Changing New Truck Conditions Create More Used Trucks to Sell, J.D. Power Finds
MCLEAN, Va., Oct. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- In the October 2018 Commercial Truck Guidelines Industry Update, analysts from J.D. Power Valuation Services found that an increase in the number of new trucks delivered should be creating a higher volume of late-model used trucks to sell.
"We may be near the peak of the new truck order cycle, which means deliveries should increase for a few more months," said Chris Visser, Commercial Truck Senior Analyst at J.D. Power Valuation Services. "This means the volume of trade-ins will increase through the first quarter."
Major findings in the free monthly report note:
- Auction volume increases in September
- Newer trucks entering the market in greater numbers, but pricing remains strong
- Retail volume up moderately
- Pricing mildly lower as dealers receive more trade-ins
- Most medium duty trucks down in September
- Weak month for cabovers and heavier-GVW conventionals
