    FoMoCo beat GM in May.  During the year, GM outsold FoMoCo.

    The great news is that Buick is going like gangbusters.  Cadillac is doing very well too.  But why are Chevy and GMC down though?

    I see Ford Motor beat all of GM too.

     

    Are you sure?

    Ford + Lincoln = 241,126 sold

    GM = Chevy+GMC+Buick+Cadillac = 237,364

    Yup Ford beat GM by 3,762 auto's.

    Interesting when you look at the rebates:

    FORD F150 has a $5,150 rebate and Expedition has $7,000

    http://www.realcartips.com/ford-incentives/

    GM Trucks has $3,500 on Chevy full size truck and only $500 on GMC full size truck, full size SUVs are $1,500 on both Suburban and Yukon.

    http://www.realcartips.com/gm-incentives/

    End result is that the ATP is much higher on GM than Ford auto's.

    Amazing to see that other than the Fiesta that has Zero rebate, every auto Ford has is at least $2,000 plus or bigger to move metal. GM on the other hand has many that are below $1,000, either 500 or 750. Yes they do have some in the 4K range too.

    Chevy lacks crossovers, that is problem #1 there.  They need to get a crossover between Equinox and Traverse, and maybe one between Trax and Equinox.

    GMC also has just 2 crossovers, not sure if the new Terrain is on sale yet, if it isn't that could explain the problem there.

    Cadillac got outsold by Acura, ouch.

    I feel like I am living in an alternative universe where nothing much surprises me any more.

    Brutal numbers for Jeep and Hyundai.

    • Thank you!  Yeah, as much as I love the vehicle, I REALLY tried to avoid Land Rover because...of their well-known UNreliability.  Well, we have a 100,000-mile (unlimited years) warranty, so we should at least have that peace of mind. I know they're not supposed to be the most reliable, but I don't really hear of people getting stranded. It's usually "just" lights going off saying something needs fixed. Hopefully that is just the case.  Oh, oh I know! I REALLY tried pushing ANY other brand, because reliability was our G issue.  It absolutely rides better than the G. Almost anything rides better than a vehicle with two solid axels though, hahaha. My wife loved her G though. She was so used to it that she really didn't notice how shtty it rode. Anytime we'd drive something else she'd say that she liked it but she still liked her G and that she still thought that drove just fine.. I had to tell her that she was just conditioned to like to because it really drove like @ss.  Yes, 100,000 mile warranty with unlimited years. It actually seemed like a "bargain" at $4340. That's like one repair and I'm sure it'll be used plenty, unfortunately.  As much as I tried to get her into either an Aviator or SQ7, a little thing in the back of my head said it's okay because when those broke, it would be my fault, hahaha. Now when this breaks, I'll give her the ole "I told ya so". 
    • Random thoughts: In looking at 270 to Win, nothing has changed since 4 years ago - the states are shaded the same way and the swing states are also the same - MI, WI, PA, GA, AZ, and NV.  This is and isn't about politics since I'm a huge geography and demographics buff. - - - I hate being in places that don't recycle.   - - - I was next to a late model Mazda 6 last night.  While I hate its dash and its big upright touch screen, I feel that this sedan nailed the exterior looks department at its time better than did the Camry, Altima, Accord ... and probably even the Malibu and the Fusion. - - - How do you deal with someone who texts in dribbles a good part of the day  ... on many days?  I might text someone I know once every week to 2 weeks.  And it has some critical mass to it.  Actually, if you have a lengthy phone conversation, then you don't need to communicate with a person for a long time, so it's more efficient.  Since this individual does not like the voice aspect of the phone, this is what I have to deal with.  I want to fix this, but I don't want to be rude. - - - I feel that, with each passing day and with all the villains around, I/(we) am/(are) living in a bad 007 movie.
    • Beautiful vehicles! I'm not sure that you've improved things on the reliability side, but at least the miles are a lot lower and it will ride nicer than the G? Opt for the extended warranty again.
    • Good morning ... Clearly I jest. Does this elation come from witnessing the eclipse?
    • Ah, yes..the joy of taxes...mine were more complex than usual this year w/ the sale of a house, purchase of a house, and lots of taxable RSU income.   But capital gains worked in my favor so I actually got small fed and state refunds, but owed regional tax.
