hey guys i was wondering how long does it usually take fedex to deliver a package when it's on route? my package left on the truck at 7:13 this morning (cental time). it is now almost 2p.m. how much longer can i anticipate to wait? i'm going psycho. the package contains an orion 2500d, rca's, car alarm, and connectors. (i think that's it). my in-dash was shipped out from ohio yesterday. thanks.

I think he means the delivery center..... and it just depends on where you are on their rout. It could be as late at 6:30.

gr. dammit. i hate having to wait that long. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

ups usually has my package at my door by noon delivery day. i always prefer ups. dhl is really quick tho. got my package to ohio in 2 days ground for less than $20. dhl wasn't available from ohio tho, that's why he went with fedex. *sigh*.

*edit* also, is it possible they could deliver to the wrong house? there's this old guy that lives down the street from me, same street numbers but different street name. (the street is kinda like a U shape and the street name changes right between our house and the neighbor's). is it possible they might drop it of there? wouldn't the old guy say something tho?

UPS usually trashes packages.. Fedex is much kinder to fragile items.

hey guys i'm back!! well guess what finally came at 5:30 last night?? my new rca's (for 2nd amp) my orion 2500d and my viper 791xv car alarm. hehehe. god i'm so excited. now i just need fuses. i'm still waiting on my concept in-dash flip-out (should be here saturday if not monday). and who would've known asking a coworker of mine if he had carpentry skills would pay off. he's willing to help build me an amp rack!! and he knows someone who can do some fiberglass and someone who can re-upholster my seats. wow. so much i wanna do but not enough time or money!!!! just thought i'd share my excitedness and anxiousness. later
