Ford Motor Company joined Chrysler in reporting excellent us sales for the month of May, as the blue oval brand saw sales of its cars and light trucks up 14% compared to the same month a year ago.
“Our fuel-efficient Fusion and Escape have set monthly sales records for four straight months,” said Ken Czubay, Ford vice president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service. “F-Series sales – fueled by construction growth and pent-up demand – reached their highest level in more than six years.”
The Fusion sedan recorded its best-ever May sales of almost 30,000 units, as demand was up 10 percent over May 2012. The Escape compact SUV also posted its best-ever sales month since being introduced 13 years ago – a 26 percent increase with 29,123.
Of course, good Ford sales announcements never come without the help of the truck segment. The F-Series had its strongest May sales result since 2005. F-Series’ 71,604 sales in May represented a 31 percent increase versus last year and its 22nd straight monthly sales increase.
Put simply, Ford sold more trucks than it did its two best-selling car models combined. Stick that in your exhaust pipe and smoke it 2014 Silverado!
