Topic: GOT YUUR V-8. TIMES?


v8teditor    -- 12-21-2020 @ 11:46 AM
  Has anyone received the Nov/Dec V-8 TIMES yet? I’m getting phone calls from members who have not received their issue yet. I know they are in the mail system but Christmas mail probably gets priority. Let me know when you get your copy. Please be patient.Thanks.

  Like I said in an earlier post --- take some cookies out to that mailbox for your postal delivery person. If it works for Santa to bring you gifts, then it should work to bring you the V-8 TIMES.

And no, I have not received my copy yet.

  I received mine on Friday here in Oklahoma

  I haven't received mine yet in Arizona. Maybe they were shipped with some ballots and got thrown out.

  Ours arrived here in Canada yesterday. Another great issue! Thanks very much.

  Mine just arrived in the mailbox. I used my titanium bubble pack cutter scissors to open the bag and will treat the booklet inside as COVID-19 free now that it is separate just as I would something canned or packaged in a factory. Sorry! For now fast food and even Starbucks touched by human hands in an unsterile environment is not ready for being near the face. Central Texas

  Wonder will never cease as my last 2020 V8 Times arrived in the Bluegrass today 2 Jan 2021.

Fordfan1    -- 01-03-2021 @ 12:45 PM
  Mine arrived Saturday 1/2, Franklin WI. (southeast Wisconsin) Just in time as I was running out of reading material.


nelsb01    -- 01-04-2021 @ 10:16 AM
  Yes, there is a belated Santa Claus............maybe even a New Year's Elf.
The 2020 National President received his Nov/Dec 2020 issue today (1-4-2021)
So, dont give up hope...................

And, it was not damaged.


37V8    -- 01-04-2021 @ 1:12 PM
  My V-8 Times was just delivered, along with 6 other magazines, that probably had all been chilling in a semi trailer somewhere in Michigan for the last few weeks. I know nearly a dozen semis were shown lined up recently at the Allen Park facility

  I'm happy to report receiving my copy of the Nov/Dec 2020 V-8 Times yesterday, Monday, January 4th, 2021.....and IMO, it's the best old car magazine that I'm aware of!!

Don Rogers    -- 01-06-2021 @ 7:28 AM
  Nothing in St. Louis yet!!! (80 miles from the printer) Missouri's postal system is still really scr*w*d up!! It took 22 days to send a priority package from St. Louis to Champaign IL. (150 miles)


TomO    -- 01-06-2021 @ 12:37 PM
  Don, buy your mailman a subscription, maybe you will get it on time that way.

The mail service all over the country is scr*w*d up. The present Postmaster General is an incompetent appointee that thinks he knows more about distributing mail than people who have been doing the job for years. It was bad before and it will get worse.

I just got mine yesterday along with my renewal notice.

Tom


efv8CofAAdmin    -- 01-06-2021 @ 1:12 PM
  Tom;
I hope that you renew before you read!

Happy New Year to you!

And they are getting delivered --- just not as we expected.

TomO    -- 01-07-2021 @ 7:05 AM
  Bruce, the check went out yesterday. I don't want to miss an issue and hope that there are going to be some events this year.

efv8CofAAdmin    -- 01-07-2021 @ 8:19 AM
  One event that I don't want to miss is standing in line for the vaccine!!!

flatheadfan    -- 01-07-2021 @ 12:34 PM
  Finally got it!

The November-December edition finally came today, January 7th. Grand Rapids, MI I can't believe this delay was all the fault of the post office. Does anyone know when the publisher shipped the magazine?

Tom

  I believe that the magazine was printed the first week of December.

Dont feel bad, yesterday (1/6/21) I received a newsletter that was mailed November 13.

  Still not to Spokane.....Everybody else got yours?


Grant    -- 01-15-2021 @ 5:17 AM
  What I don't understand is how our November December 2020 issue got delivered to the middle of nowhere here in Canada on December 21st, but some members in the USA still don't have theirs almost four weeks later.

Perhaps a post office truck carrying magazines somehow managed to get across the mostly-closed international border before Christmas?

Normally our V8 Times gets delivered about two weeks later than copies distributed in America. This is a very unusual situation.

Curiouser and curiouser, as Alice once said.


FordFreak    -- 01-15-2021 @ 5:32 AM
  I've written this one off, as I don't believe it is coming , ever . I am looking forward to Jan/Feb issue now . Fingers are crossed ! - F F

  It is due to arrive one week after the Jan- Feb issue

Tom


efv8CofAAdmin    -- 01-21-2021 @ 1:24 PM
  AND.................since there is information in the Nov/Dec issue that is continued in the Jan/Feb issue, you CAN'T read the Jan/Feb issue and learn about the new 1940 Ford Book being available for sale until you finish the Nov/Dec issue.



Just kidding..............but, the new 1940 Ford Book is for sale NOW at the Online Store.
(I know, I shouldn't be kidding about not receiving the TIMES)

  Missing an issue of the V-8 Times is a serious issue, but we do have to have some fun while waiting. I am also guilty of making light of the situation, because I always like to look on the brighter side of an issue.

  Tom McCarriston in NH, one of our EFV-8 Club photographer's, just told me he received his Nov/Dec copy yesterday, February 3rd. So I told him I'd add him to the list

  Still haven't received my Nov/Dec V8 Times. Mine will take a little longer because my mail is forwarded from Ohio to Florida. I just received a Christmas card 2 days ago that was mailed on 12/7/20! Go figure!

Stay Safe!
