How high will the prices go before people start selling their trailers? I have ten from 2019 to 2021 and seeing truck paper made me think about selling them and then just renting 10 until I can get 2023’s next spring. It’s pretty crazy. I have reefers too but they don’t seem to be as out of hand as vans are.

Not to be negative but you're not going to find anything reasonable now.
On my local Facebook I see a year 2000 trailer for $10,000... with a translucent roof. I see a 99 with bald tires that the Rusted that's probably been sitting for a long time with a translucent roof for $5,000. I see a 2015 utility, which I think is probably kind of a junky trailer to me anyway, for $33,000.
I also see a 2004 Wabash duraplate with air ride for $14,000.
With the rate of inflation that's happening right now and looking forward on to this economy just my own personal opinion it's insane to buy that now.
I thought someone told me you can't even buy a new trailer they are all backordered and the prices I believe have risen on them also.
By the way, I have a 2001 Wabash air ride Dryvan all new brakes tires are 100% new air cans airbags cams bushings drums slack adjusters service bearings everything ready to go.
Only $25,000.Jarhed1964 and Pa_Polarbear Thank this. -
