It was finished in september 2009.
It was based upon prices and costs of 2008 and 2009.
The trucks considered were 1,5 to 5 tonners.
The ranges and specifications based upon actual market feedback. The symptoms of 2008 crisis were clearly visible.

I think it's at least partly (aftersales costs, residual value), still valid. Although the sensitivity of the project (financing costs risk, customers stability etc.) may be slightly different.
I think it's similarily actual concerning manufacturer attitude considered as one of Porter forces.

Once more I repeat - this was based upon polish market conditions in 2008-2009 and applied to IC (LPG) trucks

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
