gloat, I just want the dam car.

Me... a product of a spoiled generation I guess.... In actuality, I have been waiting 20 years for this car, ever since I got my drivers license...

I think it will come down to the over-the-road transit time, how long it will take the car to get on a carrier once it is off the rail...

That was quick! I ordered mine Sept 30, so you're a few weeks after me and may be getting it sooner!

The only thing I may have to wait for, once it gets to the dealer, is the spoiler they are adding on for me. But I found out that I can order one online and either have hubby put it on, or get a shop to put it on cheaper than what the dealer is charging, so if they tell me I have to wait a few more days, I'm gonna tell them to forget it.

I took srwiltshire's idea and programmed the entire number with pauses into my iPhone. Works like a charm.

. Thanks for the idea.

Btw, my car arrived in Port Robinson, Canada this morning at 6:40 am and departed there at 7:28. Wonder what the next stop will be? Somewhere in NY I guess. Wonder why they make so many stops?

Thanks Karen! Just got another CamaroTracking email this morning with my Rail Number!!

I am catching up to the rail tracking crew ...

Now, I'll be calling that automated phone system too ...

Now way! ... Did they put you in the caboose??

On the bright sight, based on location, you'll probably still get it before me!

Hope you get your number today. Keepo an eye out for that CamaroTracking email or check the site often. Mine seems to be changing a lot over the last few days.

BTW.... Nothing personal, but I have always hated driving through Georgia ..... Seems to take forever, it's one big azz State .... LOL....

I'm from SC orgionally, so I don't take it personally, plus it takes me a heck of a lot longer to drive thru Floridia, damn long skinny ass state!

My understanding is that it's where the car is unloaded and put on a truck. Five days to Houston isn't too bad. I should have my car before Thanksgiving!

How did you find out you were on a train? Camarotracking still shows mine as available to ship and hasn't updated since 11/9. :(

I wasn't getting updates for a few days, then they just started coming again every day. It was available to ship yesterday, then this morning changed to in transit and gave me a rail number. When I called Union Pacific the system just stated that it was loaded with an estimated arrival of 11/17 at 1:29pm.

Mine did too ... Then all or a sudden it started changing one or two times a day ... This morning it cam back with this (see below) ... Took a few days for it to kick in and start traking more rapidly. I just kept checking since everyone here seemed to be getting them but me ...
