My Mini is in the “distribution center”!
My status for the mini changed at some point today from en route to at the distribution center (in LA). Yes, I have been tracking it multiple times a day.. It seems as though the tracking system miniusa.com has setup is always a bit behind the real world.
Still, it’s pretty cool to know where the actual car is.. I look forward to the day (hopefully before 2010) where I can log onto ford.com or miniusa.com, completely configure my car, figure out all the paperwork, and then track the day by day status of the building of the car. (all the pictures and video archived on a dvd that is delivered with your car).
Auto manufactures would just need outlets or branches to handle the test driving of the vehicles.. (consider the there’d be no backroom dealing, no shady sales people..
Thinking about it.. that’d be my ideal job, it matches my love for cars with my love for computers… anyone want to offer me a job to make it happen by 2010?
