Goodcarbadcar.com. Just released truck numbers for June . Chevy alone is catching up to ford while Chevy and GMC together outsold ford by huge margin while selling more trucks than ford year to date.

I had a 2006 Dodge 2500 CTD and recently bought a 2015 Ram 3500 CTD. I saw this graphic while researching which really surprised me how well Ram was doing in the HD category.



A buddy got a 2015 Chevy 3500 which is also a nice truck. We were both amazed how similar both trucks were and how advanced they compared to our previous 10+ old trucks. It's fun getting into pissing matches about sales numbers, 0-60, quarter mile up a hill while pulling a house, etc. In reality all of the big three diesels will pull our campers all day on the interstate in OD and get to the campground in the same time.

Ford is having trouble getting frames for their trucks and this is impacting their sales. I'm a GM owner-but that's a MAJOR REASON for Ford's lower sales.

Remember that Ford had a long shut down of F-150 production while they were retooling for the 2015 F-150. I am seeing a lot of the new F-150 trucks around here now so I would bet that Ford will be #1 again very soon. I think their sales will increase even more when the new Super Duty is released.

..Just the opposite of goducks10....owned Chevy Trucks from 1975 until 2010, then went with Ram....If I ever went with another brand, I'd go back to Chevy...I love the Ram's and I really liked my Chevy's, (last 4 were D/A's).

Never been a Chevy truck fan. Always bought Fords till I got my 12 Ram 2500. But these new GM twins are really nice looking IMO. Told my wife if we were to get another truck right now it would be a GM.

Yep, it was just over a year ago and everybody was bashing the GM twins. They were plain, no great styling change, no turbo, no new diesel, no new transmissions, no new useless gizmo, etc.

GM had missed the mark. Ford was selling F-150s like crazy.

Well, the times have changed, and almost looks reversed.

So the reported deliveries is a good sign for GM. So I expect the usual others (besides dodge guy who drives a Ford) to add their useless comments.

I think the great news is that Colorado deliveries were up 12,759% and Canyon deliveries were up 84,300%!

chevy + GMC numbers have been greater than Fords for many years. Not by much, but greater than ford

Ford only has one brand of trucks, while GM has Chevy and GMC so it's true that ford is the highest selling brand, but for years GM has outsold Ford in total trucks, they just haven't done the advertizing.

personally, i don't really care who sells the most, as long as I can get the truck I like. Glad we have 3 strong mfg of 3/4 and 1 ton trucks. All are darn good trucks.
