Fender tag

For those that have been tracking the build dates of cars compared to the scheduled build dates, what is the greatest difference you have seen? and what is the average?

Don't get me wrong, I love this stuff, I use to be all over the data tags. I love data, I work in computers and deal with data all the time, I hate it when people input data differently, (Avenue, Ave., Ave, AVE, AVENUE), all technically correct but I like consistency. You can't always have perfect data and have to live with what you have.

For most people in these forums the Scheduled Build Date is good enough if that is all they have. The better way to answer someone's question about the build date of their car is to point hem to the Scheduled Build Date, how to decode it and let them know that is an approximation. In the end they get an answer and are happy.

I think people are getting wrapped up in semantics when most people only care about an approximation.
