But why/how the leak through of the other batch before?

For what it's worth, but SA had commented something originally about "just before Christmas" when they had gotten the first pass of training before he knew the build week. So I wonder if they are trying to do something like that.

@M3tallicar


I'm on that boat too damn it!
Did you see the Jupiter spinning in circles just outside Southampton?!..
I was worried the ship was in trouble

Mine was suspected to have been on Cepheus leader with another member here.
I was stoked to see it was en route to US yesterday, but my CA confirmed with me that it is actually on Jupiter leader... bummer

Iguazu hung around Southampton for a while and I was getting nervous it might be impacted by UK lockdown. Maybe the Jupiter Leader couldn't unload UK-bound cars and had to drop them in Germany before crossing the pond.

I'm speculating but at least our ship is en rt to Brunswick

Also on another note when I had called to check out that rumor about EPA testing.. The sales manager told me before I even asked about info on the status of the car (boat info etc) So he already had the info prior to my call, which was why he was pretty surprised about that particular rumor.

Are you baltimore for port? I know my spec sheet said BPOA. So I'm wondering if I'm Paradise Ace as well.

No Kidding.

Word is that there is a congestion issue at the port. They are taking cars offsite, and then returning them when they have a vessel. Apparently it's getting better and cars are starting to move again.
