I'm using the WW web site and it shows that it is leaving today as well. Since you're in PA, your car should be getting off in NYC and loaded onto a truck, right? I'm guessing that since i'm in South Florida, I have to wait until it get to Georgia. Then I'm assuming it'll be arriving by truck....I really want to get it by the end of next week.

force- find out what ship you are on. Look at the ultimate tracking thread under this heading in E90post- its a sticky. I used AIS live (free site) to see when the ship got to port, and sailwx.info to track across the Atlantic.

Sign up for their free site- you can watch movement in and around ports by ship name. BTW, the Liberty is out of New York harbor heading for the next stop.

It asks for a credit card number...I'll just have you give me updates if you don't mind.

kpn, go to aislive.com. On the Map, click the US map, then one of the ports indicated by a star. After you do this, a login screen will appear, allowing you to login or register. Choose register, fill out the page, and you are in.

Good Luck

It works, but it looks like I can only look at that one port in NY. There is no way to scroll around the map so that I can find the ship, is there?

Actually, I saw that I can scroll down and see the Southeast U.S or Northeast...What about the central part? Guess I can't see it when it's going to Baltimore?

Yeah, I thought so too- but we are only 75 miles to Port Newark, and almost all trucks headed west have to go right through our area- easy to get on a truck. BTW, yours is probably in transit- I believe the only VDC on the east coast is in NJ. Check with your dealer- It may be on a train or truck right now.

I believe is a VDC at/near Spartensburg SC. That's where all the cars from Charleston get dropped off.

That's is correct. My CA just told me the ship is on target to be at the port in Charleston, SC on the 2nd. The WW site is showing it will be there by the 1st, and so far, it has been right on target with all of the previous destinations. The CA said there might be a slim chance it will get to the dealership by the 3rd, but most likely the 5th or 6th because of the holiday. The wait is becoming unbearable....
