In September 2016, 67,809 units of F-Series pickup trucks were sold with a year-over-year (or YoY) decline of 2.6%. Despite this fall, the company posted its best YTD (year-to-date) F-Series retail sales in September. As you know, the F-150 is a full-size pickup truck. The significance of these trucks is immense for Ford, as trucks typically yield higher profitability than the Small Car segment. However, Ford is not the only player in the pickup truck segment.

They also reported that they sold fewer vehicles, as reduced discounting kept customers from showrooms. The upside is that because everybody was counting on a small recession in the auto industry, stocks remained flat. This is also good news for the customers, who can expect sweeter deals, as incentives will be needed to sh...

Here's a closer look to the US auto sales data for July. Total auto sales in the US stood at 1.51 million units, which was higher than the US vehicle sales of 1.50 million vehicle units in July 2015.
