Truck sales
GM posted their decrease on truck sales. It is probably hard to judge, wonder how the 6.4 is doing on its own. See a lot more on the road lately.
DETROIT (Reuters) - General Motors Corp (GM.N) on Monday posted an adjusted 16 percent drop in light vehicle sales for February and said it would cut second-quarter production by 5 percent from year earlier levels. <NOSCRIPT>

The No. 1 U.S. automaker said it sold 268,737 cars and light trucks in February, compared with 308,411 a year earlier. Before adjusting for the number of selling days, that represented a 13 percent decline.
GM's truck sales dropped by nearly 23 percent when adjusted for an additional sales day in February compared with a year earlier.

"...Ford reduced plans for North American second-quarter production by 10 percent to 730,000 and also said it will go to one shift from two at assembly plants in Chicago and in Louisville, Kentucky, later this year..." from http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?p...VcI&refer=home
Seems like now would be the time to keep the 0% promo running, but nope what do they do to encourage more sales, raise APR.
