Reading Truck Body details price increase next year

Reading Truck Body announced it will institute a modest price increase for 2014, the first
increase in two years. The changes will go into effect beginning January 1, 2014. Any orders
and quote requests accepted prior to that date will be priced at 2013 rates. The company noted
that the primary factors leading to the new pricing structure were the increasing costs of raw
materials and component parts.

“Due to economic conditions early last year, we felt compelled to assist our customers through
the tough times and hold pricing, but we cannot continue on that path at this point. We are
announcing this pricing change early to encouraging customers to plan ahead and order in 2013
at the current rates,” said Craig Bonham, Vice President-Sales . Visit the company’s website to
