Help....How much longer till my car gets to Vancouver?

I was just told my car has arrived in Halifax. How long does it take before the car reaches Vancouver and in my hands?

That sucks. My SA originally said end of April when I placed the order. Then yesterday said 2 weeks since the car is in Halifax but it looks like it's not even gonna be here in 2 weeks. Why do they always do that? AAAARRRRGGGGHHH!

Which dealer?

Mine told me about two weeks from Halifax to Vancouver and then up to another week to get from Annacis Island to the Dealer, so to expect 3 weeks. I guess if it comes in sooner, he looks like a hero.

Mine is now on the water...in Halifax soon I'm told! I was told that the train is a real crap shoot. It can be a fairly quick on the train and it will be here in 7-10 days. He has seen it take over 20 days also....love those milk run trains that visit every stop across the country. The one that really suprises me is the week your dealer quoted to get from Annicis island to your dealer. Why would that take a week? You'd think it would there for a day or two at Annacis and then into a car carrier to the dealer. :iono: Two days max? There are trying to kills us addicts that are waiting!

No, it gets worse.
My car arrived in Halifax last Monday so I thought I would call for an update this morning to find out what day it was loaded on a train. It hasn't been yet. Over a week and it's still siting in F%&*ing Halifax.
Looks like I'll be lucky to see it by the second week of May.
I'm not gonna make it. I'm starting to fall apart
