Since the pandemic, supply chain issues and material shortages have prevented truck makers from meeting dealer and fleet demand for new vehicles. No one knows when these issues will be resolved, but fleets are anxious to start receiving all the trucks they have ordered. Volvo Trucks North American says its 2023 order board is open for parts of 2023. Volvo’s John Carson says allotments are determined in close cooperation with its regional sales force and dealers. Dealers need to stay in close contact with their OEM representatives to ensure they have the latest information on vehicle availability and expected delivery of new vehicle orders.
