Mine's at the port! :) .... how long?
For those of you who have gotten yours - or dealers who often read this forum...
How long from port to delivery? It's been at Long Beach port since 6/6 - so over a week already. And it's coming to Toyota HQ as I work there. Another few days? Any ideas? Suspense is killing me! haha |

Why is it sitting there so long since Toyota's HQ is only 10-15 mins away?

I would think they could get it to you within a day. Wonder why they're holding it there. Maybe they're waiting for more allocations to show up so they can deliver multiple cars to different dealers in the area using one truck? Wouldn't it also need to be PDI'ed?

I got mine within a week after it has arrived at the port. I feel you, dude. The waiting was hell.

Yeah, it's been received and inspected -- no damage found.
Wonder if maybe there's a shortage in any of the port accessories - like wheel locks or something dumb... |

Asphalt.
I somehow got someone else's cancelled order... so instead of August - at least I get mine sometime in the next 1-2 weeks. Guess I can't complain much... What's your experience w/ cars at TMS -- how long from status showing "arrived at port" to delivery? |

Ok.... I got to the bottom of my own story.
FRs were on some sort of Port Hold... my guess is - that Owner's Manual recall... they were waiting for new manuals. I should have mine by Thursday

I was told mine is in port too, I was able to get a Raven after someone backed out to get another color. (thank you whoever it was!). They said it takes a good week for it to reach the Dealership from Long Beach.
