Budman:
My last few VinVisions show my car (#8H300713) as being "KZ" on 7/05, having a "Paper Receipt" on 7/07, and being "Staged For Shipping" at Pillete Rd. Windsor" on 7/08.
But it shows no "Future" like most other VinVisions that I've seen.
Do you know how to translate this VinVision information into any kind of concrete arrival date to my dealer in Cincinnati?
Thanks.
MWC

Hey BUDMAN,

Long time no see. How's The car doing?

Could you check on my car? Here is the last line of my most recent VV...

Current
.. Paper Receipt 07/07/2008 09:40 AM EDT VASC - Windsor Pillete Road, ON


I was thinking I would be on the train with Andre, but unless Dodge forgot to update, it appears that my car may be getting passed over. Please use your magic and see if you can get my car moving.

Thanks, Dave VIN 8H302160

Hey MWC,

Looks like we may be in the same boat. No future on mine either. Let's hope BUDMAN can get some info.

Good Luck,

Dave

Hello Everyone from the Republic of Gerogia! It is hot here! Anyways the internet connection is very slow and very shoddy! So I did not read the last 50 pages but I hope everyone is getting there Challengers! If one of the VINVISION HEROS could PM me a current updat that would be great and the next time I get on I hope I am in shipping!

Dave:
If you think this waiting game is bad, wait until you get the "False alarm" delivery notice.
Last Thursday, my dealer called me at around 3:30 p.m. and told me my car was on a truck on I-75, about 30 miles south of Detroit, and heading towards Cincinnati. He said it would be delivered that night, but since Friday (July 4) was a holiday, that it would be a few days before I could pick it up.
My most recent VinVision said I hadn't reached KZ status yet, so I expressed some doubt as to his information being correct. He said he wasn't positive, but that the truck driver had told him he had a black Challenger, and he was "pretty sure" that it was my car. He didn't bother to check with the driver for a VIN number.
Well, Saturday morning comes around, and I'm going nuts, knowing I'm getting my car that day. Around 9:00, I get a call from my dealer saying that the car was not mine, and was delivered to another dealership.
So when he calls to tell me it's ready for pickup, I'm going to gobble down a big grain of salt.
Good Luck, and I hope you don't get the "Psyche" phone call.

I have bought several cars from my dealer, but I am not even asking him for information about this one. I am trusting this sight, especially Joani and BUDMAN, more than my dealer.

Good Luck,

Dave

Not sure who know's, but how do I get the railcar number my car is in. I dont know if it was budman that was able to get that information, or if VV will show in under "location".
