Probably see the Ram go even higher with addition of the 3.0L diesel.

That's a huge leap for the Nissan Frontier.

It's a big leap percentage wise but not in numbers, from about 3000 trucks to 5000.
The Rams went from 23,000 to 29,000.

The Ridgeline doesn't have low range so that means it isn't enough 4 x 4 for me. And I don't even know anyone who drives a Nissan Titan. It's got a nice interior but I haven't heard much about reliabilty or durability - for some reason very few sales.

It is still amazing how well the F150 still sells. It has been a huge hit for nearly 20 years!

A lot of that due to fleet sales.

Don't know if the switch to an all aluminum body for 2015 will have effect on future sales. Will be interesting to see. Ford also dropped the 6.2L V8 from the lineup. The 3.5L V6 Ecoboost is now the flagship engine and a new 2.7L V6 Ecoboost for the midrange. The 5.0L V8 is still available for people that gotta have a V8.

Ram #2 in HD sales

Not that numbers mean much, but interesting that Ram outsold Chevy in the 3/4 tons last year, outsold Chevy and GMC combined in the 1 tons (by nearly double).
