ETA to dealer Date ??

This has no doubt been asked and answered before but I can't find it. My ETA to the dealer is 11/17. Does that mean it will be on the dealer lot on that date? Or does that mean it will be at the rail yard where it gets dropped off coming from Kentucky ?

Thanks

It's usually a week of date for arrival to dealer, but it's certainly not a promise, though generally fairly close.

That figures, I will be out of town more than likely when it hits the dealer lot. Oh well.

Well, I'm still keeping the faith, but I only have a couple of days beyond the ETA as a cushion. If not, it's gonna sit on the dealer lot for a few weeks before I can get back and pick it up.

That will be a bummer. I know when mine showed up, a couple salesmen were trying to sell mine out from under my salesman, but he stopped them and put a sold sign on it

Well, if that should happen to me, that will make for an awkward Thanksgiving dinner, because the salesman (my brother) will be Unexplainably missing, very possibly swimming with the fishes.

My ETA has been holding solid for 11/12 for a few days now. I know the truck has made it to the rail yard as of Monday. Does anyone know if the trucking companies run on Friday (Veterans Day) and into the weekend? My dad used to drive for Leaseway Transportation hauling new GMs in the 80s and early 90s and I know he would occasionally still be on the road on a Saturday but it was rare.
