2019 U.S Pickup Truck Sales Analysis
Report Updated: With October 2019 Data on November 1st, 2019
Top Level US Reports: By Manufacturer / By Brand / By Model / Best Sellers
The truck segment is a little tough to work out with the majority of the brands and companies reporting sales numbers quarterly. With Ford, GM, and FCA reporting quarterly, the only numbers we have are from Toyota, Nissan, and Honda.
Of the models we have sales for, the Tacoma led the way, though it was down about four percent for the month of October. The model was up over a percent YTD. It’ll be interesting to see where Ford’s F-Series, Chevrolet’s Silverado, Ram’s Pickup, and GMC’s Sierra fall in terms of sales when the numbers are released. They should be the leaders for the segment.
It’ll also be interesting to see where the various mid-size pickups land. With the Ranger and the Gladiator in the mix it’s not easy to predict how mid-size truck sales will shake out.
Data will trickle in throughout the day with the numbers being finalized by EOD. GCBC is also happy to announce that we will be adding quarterly sales reports and comparisons in addition to monthly sales comparisons beginning this quarter. We will also be adding monthly sales tables and charts to the mix as well.
Note: FCA US LLC will end its practice of reporting U.S. and Canada sales on a monthly basis following June results. FCA US and FCA Canada will report monthly sales for May and June. The first quarterly report will occur on October 1, 2019, covering the months of July, August, and September.
