The Tribune Newspaper are reporting "Ford sales were up 43% and that Ford
out sold the number one auto manufacture GM, whose sales also were up nearly
12%." "Ford officials said "If not for the bad weather we likely would
have been up over 50%, but we are happy with what we did considering the
increase was in every one of ours lines, except for the Crown Victory which
was steady, even as we are winding down that fleet only model."

Nissan up 29%, Honda up 13%, and Chrysler up 1%. Toyotas decline was
nearly 10% even though it offering zero interest, five year loans and
discounts up to $3,000, as well as special incentives to returning Toyota
costumers.

"Sales of Toyota popular Camry, then number one selling car model in the US
that was caught up in their massive unintended acceleration recall, plunged
a stunning 20%"

If the "A" was located near the "O" on the keyboard, your subject line would
contain a valid typo error. But those letters are at opposite ends of the
keyboard. Therefore, you're already drunk at 11:02 in the morning. As usual.

A lot of negative press takes it's toll. But it's up around 3.5% so
far today.

Perhaps but they are not buying nearly as many Toyotas TODAY, according to
the latest sales figures.

I know my math skills aren't helped with age but it would seem that if
roughly half of your product line was on recall and that the corresponding
50% or so of your new car inventory was tied up until the recall is
satisfied that your sales would have to be down.

but then again I can run Turbotax and didn't learn this high math in Chicago
