Truck Sales Help Ford Motor Company Outpace the Market Again
Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) said its U.S. sales increased 6.2% in October from a year ago, outpacing a 1.3% decline for the overall U.S. market, on strong sales of pickups and SUVs and some big deliveries to Ford's fleet customers.
Ford's October sales gain handily outpaced results at both of its traditional Detroit rivals. General Motors' (NYSE: GM) U.S. sales fell 2.2% last month, while Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' (NYSE: FCAU) were down 13% from a year ago.
