how long does the car sit in port?

I would like to know how long does a car sit in port when it arrives until it gets loaded in a truck to be delivered to the dealer?

I'm not trying to be a jackass, but why would you want to know that?

He wants to know when he's going to get his car.

Read this thread, the answer is 4-21 days from port to dealer.

It can take up to a month from the time the ship reaches port to when the dealer receives it. This is dependent on where the dealer is located. Most are not truck from the dock. Instead, the containers they are loaded in are put on a train to a distrubution center. The containter can then be routed and re-routed between trains until it arrives at the unpacking destination. Then it is removed from the container and put on a truck. Each truck may be delivering cars to multiple locations so it may still be a few days before the car arrives. This is why you can get an exact day for delivery.
