Ford sells the best selling F150, but overall, I think GM outsells them if I'm not mistaken.

Besides, GM has become a bank, so I guess they can get all the bailout money they want now.

Found it:

Ford Motor Company
Total Light Trucks 81,047

General Motors Corp.
Total Light Trucks 94,483

So GM is still the #1 truck seller, though Ford is not far behind. Those are 2008 number so far.

Total can be found here:

PS. What is interesting is actually how far off sales are this year. The numbers are way down!

PPS. I thought Toyota outsold GM the last couple years? Not so I guess!
