How do you track vehicles in transit to dealers

[TrucksNStuff]

I found a Tahoe in transit to a dealership. They said it is in transit with an ETA of 31 December. Is there a way for me to track the movement of the vehicle myself or is that something only the dealer can do? I remember when I got a ford there was a way for me to access the railroads website and track movement with the VIN.

Gm uses vinview that only dealers can use and only if said dealership pays to use it. So the dealer is going to be the only way you can track said vehicle.

the railway / transport tracking got "shut down" back in late spring....people were finding delivery yard phone numbers - some were even cell phone #s of employees...so yeah I can understand why the took down the public tracking website

dealer is the only one that could track it now and that'd be a gamble if your salesman even knows what VINVIEW is

Ah fair enough, worth a shot asking

My dealer is a good friend of mine from childhood and he kept me up to date nearly every day once it had been built. Maybe your dealer would be willing to check on it every couple of days for you to keep you posted if you ask nicely?

People are ridiculous. Harassing people isn’t going to speed anything up.
