Used Truck Prices Increased for the Second Month in A Row
If you’ve been shopping for a used truck and have watched prices climb, you’re not imagining things.
According to the latest State of the Industry: U.S. Classes 3-8 Used Trucks by ACT Research, the Class 8 average retail sale price gained 2.3% month over month in July 2025. On a year over year basis, prices were up 12%.
The price increases have been driven by a combination of factors including:
-
Tight used inventories: There are fewer used vehicles available, which creates upward pressure on prices.
-
New truck market influence: Higher prices for new trucks are impacting the used truck market, as consumers turn to late-model, low-mileage used vehicles as alternatives.
-
Demand from new truck buyers: Buyers who might typically purchase new trucks are increasingly looking to the used market, boosting demand for these vehicles.
