CKNSLS - Do you believe that pickup drivers are born at birth, buy a pickup at 18, and stay pickup driver for life? Your correlation based on sales increases (including individual records) are only one data point. To determine if RAM is conquesting Silverado sales, you would have to define conquest and measure. For me, a conqest is if a register owner of a Silverado registers a new RAM and another individual registers that same Silverado. If the Silverado owner retains their vehicle, it would not be a conquest.
I am just trying to educate inidividuals on the complexity of the auto industry, and data analysis including correlation.
Thanks for driving a Silverado.
A "conquest sale" does not require the buyer to turn in or sell their current vehicle. Anytime I give out a "Friends & Family" discount number, one of the questions is "Trade in Vehicle" if none then "Current Vehicle". This is to track any and all "conquest sales". Not sure if I can find out the numbers for the Rams but I'll try.
