I am in central new york and am wondering if my Camaro will be shipped down on a rail car before it is sent to the dealer. Thanks.

Mine was shipped by truck to Rochester, still took 10 days to be delivered after it was built. 11th day it was in my garage.

Do you know how many of those 10 days the system was bayed for, or was all that shipping time?

It was bayed and moved several times,I believe twice was for travel to the company to add the stripes and another trip may have been QC.
They keep them bayed untill they have a load going the dealer then ship a full load. The drive from Oshawa to Rochester is only around four hours.
I found the details here you go.

Where did you get that level of detail? I am trying to track it on GM Connect but that has not updated in 3 days. Becky has been the only way I can get reliable updates.

MMC · 11-07-2012, 01:27 PM

That was from GM Connects when it was running.

panther2469 · 11-07-2012, 02:12 PM

I think its back up and running

DERZ · 11-07-2012, 02:14 PM

I can log in...but the last time that it says it checked for an update is on the 3rd. Is that normal?
