November Pickup Sales

Best-Selling Pickup Trucks: November 2016

Quote :

With total automotive sales down for the last three straight months, the industry is poised for a small turnaround, thanks in large part to the long Thanksgiving weekend and a wide selection of Black Friday specials. In fact, some industry experts are predicting this could be the biggest November sales month in 15 years, with a huge chunk of that gain centered in the full-size and mid-size pickup trucks segments.

Most of the big pickup sales winners for November were the usual suspects. The mid-size segment gained more ground with the Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon and Toyota Tacoma making big jumps over November 2015. And the Honda Ridgeline outsold the Canyon in November. But the biggest winner in monthly and year-to-date sales so far was the Nissan Titan, which now has a full pipeline of full-size trucks (both the half-ton and the XD) heading to dealerships. The other big full-size pickup sales news is Ford experiencing a more than 10 percent gain over November 2015 sales — that's big improvement over October's small monthly gain.

Expect the race for year-end supremacy to get more aggressive in the full-size pickup segment, as low fuel prices, a relatively steady economy and one final incentive push during the December holidays continue to lure customers to dealer lots. By year's end, it's possible the industry will set an all-time record of more than 17.4 million units sold, with an approximate 60/40 split between trucks — pickups, vans, crossovers and SUVs — and passenger cars. We'll know more by Jan. 4, when December 2016 sales will be reported.

WOW, everyone had positive movement compared to last year. The F150's should start really moving if they got the 10 speed transmission issue corrected like they feel they did.

Ram is at the capacity limits of their truck plants.
Should be interesting when they get the Detroit plant switched over to truck production.

GM needs to build MORE 25/3500 HD trucks.
Too many dealers have little to no inventory of these trucks.
