    From the Google:

    First out is the all-new Volvo VNL model, replacing Volvo's best-selling truck on the North American market for long haul transport. Sales are set to start in the end of the first quarter of 2024.

    Are you seriously considering an upgrade already or just thinking about it? I'm probably pretty set with my 21 for another 5 years or so, however I sure wish I had known about these new ones before I bought mine. I didn't figure the VNL would get a makeover for a few more years.

    If some how I have a great year this year I would sure consider doing it early. My plan all along was to drive this one for 4 years and order a new one at the 4 year mark before warranty runs out. That way when I sale this one it would still have a little warranty left for the next owner. I got this one on 3/26/22 so at the 4year mark would be idea time to order the new one.

    If your warranty is transferable and you can afford getting a new truck, it's better to make the change around 100K miles/1 year before the warranty expires.

    Where is pricing going to be I wonder. Previous (current) gens are going to take a depreciation hit too when these become available.

    Volvo also shrunk the 760 sleeper too, it went from 70” to 67”.

    I agree that Volvo should’ve went to a bigger sleeper.
