Based on June '15 numbers, these are the HD vs total sales percentages.
F Series:
357,180 sales/HD sales 140,000 estimated = 39%
Ram:
212,716 sales/HD sales 65,000 estimated = 30%
GM Twins:

Truck sales
The numbers you guestimated from the bar are grossly fudged. That bar for Ford is less than half way between 100,000 and 150,000 yet you counted it as being 140,000. It looks more like 120,000 to 125,000. The bar for the Ram is more than half way between 50,000 and 100,000 yet you have it down as 65,000? Huh? Then the GM numbers are half way between 50,000 and 100,000 and you have them at 55,000.
I don't know where in the US that they count half way between 50,000 and 100,000 only being 55,000, but in the rest of the US that is 75,000 which would put the Ram numbers somewhere around 80,000 HD trucks sold.
So it would look more like this
F Series:
357,180 sales/HD sales 123,000 estimated = 34%
Ram:
212,716 sales/HD sales 80,000 estimated = 38%
GM Twins:
376672 sales/HD sales 75,000 estimated = 19%
Sorry my bad. Wasn't anything intentional to fudge the numbers to make one brand look any better than the other! Relax.
I did the math wrong with the lower numbers on the graph.
Also Mr Bock, here's a test for you. Where is PEI?
