General Motors is well represented in the list of contenders for the 2014 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year with nominees like the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado.
Chrysler's lone nomination is the 2014 Jeep Cherokee.
No Ford vehicles made the short list, which was released on Oct. 1. The automaker hurt themselves when Ford said that the Transit Connect/ Wagon will not go on sale in the U.S. until next year, removing it from contention.
