Class 8 Used Truck Prices Should Continue to Appreciate in 2012

The update on the used market was reported in the latest release of the State of the Industry: U.S. Classes 3-8 Used Trucks, published by ACT Research.

"Even though prices are showing volatility on a month-to-month basis, they continue to show solid growth for longer-term comparisons," reported Steve Tam, vice president-commercial vehicle sector with ACT. "We expect that pattern to be the norm though 2012."
