June was also a noteworthy month for the General’s commercial fleet business, which saw its eighth consecutive monthly increase and its best June since 2007.

“It’s clear that our commercial and small business customers are expecting a strong second half of the year and they are building their fleets to meet demand,” McNeil added.
