First quarter results have been reported and the winner is clear, but the truck sales race is one of the closest ever.

The Ford F-Series retained its traditional top spot despite seeing a 31% drop in sales with 140,701 of the full-size trucks delivered to customers during the first three months of 2022.

121,107.
