It’s no secret that Americans love their trucks, and the bond seems to have only grown with time. After an inevitable slowdown in 2020, the American Pickup Truck market came back stronger than ever in 2021. Once again, sales records cement the fact that Pickup Trucks are here to stay on American roads. The year saw the release of many new and revamped models, each carrying its own value proposition for buyers. In this article, we look at five of the best selling trucks in the US in 2021, which you can also find in our online auctions featuring salvage pickup trucks for sale. Take a look.
