Exactly!!! Let's be happy, the truck market has grown leaps and bounds in the past few years, allowing us to have better trucks, more gadgets, more towing capability, better fuel economy, more longevity, and on and on!!!

Every manufacturer is going to have their fanboys, and that's just fine. And it's even fun to poke at the other guys once and a while, but this constant arguing and ****/mudslinging, gets threads shut down, and is childish. Grow up guys and find a better hobby than being an internet commando.

Well said Marty,

So GM sold more trucks than Ford...by a pretty significant margin. If my math is correct GM Sold 7,475 more trucks than Ford. Not bad at all.

Really looks like Ram got smoked in sales...GM sold nearly 30,000 more trucks than Ram...

Looks to me like the multi truck platform strategy is working for GM in pure sales volume... at least this month.

Maybe I look at things different but isn't the point to sell the most trucks? GM wins.. hands down.

Thanks!

Why is GM down so much especially with a new design?

Because 2K of GM loyalist switched to RAM. Like I said a while back, our snowbird park has more new RAM towing 5th wheels that the other two brands.

Yes, small world. I work in Fishers, that big building you see from I-69 and 116th street. (It will remain nameless).

By chance, do you live on Lynn Drive off 116th street? I come to the office through that neighborhood and pass a house there with a camper. They had a house fire a year or so ago, and just recently got it all fixed up and living in the house again? The camper is parked in the driveway? Couple kids and dog. I get stopped by the school bus sometimes right in front of that house. I often wondered why the owner of that camper left his hitch under the camper in the weather all the time. But since the camper returned after the fire renovation, I've not seen the hitch on the ground any more.

If this is you, I'll stop in after work one day and introduce myself.

not buying another GM until they get bigger wheel openings

How do you get a negative sale for a month? (Honda) Was it lemon law'ed?

Perhaps it was a correction from January when they reported they sold 2.

They are getting ready for the 2017 available spring of 2016.
Keeps many of the features, but has a more truck like look.

2017 Ridgeline

My daughter had a Ridgeline 2008 I think, I found it's performance to be very good. Many tow small TT with them, they had a 5,000# tow rating and we tow all of that plus three adults, two large dogs, the trunk was full. Ready for the trip from Portland, OR to Bolder, CO it sat level and preformed very well.

Nothing surprising
