Waiting on New Trucks thread.

I saw on the back of a sleeper years ago “Mobile Homeless”.

 

Second one in and ready to go

 

Here's this week's update.

May 13, 2023
389 Peterbilt - 94.........7 389X's
579 Peterbilt - 117
T680 KW - 146
W9 KW - 44
Cascadia - 58
Volvo Family - 72
Mack - 51
International - 43

Big increase across the board from last week with 625 total units for sale which was a 10% increase from last week and 50% increase since I started tracking this on March 25th. This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone with rates hitting lower lows. Nothing more to add that everyone doesn't already know.

I did get wind that my local MHC KW dealer actually lowered their hourly labor rate to $125 (I believe it was $150) because they weren't busy. They actually called my buddy to see if needed any work done. So I don't know if people are skipping on maintenance, MHC was pricing themselves out of work or combo of both. I will say if I have any non-warranty work MHC is the place I go. I think it just goes to show they were/are price gouging along with everyone else.

 

Dang if they where 150 that is still below everyone else that I have seen.

 

Within reason, i don't care what color the driver wants.

 

Nope just as long as it gets to point A and B.

 

Oh no I was agreeing with you lol. As an owner of a 389 fleet, in times like these you gain an appreciation of going to point A and B in the most efficient manner. Never once has a customer/broker asked me what kind of truck we have…just what year your reefer unit is.

 

Seen Nextran has 3 Macks on the lot here in KCMO. 455 HP with 2.79 I believe it was a canceled order.
