Last year's truck sales . GM is doing something right!

On another note, Ford and GM have flip flopped over the last 10 years with who sold more trucks . Sierra and silverado combicombined. Then when the Colorado and canyon became all new , the combined sales of all GM trucks have topped Ford the last 4 years

I think if GM was so horrible, and so many are still holding on to the bailout issue of 10 years ago, then what explains that they are the number one auto manufacturer every year in the U.S.A ?? A whole lot of idiots I guess??

I'm sure there are many who could care less about those numbers, but there are also many who don't realize GM trucks as a whole out sell Ford. All three trucks are great in their own ways, but the numbers do show GM is making what people want.

Do they outsell Ford as a whole? Just seen some stats in another thread and elsewhere showing Ford outsold Chevy/GMC combined by quite a large margin in the full size market at least based on 2018. As a longtime GM owner my next truck most likely will not be a GM but a tossup between Ford and Ram.

BTW I know some of you don't care :B

I have never understood why so many folks care about what out sells the rest. I just buy what I like. Couldn't care less about what other folks buy.
Unless you own stock in the companys why would you care?

I don't believe you can comment on GM's recent history on truck volume since anytime a new truck is released the production volume starts off typically slow and the production usually starts off with high end high profit margin trucks. Having said this I sure see a lot the new GMC trucks and less Chevy trucks.

It wasn't long ago when ram released there new 1500 trucks and it was several months after these trucks were on dealer lots that I seen the first one on the road. Also I recall during this time ram sales numbers dropped.

I'm greatful all three are in competition with each other to push development to the next level.

Could you imagine what we would be driving if there was no competition?

Because, everything in life is a horse race.

You must be a Ford fan. ;)

Am I correct ?
