While we are on this subject, when does the manufacture invoice the dealer? Once it hits the dock like it is, or does it have to go through customs? Any ideas?

Most manufacturers generate the Mulroney sticker as it comes in through the port, but IHNI exactly how JLR does it. You know the dealer knows what to expect.

Your truck was made in Slovakia, rode a train to Netherlands and then floated across the Atlantic. It's been a long trip.

We must have posted almost simultaneously, I didn't see this yesterday.

I figure anything to break up the boredom waiting for our trucks is good! Since we can't access Vista2 ourselves, the information about which roro is moving your vehicle must come from your salesman. It is not available until assigned at the outbound port, which used to be Hamburg, but apparently changed to Zeebrugge im the Netherlands recently? It may be both or either depending on the situation.

Dealer called today. They expect the vehicle to be ready for delivery 6/23 or 6/24. Previous delivery date was 7/7. Fingers crossed for customs.
