A lot of vehicles, Honda's total around a million.

100,000 more massive, thirsty, Dodge Rams sold, than Toyota Corollas. Shows how different we are here in NZ.

No, shows how "different" they are over there.
Also remember that trucks don't have to meet the emission requirements that cars do.

No SUVs in that list apart from the Honda CR-V. Bet that would have been different a few years ago,

I think we are not that far different. When our sales figures come out trucks will be the biggest sellers and remember ford don't sell the ranger in US any more as the current ranger is close to F150 size so that makes us no different

Ha just thinking we might be bigger red necks than them? Our top ten will be full of trucks and SUVs

The 2015 F-150 with its weight saving aluminium chassis, 700lbs lighter than the previous model, looks amazing. Also the fuel saving 2.7L Eco-boost turbo looks good. Wish they sold that here instead of the Ranger.

Yip 2.7 ecoboost F150 is the one I would buy if sold here

There is a lack of good petrol powered pickups in NZ and the F-series would fix this. If you don't want a dirty diesel you have to buy a Great Wall or something now, LOL.

Trucks in NZ don't outsell cars, like in the USA.

One factor is there are a lot more different models in the SUV space than there are in cars - take a look at the full list and try adding up all the SUVs

I live in Canada and the new RAM as well as the F150 do 40mpg, that is roughly 7 liters per 100km. Empty of course, but they are by no means guzzlers anymore. Extremely popular here and you get one at present from CAD$18'990.00

I would love a f150 maybe when the milk payout goes back up ha ha but I definitely don't like the ranger it looks like a cross eyed guppy driving down the road

A quick Google search shows the Ram V8 getting 14mpg city and 17mpg highway. The V6 gets 17 and 25 respectively. These half ton trucks getting 40mpg? Um, no. Not yet anyway. The F150 doesn't do much better.
Ok. I guess in cruise control on the highway in 8th gear, the eco diesel will achieve that. It doesn't get that in real world conditions though. Still impressive.
The rating (on 3 year old vehicles) had Jeep sandwiched between Hyundai and Landrover.
