Fleet Truck Friday: Concern That Product Availability Constraints For MY-2022 Will Be A Repeat Of MY-2021


The 71st State of the Fleet Industry video produced by Automotive Fleet offers an updated look at the state of the fleet market as presented by AF Editor Mike Antich. Today's topics include: - 2022 model year gives every indication it will be a continuation of product availability constraints experienced in the 2021 model year. - Fuel costs are up double-digits, but total gallons purchased have declined. - Replacement tire costs are up 3-10% depending on the type and size of the tire. - Upward pressure on maintenance costs as vehicles are being kept in service longer due to the unpredictability of obtaining a replacement vehicle. - Ongoing shortage of replacement parts increasing vehicle downtime at repair facilities.
