March Truck Sales Fall 21% March Truck Sales Fall 21% Quote: Heavy-duty truck sales rebounded in March from historic lows the previous two months but were still 21.1% below the results in the same month of 2008. For the entire first quarter of the year, Class 8 U.S. retail volumes lagged behind 2008’s pace by 27.8%, according to the latest survey from WardsAuto.com. Dealers reported a higher level of customer interest in their heavy-duty vehicles in March, as compared with medium-duty models, but the number of actual buyers remains negligible. For the month, original equipment manufacturers sold 8,222 Class 8s, down from 10,419 in March 2008. The first-quarter total of 21,832 units was down from 30,248 a year ago, with all eight major brands posting volume losses for both the month and the quarter. more here>> March Truck Sales Fall 21% __________________
