By far the biggest surprise on this list is the fact that the Chevy Tahoe is down 19.1% from last year’s July sales. We always expect the Chevy Tahoe to do well, and it still has the number one spot. However, this looks slightly concerning given how large the drop is. We have reached out to Chevrolet for comments but have not heard back yet.

A couple of other surprises are in this list. One of the big ones being that the GMC Yukon has taken the number two spot from the Ford Expedition. This will likely be encouraging for GM despite the drop in Tahoe sales.

The Toyota Sequoia has also risen a spot, putting the Lincoln Navigator in last place.

The Armada is still performing fairly well compared to last year. It’s excellent value will likely help sales continue to rise.

Ford will be disappointed that both of their SUVs dropped a position on the list. However, sales aren’t too much worse than they were last year.
