It seems like after all these years or car sales growth, tough days are coming for automakers. The previous success starts working against them, it means car costumers have bought so many new cars in the last years that they have a very low interest in them right now.

The fallout has already begun, with Ford Motor Co. shaving $300 million from its financial-services arm’s profit f...
Apple is facing a lawsuit in California for declining to deploy technology that could prevent iPhone users from texting while driving.

Even so, we have all the signs for the industry to get well in 2017, and show positive sales and new records. Last year, green car sales fell about 11 percent from the previous year, to about 446,000 units. We say "about" because Tesla Motors continues to be cagey when it comes to breaking out how many of its electric vehicles were purchased in the US, while South Korea's Hyundai and its sister company Kia are among those who won't break out hybrid sales at all. 2...
The F-series, best known for the popular F-150, has been America’s best-selling truck for the 40 consecutive years since its launch. Ford says it’s sold more than 26 million since the model line came out in 1977. The F-series has also been the best-selling vehicle of any kind in America for 35 years, the company said. Ford has sold 818,580 of the trucks in the years since it launched the F-series. It started with the F-100 as a base truck back in 1977, and replaced it with the F-150 in 1984.
