David, the dealer should be encouraging you to do what ever is in your best interest. The M22 has very few options available (at least the way we buy them here where I work) anyway. You can however, select the interior color and exterior accents you like. The real advantage to buying now is for example, if you have a trade in. As time elapses it will go down in value while the cost to dealers of any product whether groceries or RV's will continue to go up, up, up. Also, just so you know, NO dealer should try to penalize you for placing a "spec order" in terms of sale price or the cost to you. It cost us the same whether we have it on our lot or we order it special for a consumer (except the cost difference to us from one model year to another and freight cost, which is minimal). At least this is the way it should be...I think. I encourage you that if you have any questions regarding options, colors and especially time required for manufacturing to ask.
