Mine's moving in the opposite direction on a truck, and the weather is supposed to be very good here for the next week or so. They don't deliver by rail on the east coast, and it's only an 8 hour or so truck ride.

I know how frustrated you are, as I was in the exact same position. I had spoken to my salesman on Saturday Dec 16th and from what he could see on the computer, my car was still in Bowling Green and he wasn't sure if it would arrive before Christmas. But two days later the car was at the dealership and I picked it up two days after that! So it's amazing how quickly things can change, hopefully the same happens to you as well Foosh and the car arrives sooner than expected.

I agree. Better it stay at the plant and receive some extra attention than have to deal w/ issues at the dealer level. In my case, we've confirmed it's not a matter of awaiting transport, and that it's being held for another undisclosed reason.

Foosh,
Just over a year ago, our '17 GS was "Bayed" for 3 days..... the 2016 Stingray we took delivery on, prior to that (Feb 2016), was "Bayed" for 2 days.
On the more recent one, the GS, I was told they were still awaiting a truck, bayed.... next call I got was that it was on the way, but the truck broke down. Later that same day, got a call that my car would be to the local Gettysburg dealer the next morning. All good
The truck that my car was on stopped at the Gettysburg dealership to take my car off, and next stop was to Kerbeck with the remaining 10 cars.
