The end is nigh? Camry outsold Silverado in April, gunning for F-Series

Could the reign of Ford's F-Series atop the sales charts in the U.S. come to an end? Some believe that it could indeed happen, and it's not even another pickup truck ... it's the Toyota Camry. ...The Camry already posted better sales numbers than the Chevy Silverado, the perennial second-best seller to the F-Series, for the month of April. In fact, the Silverado suffered a sales drop of 24.7 percent to 37,231 units while the Camry grabbed 40,016 sales in the same month. Still, even after the Camry's great sales month, the Silverado holds the edge when the entire year-to-date sales numbers are compiled, and the F Series still sits atop the list for now.

The shift away from fuel heavy SUV and pickups is taking its toll on even America’s top selling Ford F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado, with dealers groups revealing the Toyota Camry – the nation’s best-selling passenger car – is poised to take the number one overall spot if the current situation continues.
For the month of April, the Camry overtook the Chevrolet Silverado to move into second place for the first time in a year and is edging closer to the Ford F-150. ...Camry has been the top selling passenger car in the U.S. for ten out of the past 11 years but until recently the gap between it and the F-150 and Silverado was so wide that no one predicted the pickups could be knocked from their perch...
