I count 8 dealers in Mexico. I guess they could transport cars from San Diego, but Lazaro Cardenas is the largest port in Mexico, so why not use it? Maybe it wasn't a great idea when the port was controlled by drug cartels, but the MX Navy kicked them out in 2014.

I'm fairly certain that the Phoenix Leader is headed to Emden as well. It has west coast destinations.

Thank you for the info. Def will keep an
eye in that ship then as well. It’s currently moored in Belgium so Perhaps Emden next. 🤞

Yep, it should be headed directly to Emden in the next day or so. And bonus, it is hitting Emden before Bremerhaven. So it should load up mostly with cars at Emden. Whereas the boats often stop in Bremerhaven first and load up with other cars. Leaving not much room for Emden cars. It is somewhat surprising how few boats end up going to the west coast. After Phoenix Leader and RCC Compass, it's gonna be a while. Let's hope we get on it. My car as been at Emden port since the 3/6.

Thanks for the update.
Where is your dealer?

Did anybody else get an update on TYD this morning? They're reporting my car is in Emden but somehow also has a checkmark next to almost all the steps even though most have no dates. To paraphrase George Costanza, "it's a step skippah"

Just curious if you have a VW shipping schedule showing this ship on its route for this month? I have both the east bound and west bound shipping schedules and the Pheonix Leader not on either.

PL's scheduled ETA in SD 4/19. Lines right up with my dealer's schedule and TYD vs the RCC Compass itinerary. I guess we will soon find out...

Good to see you got an update. I bet check marks just error. Perhaps that tracking through France must have been on its way to the port. No updates on my TYD yet. Still shows I was to be in port March 9 grayed out. Other dates still holding to basically align with the recently reported Pheonix Leader ship thats supposedly is heading to SD. We should all know more soon.
