Crap, I need to catch up! I'll be posting every 5 minutes. I'd do it every minute but those minutes are taken.
Minute 1 checking where the Gentle Leader is
Minute 2 checking the distance from one way point to the next
Minute 3 checking my email to see if my MA has emailed me
Minute 4 checking to see if there are any new comments on NAM
Minute 5 replying to a p ost so that I can reach 4th gear.
Damn, I am busy!!!!

I noticed that. It is the fifth ship in line to cross under the Bay Bridge. I might head over there in the morning before heading to the office in Annapolis...I'm only about five miles away.
I checked into the financing; nothing about 0.0 percent on this coast. The dealer is honoring the 0.9 percent and my credit union is now up to 1.49 for 36 months or 2.49 beyond that. I'll quit while I'm ahead.

Mini on Track is an owners manual with video similar to OL, NAMotoring an app for this forum, your dealer probably has an app, mini link when you get your car. It will show it on maps, other mini, etc. these are just a few.

She'll be 'comin' around the mountain here she comes- toot, toot!!! Gentle Leader is on the outskirts of Malibu (my backyard) according to marinetraffic.com. Interesting, it appears they had to slow down a bit? Their ETA in to Port Hueneme is 2:28 min @ 8.60 knots. Maybe they need to hold back a bit to allow other vessels to clear out as it's not a HUGE port. So, yes, they will be in Port of Hueneme by midnight making their "tomorrow ETA arrival as scheduled. May take a trip to the port tomorrow and check out the Gentle Leader. Who knows, I might be able to get a sneak peak as our Titan comes off of the RO RO and onto USA soil!

My MA told me it takes 3 - 10 days for the car to be delivered once it ports. Are you serious. I think he forgot he told me chances were I would get it this weekend. I'm amazed at what sales people will tel you just to get you to shut up for awhile. REALLY!!!!!
Today he was sure to tell me my .9% interest is locked in. I forward the 0% interest email again to him and said "great that the .9% interest is locked in, But I want the 0% interest now' - MAKE IT HAPPEN!"
Let's see what he comes back with!

I woke up to discover the Honor is in port! Woo-hoo!
I had hoped to get out this morning and take pictures of it passing under the Chesapeake Bay Bridge (scheduled arrival was 3:00 pm) but I can't complain that it pulled in during the night. Now I'm going to hurry up and wait.

I watched her pull into port last night, on MarineTraffic of course. I hope it's a short stay at the VDC for you. I head to Minneapolis by train on the night of the 13th to pick up my Baby on the 14th as long as everything goes as planned. Good luck and Happy Motoring

i may have an extra usb Y cable for sale if my baby comes w/the proper cables (bought an official bmw/mini cable on ebay for about $30, official one that has the 3 rings on the headphone plug).
i'm very excited to see what tech my mini coupe has to offer with me being a computer/tech geek. my goal is to post a full Mini Connected w/Nav overview post here if others are interested (along w/videos) once my baby lands and is receieved
