North American January Class 8 truck orders were up 121% year-over-year, marking their second-best level in history, with Canadian sales more than doubling that number, according to ACT Research.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd after a couple months hiatus, orders from Canada were broadly strong in January, up 259% year-over-year,\u201d said Kenny Vieth, president and senior analyst.
\nOverall, North American Class 8 orders totaled 49,100-plus units.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only month in history better than January was a 52,000 unit order explosion in March 2006, at the peak of the pre-buying frenzy ahead of EPA07,\u201d ACT reports.
\nVieth explained that drivers of the current order onslaught are broad-based, with supply-side, demand-side, and exogenous factors all contributing to Class 8 order activity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
