When I ordered mine, they gave me a ball park (low number) and I put mine up for sale as soon as my car showed as shipped. Thankfully it sold in about a week for $2500 more than I was going to get from the dealer.
I bought my Mother's old Santa Fe for $1000 and drove it after I sold my Cadillac until my Camaro came in. I still drive it when it's raining/I need to haul my 3 kids around for something.
Even if you don't have access to a second vehicle if you sell your current vehicle, you still come out ahead to get a rental for a month and pocket the extra off of what the dealer will give you on trade in. You have to make the call if you want to risk it of course.
Good luck!
