Just curious, how will you spend the check(s) you are getting?

Recouping savings because I had to spend $5k on a new zero turn last month.


As far as the topic. I am not sure why how much each one is selling matters that much other than bragging rights for your favorite manufacturer. It depends on how you want to look at it. If you want to look at brands only, then Ford wins. If you want to look at all full size truck from the dealer groups then the GM wins. I a not sure if these numbers include mid size trucks. You can also stretch this out past just US sales and look at global sales which Ford will likely win due to how popular the Ranger is globally. But as a I said, it is just for fan boy bragging rights.

I believe one thing that is helping GM right now is their deep incentives they started in February after Chevy fell below Ram in January. They were practicality giving them away around here. Another thing that may have also led to these numbers is the fact that Ford's fleet purchases(which they heavily rely on) are probably really low right now because many fleets may be holding on to trucks instead of getting new ones because of all the uncertainty. Just my opinion based on what we are seeing at our 120+ dealerships nationwide.
