April Trailer Orders Close a Strong Order Season

The October to April trailer industry order season gained 25% over the 2012-2013 season according to ACT Research.

Most of the strength came from dry and reefer vans. “April net orders of 26,390 rose 20% year over year,” said Frank Maly, Director – CV Transportation Analysis and Research at ACT. “

Cancellation continued to be insignificant, pointing to firm orders in the backlog. And the backlog is up 30% from a year ago,” he added.
