Yes, Ford sales are flat because nobody is going to buy one (2014) when the 2015 composite-body trucks are coming off the line. And yes, Dodge is up because as an example, you can buy their diesel truck for $10K less than the Ford Powerstroke - except that after a few years, the book value takes a dump and you lose all the money you saved up front. Each has some attributes, and with the new composite bodies, Ford can still sell heavier models (lighter bodies mean meeting CAFE federal mandates).
