I dont they they will stay #1 even with the employee discounts. I hope Ford doesnt have a big market in Malaysia (i think thats where it was?) because i just heard their gas and diesle prices whent up 40% and 60%!!!

With the way gas prices have shot up in the US in the past few months I dont think people will be going back to big SUV's & trucks for a while, especially if production stops on most of them.

Employee pricing will probably keep it #1 for the year but Ford really has its work cut out for them if they wanna retain that title.

If gas prices stabilize or start to go down, buyers may migrate away from things like the Prius & back to the Fseries. Remember last year or so? Gas started going up & people were paying more for used Priuses than new … then gas stopped going up & suddenly Toyota had to start offering incentives.

It's funny how the market works.
