SENTRI
I live here and I am supposed to know this #hit!
However...I purchased a second vehicle, and I am trying to add it to my SENTRI pass
I logged into my TTP portal. Within their web page there is a section where you can add the second vehicle. The vehicle does have a registration
number.
But I have logged into their TTP portal many times, since August of last year.
How,and when, am I supposed to get some kind of notice from the SENTRI people that it is OK to start using the new vehicle with my SENTRI permit? I
have been waiting about 6 months now, and my current vehicle is about to be sold.
I am thinking that perhaps it would be best to just go ahead and use my old vehicle. Then take the registration of my new vehicle to the SENTRI gate
and ask them for a current status of my second vehicle.
The other Idea I came up with is to just go ahead and drive the new vehicle trhough the SENTRI lane along with a copy of my current TTP registration
number. BUt I don't want to give the SENTRI peoplean excuse to take away my permit.
As you SENTRI users know, SENTRI personnel are extremely rude, and use any excuse to confiscate a SENTRI permit.
Thanks for your help!

Last time I added a car I got approval within 24 hours. When you say no registration number, do mean no vin number?. An option might be to spend an
hour on hold to speak to a human. As you noted, they have no sense of humor if you are not in the correct lane.

Log in and update it. I drove thru on accident in my wife's car which wasn't registered and the dude told me to change it that night online. I did.
DONE.
Now, we've waited 1.5 year to get conditional approval for my wife! Still waiting....I blame Trump! JUST KIDDING.

Just have to keep waiting until it shows approval.
I have had approvals in 24 hours and have waited a year for another vehicle. The system is not efficient.

I am willing to do that, however, no one answers the phone at the SENTRI offices.

No one answers the phone ? Boy I'm really surprised.
Don't worry the guy in charge will fix everything. 
Might not need to pay taxes in the future. No one in the office. 
Hope none of you are on Medicaid
The new world order.
Russian language course anyone ?

How does a member get the password for the Off Topic forum? I might want to post there sometime, so that my wisdom might be chronicled

For what it's worth, that is not an off-topic forum in the normal sense (for site consistency, hosts don't usually suspend the rules
for off-topic conversations discussions threads as we do here).
I of course respect Doug's vision on that, but I'm convinced it negatively impacts the site overall.

I'm sorry guys I shouldn't have posted my last post.
Just had my best friend lose his job working for the government for 20 plus years so I was upset.
I'll stick to Baja posts

Thanks for the password, Lencho.
Thanks also to Baja Nomad for maintaining such a forum on this website. In a world where censorship seems to be winning, it is refreshing to know that
there are still some venues where people can freely express themselves.
I know what you mean Ligui, I have friends working for the US Forrest Service, and they are fretting for their jobs. That is one government department
that is near and dear to me.
