"The average selling price of total reported Class 8 trucks continues to hold up better than expected," said Steve Tam, vice president of the commercial vehicle sector with ACT. "For the first nine months this year, prices were down only 3 percent, relative to the same period in 2012. Earlier expectations were for price declines of between 5 percent and 10 percent," he added.
The report from ACT provides data on the average used price for the top-selling Class 8 model for each of the major truck OEMs - Freightliner (Daimler); Kenworth and Peterbilt (Paccar); International (Navistar); and Volvo and Mack (Volvo). Subscription information on the full report is available on the ACT Research web site.
