Yes, because whatever part you are in is always the hardest , but no because at least you have a set date for production to start. After the car is produced, everything after that is just total luck, bad luck, and randomness. You hear stories all the time of people's car waiting for three weeks before it gets on a boat, or not getting released by the EPA for two weeks on arrival. That production is the last certain date you have, enjoy it

And as far as a dealer or anyone else giving a projected delivery date, that's a little disingenuous on their part: all they are telling you is how long it usually takes, not any info specific to you. The logistics post-production are not prearranged and depend on many different circumstances that are constantly in flux. So, cross your fingers for me and I'll croos my fingers for you, and hope we all get our cars sooner than later.
Amen !
