Americans have already registered more than 700,000 pickup trucks in 2014, and there are two-thirds of the year yet to be, well, lived. That’s ahead of last year’s four-month pace by nearly 26,000 units, a feat that’s been accomplished in large part thanks to the growth achieved by Ram’s pickup lineup. Ram sales are up 24,577 units so far this year, having risen 17% during the month of April.
But after a second-place finish in March 2014, Ram ceded the path to runner-up status to the typical second-place finisher, Chevrolet’s Silverado. April sales of the Silverado rose 8.5%, slightly better growth than what Ford achieved with the F-Series. That said, F-Series volume improved by 4357 units, better than the Chevy’s 3360-unit improvement. GM’s twins owned 31.2% of the truck market, up from 30.5% a year ago.
In the full-size sector proper, however, where sales grew 11.7%, from 153,356 to 171,235, GM’s share was level at 35%. Ram’s share jumped from 20.5% to 21.4% while Ford claimed 37% of full-size buyers in this transition yeaer, down from 38.5% in April 2013.
