    that's like asking how long is a piece of string unfortunately. I'm also in the northeast and my mother had a 13 month wait where as my neighbor only waited 2 month it was a stressful time for my mother having to contend with all her medical issues and the stress of losing the car fortunately we were able to get her a mobility scooter so she could avoid being house bound for all that time it all went in her favor in the end so keep your head up and try not to worry (easier said than done)
