I’m the particular type of person that likes to know where my things are. So when I got my Saab, I did my research and found the website that Saab uses to ship their cars to the US via boat. Since then I have been early awaiting for my VIN number so I can find out exactly where my car is in the world.
Today, I got my wish. I got the schedule of where my car is in relation to the schedule. Oh and I got my VIN.
Order Entry: 09/20/06
Released to Production: 09/25/06
Production Completed: 10/10/06
Dep. Date, port of loading: 10/16/06
Shipment, departure date: 10/14/06
Arrival Date: 11/11/06
Arrival date at Dealer, calc: 11/20/06
Since I was able to get my VIN# and track it..and since I was able to find the Vessel name (see image below), I figured there HAS to be a site that tracks where cargo freight liners are located in the ocean. Sure enough, I found one. The boat with my Saab hasnt been updated in 11 days (just off of florida). But it is cool to see it moving closer and closer…
