Message:: [QUOTE="Midwest Trucker, post: 11778732, member: 223352"]You must be one of the other buyers lined up to take this poor man/woman’s truck. LOL Well, are you talking the 176k for the May trucks or are you talking something else? Those two may trucks are 20k higher then just last month and I also have to take Paccar instead of Cummins. No offense to the Paccar folks but there is nothing but Red paint on my yard for over a decade now. I’m not sure how much cheaper an option Paccar is over Cummins but it’s gotta be at least 5k. So, effectively it’s a 25k increase per truck. I was thrilled to have the “honor” of those two build slots if that tells you anything. The OP hasn’t said what the total cost for his truck is at this point with the increase. The truth is, prices are never again going to be lower then what the current new from factory prices have gotten too. The private market will eventually calm down maybe a year from now but the crap is outta the horse already on factory orders. There is no putting it back in. lol[/QUOTE]
