My car has been sitting in Buffalo, NY for 3 days, but today the status changed, it just said empty, does that mean it has been loaded on a truck or a different rail car, I dont see any rail cars heading my direction (VT).

Second time I drove he gave me the keys told me how to turn off the traction control and said bring it back on it's wheels. I couldn't believe what I had just heard and sure as hell didn't need to hear it twice. Contach was absolutley right when he said F%&*%$# amazing and this was only the six with an automatic. Sorry for what I am about to tell you as it will not make your wait any easier. He was right. When the car mags said WOW they were not yanking your chain...and this was from the six cylinder. The ride and performance was absolutely amazing. I had no trouble breaking the tires loose and the performance was awesome. I saw a salesman 4 days ago when he brought a SS six speed in to fuel it up and he said anyone who bought the SS was probably going to kill themselves. He stepped on it in second gear and he said it damn near was sideways. If you were not as fortunate as I was to drive one and put it through its paces...you are in for one hell of a treat.

i ablsoutely cant wait. i remember what my 4th gen ta felt like and i miss it greatly. just to think my 4th gen had as much horsepower as the 5th gen v-6.

I'm a girl & I have no clue what all the guys were talking about) ...but I got to go for a ride, they didn't!! 600+ HP....... yep...he gave me a RIDE!! It was awesome!!!

That should sound pretty sweet

Guys are far as the train situation goes.. I wish I had a concrete answer for you.. what they do is a total mystery..
mine is still sitting 3 miles from where it needs to be dropped off. my guess is the rail yard it needs to get to is closed on the weekends.. It's the only thing I can figure out...

Phoenix328 · 08-30-2009, 10:06 PM

ok mine says scheduled for delivery at 800pm tonight. it is now 905pm. wouldnt it say delivered to industry by now? instead of scheduled delivery at industry?

SS Man · 08-30-2009, 11:01 PM

My car is should be rolling into St. Louis in the next 30 minutes. Then just a short jump to Wentzville. Still says it will arrive there 6:59 am tomorrow morning. I sure hope it is on a truck real quick!

Phoenix328 · 08-30-2009, 11:07 PM

ok i went on the truck tracking thread tonight and this is what he said.

AAG is one of the largest but by FAR not the only "final" carrier used. Ask your dealer who their carrier is- it will always be the same. We only have online tracking access for AAG but are working on Cassens and Translogic.
so therefore i wont be able to track my car anymore because i dont know which carrier is trucking the car to the dealership. When i called the dealership they said they did not know who is bringing it because it is a different company evertime. so this kinda sucks.

ThunderSS · 08-30-2009, 11:19 PM

crzycicada...
Still sitting in spring... I give up.. going to bed...sitting 3miles from delivery for 60 hours...
