Class 8 orders drop in May
Dip not unexpected, as it heralds the beginning of the annual “summer order slump,” according to one industry analyst.
North American orders for Class 8 trucks dropped to 16,800 units for May, according to data tracked by ACT Research; a 30% decline from April, the firm noted.
