Toyota Canada Sold Only 543 Tundras In May 2012 |
FoMoCo, Chrysler Canada, and General Motors sold 81,833 new vehicles in Canada in May. Slightly more than three out of every ten of those Detroit/Torino-derived sales stemmed from the F-Series, Ram, Sierra, or Silverado. The market for those four trucks grew 27.5% compared with May 2011.
Dodge - by which we mean Ram, I guess - set a record for monthly Ram sales for the second time in three months. Ford Canada hadn't sold this many F-Series pickups in a single month since September 2010. Toyota hadn't sold this many Tacomas in a month since September 2010.
In other words, sales of the (discounted) pickup truck are very healthy in Canada. There are thousands of consumers and businesses who need a truck. And apparently there are thousands more who are willing to tolerate the $126 expense every time they do 650 kilometres of city driving in their F-150 EcoBoost.
