The inventories in the table above do not include truck chassis inventory financed through a floor plan financing agreement, which are recorded separately on the balance sheet. The Company takes title to truck chassis upon receipt of the inventory through its floor plan agreement and performs upfitting service installations to the truck chassis inventory during the installation period.  The floor plan obligation is then assumed by the dealer customer upon delivery.  During the fourth quarter of 2021, a separate financing agreement was entered into that does not pass title of the truck chassis upon receipt of the inventory. As a result, most of the floor plan truck chassis previously recorded on the balance sheet fall under this new financing agreement, and only the trucks still covered under the previous floor plan financing agreement remain on the balance sheet. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $4,459 and $1,211, respectively, of chassis inventory and $4,459 and $1,211 of related floor plan financing obligation, respectively. The Company recognizes revenue associated with upfitting and service installations net of the truck chassis.
