Whats getting "worst"?
You tell me, if you can review the actual numbers instead of spreading sensationalistic "doom and gloom"...
YTD sales comparison
The numbers represent facts, your predictions are nothing more than speculation...and they fly in the face of the facts.
We will see who is correct. PLENTY of states (and cities/counties) are NOT replacing their fleets. They are sticking with units and keeping them on the road. People are getting less and less for their $$ and the last thing they are doing is thinking about new rigs. Esp ones that are $30-50k for a half ton truck. There is NO money floating around. IF you truly think that year to date is worth anything (like for the REST of the year) then fine. Get ready for reality. No "gloom and doom", just reality.
Back to OP, CAFE needs to go. So does the EPA and the rest of the agencies that are preventing something that could actually benefit someone.
