I see pretty strong numbers for the smaller products in the lineup; G6, Malibu, Cobalt, Vibe and G5. And it is nice that the Tahoe and Silverado get better mpg than the Seqoia/Armada and Tundra/Titan, respectively.

What does "unadjusted" mean when they say "down 8%, 18.5% unadjusted". WTH?!!
Unadjusted is the actual comparision of number of vehicles sold - June 2007 vs June 2008

Adjusted - Adjusts the numbers for the number of "selling days" - basically Monday - Friday less holidays. Last year there were 27 selling days and this year 24. So its an 18% drop in Monthy numbers (unadjusted) but an 8% drop in the daily numbers.
