Some are currently buying a few used units that are coming in off of lease instead of new units for the next 2 yrs and keep for spare units afterwards. Many for hire trucking companies in Ontario are having trouble to pay their current bills at currently low rates . I feel that in 4 yrs from now we will have a disaster in trucking unless the Fed gov steps in that will result in a truck shortage in 4 yrs that is preventable in my opinion.
