Ram Sales Increasing, Silverado’s Decreasing

Ram has been pushing the notion that they are ready to be the top of the truck world. They’ve been aiming high and looking to replace Ford and Toyota as the ones with the best truck on the market. The 2014 Ram 1500 has been making a lot of waves in that sense. Recently, it was named the “Truck of Texas” and has been earning praise from critics all over. It appears all that hype is having an impact on the market as the demand for Ram is increasing while other truck makers are seeing their sales shrink.

Automotive News breaks down how Ram is doing in the overall truck market. The Silverado has been having a tough time starting out 2014 in a right way. The sale figures are down 15 percent for January and February. In comparison, Ram’s sales have increased 24 percent.

The gap between the Silverado and Ram is a sizable one, but one that is decreasing with each passing month. Ram in general has successfully been creeping up on the truck giants and their lead. According to Autodata Corp, “Ram has doubled sales and increased its share of the U.S. truck segment.” On the flip side, GM is down by 3.4 percent. GM’s belief is that the sales of the Silverado are down due to a limit on incentives.
