    Anyone getting new build slots for 2022 ? I ordered a new Wabash back in August 2021 for a Jan /Feb build after I sold my 2021 Wabash.

    I hadn’t been able to place any orders for van or reefer from either dealer I’ve worked with. They both act like they have no idea and hands are tied.

    I think I got lucky. When I was down for 2 months waiting on a new engine from Paccar not knowing if warrantee was going to cover it I cosigned the trailer through the dealer I bought it from so he made a few bucks off the sale. I called him back a few weeks later and told him I'm back in the market for a new Wabash as he new my story and when he got the build slots he gave me 1, I think he only had 5 for Q 1 2022.
