Yeah, that technicality has always perturbed me too--just slightly. I'm an equal fan of both, for their own merits, but Ford saying they have the best selling, regardless of the fact that it's against 1 of a pair of models. Then again, GM wants each to be seen separately--Chevy and GMC--even if they are the "same", so maybe it's a valid point. It's a weird one, at least as far as the numbers go.
