U.S. auto sales fell off a cliff in late March as the coronavirus crisis came to a head, with almost every brand and segment posting a decline in sales for the quarter. Job losses, financial insecurity and restrictions on retail operations all contributed to the decline.

Full-size trucks bucked the trend somewhat, dropping just 29 percent in the last week of March compared to 61 percent for the entire industry, according to J.D. Power.

General Motors even managed to post its best first quarter in the segment since 2007 and the entire Ram brand was up 3 percent on the strength of its pickups.

The Ford F-Series remained the best-selling model with 186,562 sold, but that was down from 214,611 in 2019.

(Ram)

The 143,696 Chevy Silverados sold were enough to take second place back from the Ram pickup, which held the spot last year. Combined with the GMC Sierra's 53,099 sales, GM moved 197,743 full-size trucks.
