I think its more difficult now, than its ever been Jon.
My advice, if you see something you like and within your budget go for it, as whats whats here today maybe gone tomorrow. One quarter you think AP’s are dropping or leveling out, the next quarter can then see significant increases.
Delivery times vastly vary between manufacturers and the type of vehicle you want Its also worth checking with dealers, to see if they have your chosen vehicle in stock or on order they would allow you to put your name to.
