Late-Model Heavy-Duty Truck and Equipment Values Show Smallest Month-Over-Month Gain Year-to-Date Across Industries
LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Stabilizing inventory levels of late-model used heavy-duty trucks, construction equipment, and farm machinery have moderated the groups' general upward trend in asking values, according to a new Sandhills Global Market Report. Average asking prices for farm machinery and Class 8 trucks age 0 to 5 years are showing their smallest month-over-month increase this year to date, while late-model used construction machinery stretched its slide in average asking values to a second consecutive month. Historically, as inventory finds its equilibrium, auction and asking value changes begin to slow.
The key metric used in this reporting is the Sandhills Equipment Value Index (EVI). Buyers and sellers can use the information in Sandhills EVI to monitor equipment markets and maximize returns on acquisition, liquidation, and related business decisions.
