    Lightbulb FORD number one selling truck.

    Bragging rights for XXX years.
    Always wondered if GM actually sold more trucks if you add GMC and Chevy trucks together?

    I think if you count gmc / Chevy together they usually are number 1 by a pretty good margin.

    if you don't think Chevy also plays a huge part in fleet programs you are sadly mistaken...

    Most of us will never know who sells the most new autos. A few of us will never care either way! It just isn't very important to most people and certainly doesn't help me decide what to buy.

    Monthly auto sales to customers, retail and fleet, are released monthly by most of the major manufacturers. The numbers can be interesting to follow as sometimes you will see something odd like a single car of a model that was discontinued two years earlier being sold as new. It’s like they found parked at a dealership in the weeds or something.

    Total Chevy plus GMC truck sales in 2022 were a bit more than 100,000 more than F-series sales.

    Was a Ford guy until the last truck spent more time in the air than on the road. Been GMC since '16.

    No love for RAM? I've had one for six years with no problems other than replacing pads, rotors, and tires at 58,000 kms.

    I gave it a 2" lift and Kumho AT51 35"s since this pic.
