deals of the week

Pickup truck sales in Canada have grown by more than 9 per cent year-to-date, with unit sales of the Ford F-Series, Canada's best-selling vehicle, exceeding 15,000 units in September and setting a new monthly sales record.

As sales numbers for this segment continue to grow, so does the competition – both between existing players and new players looking to enter the segment to acquire market share. Honda, for example, reintroduced the Ridgeline as a 2017 model after a three-year hiatus in Canada, and unit sales for the Ridgeline outshined two nameplates from Nissan and one from General Motors last month.

One of the benefits of increasing competition is the opportunity for savings, so consumers shopping for a new pickup this fall should check out our favourite deals featuring big incentives this week.
