Ford has topped the best selling truck list for 28 years in a row.&#160; That is an amazing accomplishment.&#160; Another interesting factoid is that the Big-Three all have light-duty pickup trucks as their top-sellers.&#160; Let?s face it, Americans love their trucks.&#160; When they buy trucks, it is from the Big-Three because that is what they make the best.&#160; Honda was the winner for having the most vehicles in the list.&#160; It will be interesting to see the list for 2010.&#160; Will Ford ramp up a notch with the release of the new Taurus?&#160; Will GM make a showing in the list with a car?&#160; Will Chrysler even be on the list?&#160; As long as Dodge keeps making trucks, I think so.&#160; Fiat might pull it off with a rebadged model?maybe.&#160; I am surprised that Volkswagen didn?t make a showing in this list.&#160; A final observation from this list is that most all of the vehicles in this list are manufactured in the US.&#160; That should make us all feel a little better about the job situation.&#160; Let us all hope this trend continues for many years in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Lloyd?signing out<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is an interesting list from BankRate.com.&#160;
