This article was written four days ago. They noted that the Chevy Silverado and the Dodge Ram also outsold the Model Y.

Ford had some supply chain issues during the first quarter and you can't sell what you can't manufacture.

BTW, CNBC reports Ford EV sales fell YTD 2023, while F150 sales had great growth (23% I believe). EV sales constituted a whopping 2.8% of total Ford vehicle sales.

To sum it up. Ford sold more F150s than Tesla did Model Y's despite the fact that the F150s cost considerably more AND taxpayers are forced to subsidize Model Y sales.

Hmmm. Don't mean to rain on your parade, but your numbers are out of date AND you didn't cite any sources.

People by and large do not want to drive appliances.

My best guess is that C&D may be including F250, F350, F450, F550 in their numbers. My numbers come from my company’s data which is drawn from DMVs and Secretaries of State for all 50 states, all Canadian provinces, and Puerto Rico and is usually the source data for any reporting of vehicle sales and registration.
