Well... domestics are known for their trucks, and enormous cars... so this isn't too surprising. But the stats on the f150 arent surprising either. Go Ford is right!

Don't get me wrong, i'd love to see Domestics owning the market, but it just wouldn't offer any competition... yet.

Early 90's van? Those POS'es had what I refer to as the "Mitsu-sh**su" V6 that ate it's oil rings at around the 100K mark leading to the trail of blue smoke deal <_<

well I think the caravan only made best selling because they are so easily replaceable with another one, without looking to different.

Anyone else see the huge irony in this? Not only was F-Series the number one selling vehicle in these provinces, it was the number one selling vehicle (car OR truck) in all of Canada - outselling even the Civic.

The irony is of course that Ford decided it no longer needed to actually build them here.
F series pickup being the best seller here in New Brunswick is dead on, they are everywhere. I thought it might even be the ranger. The best selling area for the ranger in canada is actually here in the maritimes :D
