Schedule Update on My Sprinter

Sportsmobile told me that many of their customers’ Sprinter orders are having the same schedule delays as mine and suggested that I not be surprised if there are more delays.

I can’t help wondering about the cause of such delay and scheduling inaccuracy. My van order was placed in the Mercedes-Benz queue about six months ago. What could happen to cause delays on such a long notice schedule? I have yet to think of a reason that suggests anything good about Mercedes-Benz management. I hope there is one.
