My new one was shown "In Transit" on 8/15. The dealer told me that did not mean it was actually on the way. Hope to have it for the Caravan, we leave on 8/25. Any hope it will make it ?

Depends on where you live. If you are some place that gets shipped by rail - no chance.

A lot of us in the same boat.

No one really knows.. it's all speculation at this point.. nothing official has been posted one way or the other.. a few sales people have told people is won't be til after Labor Day.... I had a dream they started shipping Monday... ( that's as credible as the other rumors)

Good thing you didn't order a 2014 last year for launch, VIN 3-1000 or so most of them were held for over a MONTH! This is while other much higher VINs were getting shipped and delivered.

My car shipped 06/02/14 and arrived at my dealer on 07/03/14. One of the very few disadvantages to living in Phoenix.

Don't get too antsy and impatient, the car will arrive when it arrives and it will guaranteed be one of the best days of your life
