Dry Van inquiry

Good day everyone,

I was curious to see what options are even viable right now for trailer purchases or even lease.

I've been offered a trailer at $85K, which is just demeaning. I've tried to inquire more about the ATRO vans and still waiting for a thorough answer from one of their dealers in WY, but as much as I've read about them, they don't sound promising.

What options even exist at this point? Wait until we are past the flippers market where people want 20k profit on a 10-year-old trailer? What are the major manufacturer brands saying when it comes to turnaround time after an order has been placed, and what price tags are they slapping on them?

Thank you for any kind of responses!

 

I'll try to extend my reach there as well. Throughout the years in the logistics, I've made a couple of friends and reached out to them to purchase their old equipment but all of them told me the same - I'd rather sell it to someone else and make a quick buck, than profit off a friend. I'm torn in a way...
