The Chevy Silverado is enjoying a continued sales growth in May 2015. It was the best improved full-size pickup truck in the United States over May of last year and in Year-To-Date (YTD) numbers. The Ford F-series sales were down significantly for the month (-9.7%). There are several reports that suggest that Ford is struggling with suppliers of the F-150 frame to meet the demand. Ford is also reportedly shortening summer break to meet demand for the F-Series and over popular vehicles.

Ram continues to grows as do the rest of the players: GMC Sierra, Toyota Tundra, and the Nissan Titan.
