I have ordered a least a 1/2 dozen cars and trucks over they years and even back when things were humming along normally it could take 4-6 weeks in transit simply due to the huge volume of vehicles being shipped. For the last year+ GM has been building vehicles minus parts and stock-piling them. One press article I read it was some 10,000 vehicle per day. Now as thet enter the shipping system it causing a shortage of trucks, truck drivers, rail cars etc. The RR's have even stated they were cutting back because the system was congested and there were several rail strikes this spring as the workers want more money. There are other commodities besides vehicles that command the attention of the shipping industry. In short,have to wait your turn. They can only move so many, what they don't get to it put off till another day.
