It means no Aloha. Hopefully it means it's been unloaded from the transportation truck.

It's better than "Obstuctively parked and towed!"

Correct. It's at the end of the rail line. Now I assume it will be on a truck for the final leg. Mine sat for two days before being delivered. I am about 250 miles from the railyard where it was constructively placed. In any case, you're close!

Thanks Gary

I found the info on a camaro forum using google. The train made decent time it left the flat rock plant a little after midnight on Saturday. It's about 125 miles from the dealer.

Cool. You should have it for a nice break-in session this weekend.

I am, it's only about a ten mile drive. Of course we are supposed to get rain most of this week.

Perry you are **** of luck, I just off the phone with a local dealer and they told me the Boss program was completely canceled. All cars are being recalled that are in route to the dealer and they will announce soon all existing owners will need to turn them in for a full cash refund.

I asked why and he said that it was a complete failure because the Boss does not have Sync, automatic, nav and a backup sensor. He said the engineers forgot people need to work a nav system at 135 MPH. They are going to release a new Boss in 2015 with an auto and V6 and 4 side-pipes for better sound out of the 6 banner but with a shaker 1000 and a back seat full of speaker you will not hear the car anyway.

Glad to see the engineers are listing to us

If they were really listening the boss would not have power windows and a few other options. No LX 5.0 coupe stripped down anymore.

Thank you,

I learned a little more.

Constructively placed is when the railcar is at it's final destination but there is no room for it to be unloaded.

Placed at customer is when it is in position to be unloaded.
