fordmantpw Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Any predictions? Or is it a sore spot given the times? Discuss. They will be down from '07 (obviously), but I predict they will pick up a tiny bit of retail market share. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2005Explorer Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I predict that Ford will have the best showing of the Detroit 3, but other then that I'm just going to say they will be down a fairly large percentage from last year.

FordBuyer Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Let's see now...Ford sold about 105,000 vehicle in September, 115,000 in October. So I predict that Ford will sell about 125,000 vehicles in November. Not sure what the percentage decrease that will be, but figure it would be at least a 25% drop in sales. I'm hoping Ford sold close to 50,000 F-150's as that would be very good in this market. But I'm not seeing many 2009 F-150's on Metro Detroit streets which is not good. I have maybe seen two over last two weeks. GM sales will probably be down the worst as all this bankruptcy talk can't be good, and the fact they need the money yesterday.

rmc523 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I would think the Employee Pricing may have helped sales out some, but I too expect a double digit decline. Too bad there weren't more new F-150s available, as I think they'd be selling decently.....my local dealer has 2 or 3, all bare bones models.

papilgee4evaeva Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 I'd be highly surprised if any full-line manufacturer posted better than a double-digit loss this month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
