I see two GT's have been delivered... I can't wait to read and watch reviews on that car.

Wonder why the Explorer is declining. Seems to be a nice SUV especially in the Sport trim.

Explorer had its last full redesign in 2011?
More of a downer is the Edge which is fairly new and down > 10% YTD.

Fun Fact.

F-Series outsold, not just Silverado and Sierra, but Silverado + Sierra + Colorado + Canyon COMBINED - 4 different model lines.

F-Series sales are the best March sales in over 10 years...
