All the Q5/SQ5 made in Mexico going to Houston are shipped via train. The other cars coming from elsewhere that come to the Houston port are obviously via ship

Houston Audi Central (biggest dealer in Houston) receives all their cars by Port from Mexico. Salesman that has worked there for 7 years just confirmed by the phone call I just made. So not sure where your information is coming from. However, I am excited to see that you should have yours very very soon!

Sorry the reason they don’t go by rail is because of cartel. Eventually the plan is to go by Rail but that is a ways down the road.

The cartels... LOL

No rails here, just a bunch of train cars in the way... you know, for way down the road. https://goo.gl/maps/GTTFW54WUZP2

Also from 2017, page 30: https://amf.org.mx/images/pdfs/audi-...cion-final.pdf
Also from 2016, page 25: https://automotivelogistics.media/wp...i_Session4.pdf

So I think you can call your salesman up and say he's misinformed. The only Q5/SQ5 going via truck are going to the port for East coast/Europe/APac

Everything your showing is from 2017 and earlier sir. I also see that huge body of water by the plant LOL. Rail delivery have been put on Hault as now everything is going by boat. I guarantee if you call your dealer and ask for the picture I provide above in this forum it will state vessel delivery. Again just going on what the dealership is stating I’m not the professional and my order is coming from Mexico by boat to Houston.

I decided to add the adaptive cruise control to my vehicle once I went in to finalize my order but it was too late to update the options on the first vehicle so the dealer has to place a whole new order for me.
The second vehicle is supposed to be coming in middle to end of January but I haven't heard of any delays on this Q5.
hello,
have you received your order?
