First time I got a VIN, it was out of the blue and I had the option to schedule an actual time to pickup in less than 48 hours for dates about a week away. Second time (this past Sunday), I got the VIN a little earlier (it was 8 days before the first day in the EDD range) and I have not gotten the option to actually schedule a day. I'm starting to worry delivery will slip out further, even with a VIN secured.
I guess I already bought a beater for the wait, so it's not a big deal, I'm just antsy after waiting so long and a bit bitter about my original VIN coming during a long business trip.
