Fleet sales trends are on the uptick. If you have plans to add a new truck to the fleet, be sure to plan ahead, so you don’t end up in a holding pattern waiting for your new acquisition to arrive. Many major trucking manufacturers have submitted second quarter U.S. and Canada earnings reports that reflect an orders increase of over 44% in the first six months of 2017 compared to the same period last year. This compounding fleet sales trend is expected to gain even more traction as the economy continues to strengthen.

Still, the jump in truck orders isn’t likely to increase heavy-duty truck production in 2018. Although the fleet sales trends and the current truck order numbers represent the strongest volume in 22 months, many are still forecasting a drop in truck production which could create a gap in the marketplace.
