Start considering your options today if you’re planning to purchase a bobtail for fall. There may be a lot of unknowns in the world today, but steel prices and chassis lead times for new bobtail orders isn’t one of them.  

Steel Prices Increase

Steel prices have been trending upward for some time, but since early December, prices have gone up roughly thirty percent. However, don’t expect pricing pressure to stop in this current environment.  Demand among the steel-consuming industries is surprisingly robust and inventories are low due to reduced plant capacity from the coronavirus and the steel tariffs which continue to discourage imports.

Long Lead Times

Chassis lead times are out between 14 and 30 weeks, depending on the manufacturer. For some models, this could mean that even if the order went into production immediately, you might not have your bobtail until August. 

Defer Down Payment Until July 1

If your bobtail order is placed on or before March 15, 2021, our partner Westmor will defer the down payment of a new bobtail purchase until July 1, 2021. To help with shorter-term purchases, Westmor is also planning to carry an extensive inventory of bobtails throughout 2021.
