am not talking about laws and truck classes elsewhere. I am talking about our own truck classifications. In the US, class 7 and 8 trucks are considered heavy duty. Any truck with a GVWR between 26,001 and 33,000 lbs is a class 7 and any vehicles over 33,001 GVWR is a class 8. The F750 has a GVWR between 32,000 lbs(14,500 kg) and 37,000lbs (16,700 kg) depending on the configuration. So here, it is a heavy duty truck regardless of your opinion.
So 80% is false even if you are only counting class 8 vehicles without Ford. Peterbilt, Kenworth, and Navistar make up 43.4% of the class 8 market not counting class 7 which is also heavy dut
Seeing I have been using Global classifications all along your defintion of " Truck" does not exist outside NA. So tbe F750 would be a MDT, as some of those Japanese Trucks have GVWR's of 50,000lb but are are MDT's
Since you are talking about the US truck market, then you would have to go by our truck class system. Just like we would have to go my Australias licence class definition of trucks if we were talking about Australias truck market. I would not use US truck classifications to discuss Australian truck market.
