Re: The truck that has the record of the most sold each

They have lost their edge . I’m seeing more and more Dodge and Chevy fleet trucks replacing the Fords . My town just bought 18 dodge 3500 trucks for the highway dept . Mostly new Chevy trucks in DOT job sites . When I worked for the village of Scarsdale years ago they were buying new Fords cheaper than what they got at auction for 3 and 4 year old trucks . Ford made nothing and may have been losing money on them . Guessing the figured that the guys grieving them would buy fords for their personal vehicles . Ford is in a bad situation with trucks they invested so much and lost in EV trucks they need to turn a profit on the others . So now Chevy and Dodge fleet bids are competitive.

Re: The truck that has the record of the most sold each

.

My understanding is that Ford is #1 simply because GM splits their sales between Chevy and GMC. Combine those figures and see who really was #1.

I've always thought that was a huge part of it was Ford sells their trucks under one brand vs GM. That said Ford sells an absolute crapload of F150's and has for close to 25 years. Everywhere I look I see F150's outnumbering any other vehicle, cars SUVs included.
