Who has more trucks on the road....


Recommended Posts

Posted

Just made about a 12 hour round trip drive to visit the in laws....always felt in the past the roads were covered in gm and ford trucks. Is there a changing of the guard? I bet every 3rd truck was a newer Ram? Are they pumping the Rams out or has the pricing of the gm/ford line pushing people to a cheaper option? Just wondered if anyone else has noticed this

My uncle likes ram pickups. I think he is nuts though. I would never own a dodge product. He drives 18 wheelers for a living, and acts like 18 wheelers and 1/2 ton trucks are comparable.

Mostly Chevys/GMC (GM) and Ford. I see as many Dodge as I see Toyota Tundra's around here though, but this is the PNW so.. I guess people just like trucks here.

Where I'm at it see way more chevy/gmc. But then again maybe I just notice them more because I like them...

May have just been in a "dodge" area.....lots of hemis

 

Not sure what I think about the newer dodges. One day I like them and one day I don't....I will say they have come along way on the last few years

Numbers say F-series is the #1 seller, but that includes their super duty line. Numbers also say that GM sells more 1/2 tons. But the fun side of me remembers this commercial from the 90's:

If'n you hang in areas that are 3/4 ton+ trucks....................it'll be Dodge/Cummins and GM/Isuzu in the diesel world.

 

Ford killed themselves in the diesel world with the 6.0h no, then the 6.4ordly, and the jury is still out on the new 6.7. The 6.7 seems solid; but from my Buds, they say its a thirsty diesel.

The Rams are cheaper. My B.I.L. loves them, even thinks they are better than GM! He says to me " why hasn't GM switched to the coil spring suspension, it's superior! " I replied "they did, it was in the 1960's and if it was so good they would still be doing it, I suppose Dodge still hasn't figured that out yet!" :)

I've debated the Ram numerous times but always end up with a gmc....never a reason for steering away from the Rams other than I know gmc and what I get with them

I never cared for Dodge but I have to say they have come a long ways and look pretty nice now. Ford on the other hand gets uglier and just make me laugh when I see a Ford fan boy brainwashed into liking his gimiky " truck".

90% of all Ford trucks made since 1990 are still on the road. The other 10% made it home.

 

Serious note though in my area it's almost all Ram and F-150, followed by Chevy, Toyota Tacoma, and me and my GMC stand out nicely. Starting to see almost as many Colorado/Canyon's as Tacoma's though.

    • Because single shot injectors are ancient and multi hole injectors provide smoother running engines and sharper throttle response due to the fuel being atomized better..the best lead I have is a 24lb blue top injector almost everything matches up but the injector will put out about 26lb/hr which is just outside the gm threshold.figured id ask here to see if there was an absolute answer
    • Why is my question?   Any change in injectors requires a tune. Unless you are going back with the OEM part number or a newer part number of that same injector.   Any size difference or type difference like the EV6 style injectors all have different injector data for them. And there is no EV6 injector that matches the factory 25 lb/hr size that your truck comes with. I've been messing with these trucks and tuning them for a long time and what you trying to do doesn't exactly make sense to me.
    • My 6.6 gas lt8 had lifter noise with 28000 miles bought new 2026 and while driven to dealer it threw #1 rod bearing “HD my ass” good luck with yours i hope it don’t turn a rod bearing!
    • When a condition becomes a business model.    https://www.gm-trucks.com/gm-truck-suv-incentives-pricing-2026/   Zane posted this in "Latest Articles".    The honest bottom line   Truck buyers have spent three years assuming this is a temporary condition that will break once inventories normalize. GM just presented it to investors as a durable strategy, on a chart, as evidence of good management.   Inventory did normalize. GM is at 511,000 units and squarely inside its own 50 to 60 day target. The discounts still did not come back, because the low incentive number is the goal rather than a symptom of shortage.   Plan your purchase around that reality instead of waiting for it to change. Follow our ongoing GM News coverage for pricing and incentive changes as the next-generation trucks land.
    • Thought it was raining this morning when we woke. Nope. Dew point was over 80 F and humidity 98%. Zero visibility distance. Everything was 'sweating'. I've seen rain come out of clouds but never out of Pepper or the tree trunks.    Wicked storms just missed us sliding off to the east but by blocks. Heat index about 110 F with air temp in the 90's.    This is  our third wave this month of multiple days of this type of weather. And yet the grass is going dormant and the ground is cracking this side of the street and water up the the hood opposite. Just weird stuff going on.
