Viking Truck-Industry Update 6/6/26
Due to rising aluminum costs, Viking Truck will be focusing primarily on steel tanks for our 2,500-gallon truck lineup.
When you put a new aluminum tank on a used chassis it starts dancing around new truck prices
New truck new aluminum tank puts it out of range compared to steel
Our mission has always been simple: provide the best value to our customers while delivering a dependable, hard-working product. Steel tanks allow us to continue offering competitive pricing without sacrificing quality or performance.
That said, we remain strong believers in aluminum where it makes the most sense. For our 3,600-gallon through 6,000-gallon units, aluminum continues to be an excellent fit.
As the market evolves, Viking Truck will continue adapting to ensure we’re delivering the right product at the right value.
2,500 Gallons = Steel First
3,600–6,000 Gallons = Aluminum Strong
Built to perform. Built to last. Built to make money.
