Actually if you check the numbers you will find that GM (Chevy/GMC) have a combined year to date sales gain of 1.68%
Ford has a year to date gain of 1.9%.
Ram has a year to date gain of 21.4%.
Year to date
Ford - 305,265
GM twins - 274,945
Ram - 170,711
May sales
Ford - 68,520
GM twins - 64,074
Ram - 37,131
Ford has still outgained the GM twins slightly for the year. Chevy has a net loss of sales for the year to date and is only boosted by the GMC. Ram is soaring and gaining rapidly on both.
For the month of May the GM numbers look good. But not yet the "top seller".
RAM is getting "conquest sales" with growth numbers like that. At the expense of mostly GM.
Can you please quote your source of "conquest sales" and methodology to calculate? Was it that there previous new truck was GM? Was it that there previous new vehicle was GM? Was it if they owned a GM truck (purchased used)?
Until you provide your source, I will just believe that this is CKNSLS internet babble!
RAM-hasn't released this information. When you have one brand seeing record increases and one brand going "sideways" in sales it's not hard to see. You have heard that GM ordered a emergency redesign in their new Chevrolet trucks-haven't you? They see the same thing I am saying and I have read where Chevy dealers are telling them they have lost sales to RAM.
In the mean time believe what you want while you watch RAM sales go through the roof.
BTW-this is coming from a Silverado owner.
