The August 2017 sales number for the United States are in. The Toyota Tacoma is still chugging along in the lead. Toyota’s midsize truck had another great sales month in August. The Chevy Colorado is also doing well with a 11.0% improvement over last year. The same cannot be said for the Nissan Frontier, GMC Canyon, and the Honda Ridgeline. These trucks saw a double-digit decline in sales for the month.
