Gm trucks really selling strong !!

Can't argue with the numbers. GM is smoking Ford this year.

GM sells a lot of 2500 trucks too. Lowest cost of ownership for companys.

After two years of full time on the road, why is it that for towing larger 5th wheel trailers the number one truck we see is Ford diesel, then next is Ram Cummins diesel and lastly is the Chevy Duramax.

Accounts and publicity folks can be creative in their counting.

adding all the models up = 1 number. splitting it into the 1500, 2500, 3500 dually etc. probably gives different numbers.

I do see lots of ford 350/450 duallys pulling 5th wheels, haven't really paid attention to how that compares to dodge/chevy.

Im glad to hear it. Not just Gm but I want Ram to sell well and I want Ford to continue to sell well. As far as i'm concerned we all win in a competitive market and we also win if we don't have to fund another bailout.

Absolutely!!! The competition between the brands has definitely improved trucks. dodge coming out with the cummins, ford and the original powerstroke 7.3, GM fixing the big 3 transmission problems by going to Allison and Ford, Chrysler matching them with newer better transmissions, the quest for quite diesels and who's the quitest. we all win.

Ken,
I 100% agree with you on your observation with the HD diesel trucks towing campers. And I travel I10 a lot which receives a lot of travelers from other states.

Having said that, I believe Chevy's increase is good for our economy being a domestic brand and the increase I'm seeing is mostly coming from their .5 ton trucks.

Ya, but there still GM trucks! Which mean that there is still more junk on the road!

You are joking right ? I have a Chevy pushing 375,000 miles with minimal problems. Non of which happened until 175,000 miles.
