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. 

Most ridiculous thing you have posted. What are you going to be talking about a " Big Ute" when you are talking about a F350?
No your classifications are NA only, they are totally irrelevant to anyone outside NA. Most of your " Trucks " would be classified as cars or Pickups, your medium duties would be light trucks
So you're really do not have much I can actually be classified has a truck. Pickups would be a better name for what you term " trucks"

Well of course our classifications are NA only. They were made for our laws, regulations and how we use our trucks as I have been saying. This is does not in any way mean that a either of our trucks "suck" or need to be fixed. It just means that they are designed and built for the needs/wants of their market they are in and may not be as useful in other markets. So it doesn't matter what the classifications are in other countries, however, if you are trying to dissect US heavy duty truck market share then it is best to use US truck classifications(which is class 7 & 8 here), not Australian licensing classifications and terminology.

Let me ask you something. Would expect an Australian truck make to design/build a truck to US laws and how we(the US) uses our trucks?
No, that would be asinine just like it would if a US company built a truck to Australian specs. Our trucks are not and will not be the same and neither will our terminology. No need to down our trucks, just because they don't meet your terminology and usefulness in your market standards.
