Wow - almost 750,000 F150s. At an average of $20K (low average IMO) that is almost 15 billion dollars.
Maybe they should just stop making cars and stick to full size trucks.

750,000 X 20,000 = 15,000,000,000 - Yep - that's Billion. :lol: Oh well, I AM a gov't accountant you know :blink:
Did you know that in English, and most countries, a Billion is 12 zeros and a Trillion is 18? I would so much rather be an English Billionnaire. (This is another of those things that confused me when I came to this country)

Yeah, Grump, I saw that tidbit on the Wikepedia link for Trillion (that Trillion is 18 zeros for some countries).
Whenever someone says TRILLION in terms of corporate monies it raises my eyebrow. That's simply not a number that gets associated with corps that much....countries, yes, corps, not so much.

Grump-
That's 734,513 F-<b>SERIES</b>, not F-150. The F-Series includes the F-150, 250, 350, 450, 550, 650, and 750. That's 7 models all rolled into one big number.
GM does the same thing for the Silverado/Sierra numbers as well.
It's no wonder Toyota is last, as it only has one full-size truck to report sales for, not 7.

Tiger,
Can you prove they are including the 550 and above in those numbers? I would be willing to bet the F-series numbers are F-150, F-250, F-350, and possibly the F-450.
I know Toyota adds Hino sales to inflate their numbers, while Ford does not use the medium duty line in their numbers. Anything over 450 is a medium duty truck.

Ford doesn't exactly make that easy...as in their monthly/quarterly sales report report truck sales as following:
Ranger
F-Series
Low-Cab Forward
Heavy Trucks
I would assume Heavy Trucks are the big, OTR type trucks.

Ford does not make tractors (Semi trucks) anymore. I think they sold the line off to Sterling almost 10 years ago.
