Why would anyone buy a truck with an aluminum bed that punctures so easily? Guess those Chevy ads are a success. Ford messed up big time,

Not sure if that was a joke. But you may need to re-evaluate your fanboy stance soon. GM historically makes fun of others technology only to quietly incorporate it into their fleets at a later date.

Also may want to rethink it, as Ram beat Chevy out for second place last month. so instead of catching up. Chevy is falling farther behind, Inspite of their giveaways.

Yeah geez! I wouldn't let my step cousins brother in law be seen in a Chevy. They're going out of business!

Nah. I don't see it. but they are third,(Chevy) and fourth (GMC) in the big three in truck sales for that month.

I think you meant in Full-Size Pickup Truck Segment.

If you were talking sales of all vehicles called Trucks (Light, Medium, and Heavy) by the EPA, it would be Ford, Chevrolet, Toyota, Jeep, Honda, Nissan, Ram, GMC.

If you meant Pickup, it would have been Ford, Chevrolet, and Ram.

Nope. Ram out sold Chevy that month. and GMC was again a poor 4th. Hey. I didn't do the story, I just read the report.

From the Detroit Free press. Oct 7

Fueled by the industry's highest incentives, Ram outsold the Chevrolet Silverado last month by more than 2,400 trucks, making it the second most popular pickup brand in the U.S. for the first time in at least five years.

The escalation in pickup incentives comes as overall U.S. industry sales have started to flatten or fall slightly and concerns rise about higher incentives that could harm industry profits.

In September, Fiat Chrysler's Automobiles boosted the average incentives for its Ram pickups by more than $1,000, or 29%, to $7,082 per unit, according to J.D. Power data obtained by the Free Press.
