I am fairly sure Ford is outselling Chevy by some small percentage in SD level trucks.
More F250s are sold than F350s. More are Black in color in the south, White is popular in the southwest. Navy is popular in the NE and midwest, Silver goes everywhere. Brown is out. Automatics, I believe, are now outselling standards everywhere.
Fleets buy regular cabs so their numbers are high, Super cabs next, then crews.
You can get more info from the automakers. Automotive News is the trade mag you could look in at the library.They may have info in this area.
If anyone on FTE is currently affliated with the manufacturer they may have access to more detailed info.
Cheers,
Bob

I don't know about nationwide trends. In the mountains of North Carolina the most popular are the crew cab short bed 4x4s with diesel. My dealer said he can't keep them on the lot. No one buys regular cabs anymore for private use. He said extended cabs are in a close second. The long bed single wheel trucks aren't selling very well either. Most people who are buying the long beds are looking for duallys. Around here you would just about have to special order a 2 wheel drive. No dealer will stock them here.
