Filling the Gap * USA - Used is in again.
But are trade-ins answering demand?
Toronto,ONT,CAN -Today's Trucking -4 June 2007: -- Truckers shouldn't expect a huge over-supply like we saw a few years ago, but the used-truck lots may be filling up again... Trouble is, they're emptying even faster, at least in some parts of the country. Which could make it a good time to buy -- like right now -- not a few months down the road when prices are likely to be higher... Here's the situation in a nutshell: last year set records for new-truck sales as many fleets rushed to buy trucks with pre-2007 engines. Not surprisingly, they wanted to avoid the $10,000-or-thereabouts price hike commanded by diesel motors that now have to meet the more stringent new emissions regulations...
