    Trailer prices are really high right now. Will they eventually come back down or has the benchmark been set? What do you guys think?

    Until supply is greater than demand, prices will hang where they are.

    Once the dust settles out here some fantastic deals on lightly used equipment will be available no doubt.

    Inflation. Pundits are pointing out that inflation has been so bad, it wiped out all the gains of raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour. I heard on the radio this morning that SS has had a 6% COLA increase.

    Don’t think for a minute the trl mfg’s are not capable upping production. They are seeing record profits by keeping supply tight. When the economic boom goes bust they prices will sink.
