    Well, not sure if you mean me or not but according to Jeff, mine was on that boat and was offloaded yesterday. No word on actual delivery/availability date so I'm sitting tight for now.

    I do owe you a debt of thinks though for your thread that allowed me to know about the Silver IV Jeff had. Very much appreciated :D

    You are welcome. I agree. I will believe it when I see it. Looks like end of May. The NW is getting them before Calif supposively. Take that with a grain of salt.

    Oh, then that must be me! ;)

    Yes, I have a confirmed Blue Ribbon III with Nav waiting for me at the port! I got a call about 20 minutes ago, telling me I may be able to pick it up next weekend (like the 23d)! Nick in McMinnville was wonderful!

    I thought these google maps images could in some cases be a year old and sometimes even older. The one of my house is from at least 2+ years ago, and I live in a major city...

    Jay, yours changed. To the better. As of today, it shows dealer ETA of May 26. These dates can be notoriously off though, so in the next week or so, I'll keep checking and see how much more it changes. Usually, it will change to a date range of 3-4 days. That is when I would buy the plane ticket :D

    Jeff - Jay.

    You probably don't realize this but...this communication in front of us "left out" folks is very mean.

    It's like Jay is the lottery winner and Jeff sold him the ticket. And you guys are talking about your good fortune - right in front of the losers.

    Not nice.... :mad:

    Since I see no smiley's I can only assume you are serious? Yeah I was very fortunate I've said that. And Jeff is far and away one of the best salesmen I've dealt with. So if you are willing to go get it, there are opportunities (yeah 600 miles to get this one).

    BTW, there are two V's coming to Memphis not sure about packages, but Jeff can see 'em.

    :D

    Maybe so, but my point was that you'd see the same thing today as two years ago :D I was surprised when I looked up my address and got a street level view ... it's amazing.

    FWIW,
    Jay

    Jay -
    Total kidding, and very happy for you. I'm working with Jeff as well, and I'm well over a 1,000 miles from his store. I agree with you - he's a wonderful rep of his dealership and Toyota.

    Now...I'll give you both a :):)

    Sure hope to give Jeff the business. Oh, here we go again - :)

    It doesn't bother me and I am waiting until Safety Connect comes out, which is months away!

    In the meantime, this is entertaining.

    I wonder if that means that after going through the Panama Canal, the Kentucky Highway goes to Newark first and then unloads south on the return trip? I've been trying to find some info on this thru google but no luck...

    Jeff,

    Not a problem at all. Matter of fact it's great to hear success stories.

    But I'll expect that pack of Oreos in the upper glove box when my Prius is prepped and delivered....

    Looks like my car was on the CONTINENTAL HIGHWAY, but can't seem to track that anymore. Not sure it's relevant, car's already in port and dealer's inventory. Due date June 5.
