Chrysler only has 2 entries: the Dodge Ram and the Jeep Wrangler - serious trouble there. EVs like the Volt or Leaf can ever make such a Top 25 list due to their poor ROI, but the treehuggers want to make it so via subsidies and negative incentives such as gasoline taxation and CAFE regulation.
Wow, Ford's F-series stands out as the pickup truck which gained a bunch of sales. I would guess that the combination of a solid product, in-tact dealer network and the fact that some people don't want to buy from "Government Motors" all worked in Ford's favor. It is also interesting that only one minivan made the top-25 list, and it wasn't the previously always best selling Dodge Caravan. My, how the once mighty Caravan has fallen. Not very long ago, Chrysler corp got the majority of all minivan sales and everyone else fought for what was left. No mas. Noteworthy too is that the Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan are not in the hunt.
What is the "Dodge Ram"? It's just "Ram" now. Like Cher.
