Waiting on New Trucks thread.

Don't you have a Volvo ordered that got set back? They haven't said mine were yet.

 

Yeah that is the bad part. No getting out of that.

 

Yes sir. I no longer have a build date. They just basically said any week it can be built. Salesman checks with Volvo once a week too get updated.

 

Mine were supposed to be the 14th & 21st. Doesn't matter if it's a month later now that the other two are in. They're just going to turn two 2019's into spare trucks anyway.

 

My last build date was 2/21/22 just to give you an idea.

 

Friend of mine from home made plans to fly to Yakima next week to spec a new W900. He found out Wednesday that KW has cut off orders again. He’s still flying out to spec it, then when they open orders again it will get submitted for a 2024 date.

 

Forgive me, but does he have a special connection with the dealer in Yakima? I guess I am puzzled as to the benefit of flying to a specific dealer rather than local KW dealer.

 

The guy in Yakima is good at spec’ing trucks. He knows how to order them based on what you want for the finished project, like you tell him what all you’re doing to it when it’s delivered and he makes sure it doesn’t have stuff on it that will just end up being taken off and thrown in a pile.

 

Thanks, makes sense.

 

I just bought a new apu from carrier dealer had about 50 in stock. To put on my new international HX. Local TK dealer has them in stock but over a month away for install
Carrier was 12k and with a 4 year 10k hour warranty
