A romping sales total of 528,349 vehicles in 2010 - up by 27.7 per cent on a year earlier - drove the F-Series to top spot again ahead of the GM Silverado, with the Toyota Camry in third overall and first car.

The F-Series - a range that runs from the basic short-wheelbase F-150 pick to heavyweight trucks of all types - has been number one in the USA for more than 20 years, a result that even trumps the Holden Commodore's 15-year stretch as Australia's favourite car.

The Camry has also been a long-term ruler, taking the place of the Ford Taurus and holding off challenges in recent years from the Honda Accord.  Overall, General Motors was the top brand in the USA in 2010 with 224,147 sales, up by 8 per cent. Ford was second with 190,191, ahead of Toyota on 177,488 - the only drop among the majors from 2009 - and American Honda on 129,616.
