This right here. I know M4nication was at Port exactly 1 month before hopping on a ship and I was at 21 days. All the while others from Production weeks after us were just simply getting to Port and hopping right on a ship. Combined with the fact that they can't even communicate to the customer what the problem is. I'm having anger flashbacks from last week for you.

all good my bro, in the immortal words of Elbert Hubbard "Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive."

though it is annoying and frustrating i chalk it up to all part of the journey.

to be totally honest i used to get mad about everything and i still have my moments, but am trying this new passive thing and so far its doing me very well.

I am mad about everything. It's what happens when your biological parents should have never had children, never taught me love, or told me that they loved me.

So since surprisingly I'm a single guy in his early 40s with no major financial responsibilities, to cope with my anger and sadness, I keep buying new cars chasing that high which sadly gets less and less with each new car purchase. With all the down payments and negative equity I had to payoff over the years I probably could have purchased a 991.2 GT3 by now instead of bitching about how I can't afford a Porsche.

Lesson of the day kids, don't have kids if you don't want to love them.

I don't have kids because I can't even take care of myself.

Well thought and said bro, read “the myth of cavern of the nymphs” or “myth of Sisyphus”, tldr some people are too comfortable wallowing than making a change

I don’t even know what’s going on here. I thought we were tracking West Coast bound ships.

Not on a west coast but I do have a bet that a fellow week 24 member on the west coast will take delivery before me since I’m doing PCD delivery. My boat just arrived at Brunswick so let’s see what date the PCD gives me.

Goddamn bro, you need a hug?

But I get that. I'm single, 25 years old, and work my ass off. So I decided to be dumb and spend $120k on a new BMW. People call me crazy, but fuck em. I work for what I have, and I'll spend it how I please. I live in an apartment in Santa Monica and pay all my own bills, so ain't no one gonna tell me how else to spend my leftover income.

As of right now, the last we know of Wild Rose Leader is that it was off the cost of England/Spain almost 4 days ago. We won't get an updated location until it's close to another land mass, which will be somewhere in the Caribbean. Expect that in the next few days I'd imagine

Admins, ban me or close my account or whatever. I don't care. I'm done here. These forums have good people here for sure... but they certainly do also have a bunch of fucking know it all assholes... and yes I'm a fucking piece of shit too.

Everyone enjoy your Beamers... by the way we are all god damn morons because these M cars depreciate like they are the worst pieces of shit on the road....

Bro his comment was directed at me, please don’t take offense to it, we all have different outlooks and experiences, I totally understand your anger and frustration and I don’t fault you for it.

Now let’s get back to tracking these beautiful cars on their way to us

Dude. My god!! Finally!!!

Congratulations!!!!

So as Casone238 pointed out you can use www.shipinfo.net to live track the boat without any subscription. It’s a little clunky but u can see where it.
