Our Q3 Sentiment Index shows that top fleet managers are feeling much the same as they did in Q2 about the basket of 7 key fleet topics we query them on every quarter. Confidence in the ability to acquire vehicles remained near an all-time high, with our Customer Advisory Board members reporting little problems acquiring vehicles. Meanwhile, confidence in service and maintenance is hovering near some of the lowest numbers we’ve seen over the past year with several of the fleet managers we spoke with decidedly negative on the topic. Note that while we are seeing some standard variance from the Q2 numbers regarding our other 7 topics (<- 5%) follow up conversations with our panel indicate that for the most part, fleet had a quiet Summer. Be sure to keep an eye out for our Q4 Sentiment Index when we release it in early December for a look at fleet manager sentiment as we head into the new year. *Mouse over any quarter to see its specific chart.
