Will you have work for a new Scania next Sept? As far as I know you won’t get a new one before then, at least.

I think it’s longer than that. Our place wanted to order 10x S500s but the earliest was December 2022 and even then there were no guarantees as Scania apparently can’t get hold of the chips to build them along with a whole bunch of other supply chain issues. Prices have gone through the roof as well. Basically up 40% on last year. Secondhand stuff is going for silly money.

No one can get chips at the moment,it is industry wide ,and is affecting not just trucks ,it is anything that needs a chip…
