Here is a newsletter that we published that talks about the new fuel economy standards. Overall, as long as these changes dont run the price of the cabs up anymore, the energy savings could be good for the carhauler. The challenge will be the details. Can the manufacturers make these changes without spending millions to retool?
Also-take a look at the 4900 Lowmax information. The Western Star Lowmax is a perfect fit for a carhauler trailer since it is 2" to 3" inches lower than other designs. This could be important when loading the 2nd or 3rd position of a car hauler trailer. Definitely worth a look.
