Default Will my car be on this vessel?

Dealer advised me the car is being loaded at Emden, but didn't know the ship name! I looked on myshiptracking.com and the only vehicle carrier at Eden is the HEOGH BANGKOK. Anyone else have cars being loaded on this ship? To California? Supposed to leave Emden 2/14, and arrive here in San Diego 3/27. Maybe someone else has more specific information.

Do you have "track my dream"? According to my track your dream,, my car is on Thruxton. Which lines up with the list flyfisher posted. The dealer should know the ship's name.

Mine was initially supposed to be in Bencia later but I guess it caught and earlier boat.

I don't have Track Your Dream, asked dealer about it and he said he doesn't have it either. Frustrating.

When is your car expected to arrive in Benicia? There's only Thruxton and Glovis Sunrise going to both Benicia and San Diego. Dealer says car should enter port of San Diego expected 3/13. If yours arrives around the same time, mine could be on the same ship.

Initially it was 3/24. However with it now saying Thruxton on the "Track your dream" it looks to be 3/11. My car has been hitting the milestones quicker than the original ETA. The site only changes the date once you hit the milestone.

Unfortunately my slot at PEC LA is April, total bummer!

Your car is on one of 3 ships then. I think the dealer will get the ships name soon. I've read the planned ship isn't always the actual ship, and once the car has been on the boat a day or two it gets updated.

Fun fact while you're waiting. The cargo ships burn through ~4000 tons of fuel to ship our cars over. 15 of the world's biggest ships now emit as much pollution as 760m cars. Means we better enjoy them!

Fingers crossed, I think mine will be on Thruxton as well. Delivery date in San Diego is March 9, that's 2 days before yours in Benicia! I wonder how long it takes for the cars to get to dealer inventory once the ship arrives at port.

My dealer doesn't know about/have access to track your dream but based on the screenshot he sent me, I am probably going to be on the Glovis Surnise. I show exit Port Emden on 2/21 with entry port Benicia on 3/27 and dealer inventory (but really PECLA delivery) on 4/10.

Maybe I'll see you at PECLA!

My car is on the Heogh Bangkok per Track Your Dream--currently moored in Emden since 2/1/20. No information yet on when it will depart--expected delivery to my dealer in Houston on 3/6/20. I don't think this vessel goes through the Panama Canal to the west coast.

what was your production completion date? The screenshot dealer gave me shows entry port San Diego 3/13 and dealer inventory 3/27. Hopefully I'm on the Thruxton and getting to SD sooner! And these damn ships go so slow! Captain Philips needs to step on it

My production completion date was 1/30/20. Most vessels seem to go either to the east and Gulf coasts or through the Panama Canal to the west coast (which takes considerably longer).

Dealer confirmed I'm on the Thruxton today. Should hit San Diego 3/9... How long till the car is at dealer and I can pick up once the ship gets to port? I'd imagine a week or so...
