As a group of slots, the top twenty YTD are down slightly less ( - 33.5 % ) than the industry total of ( - 35.1 % ) for YTD so the non- top twenty are definitely down more as a group.

Over all : Brutal.

[doh]

Former 10th, 13th and 19th place feel off the board.

WOW! Go Ford! The only domestic automaker with two entries in the top ten slots #1 and #9 for a total of four in the entire list . . .

I remember when almost half of the top ten were Ford: F-150, Taurus, Explorer, Tempo and Escort. Those were the days . . .

Toyota Corolla / Matrix

They forgot to add the Vibe.

What happened to the post above mine saying GM was th eonly one that had 5 on the list?

[Rick_VT]

How is it the Camry had 239,000 sales and was 3rd but the Chev Silverado had 231,000 sales and was 2nd?? Am i reading this wrong somehow?

[dindak]

Would be nice to see Malibu move higher up the charts.

[chevydlrmn]

Congrats to Ford Fusion! #9 and the lowest drop on the list. I know Malibu was in tis place a year ago and praised them for the accomplishment. The same respect goes to Ford. I got chills typing that. Uuugh weird, but deserved.

Those are from the second column, the 2008 numbers... the 2009 numbers are Camry: 150,242 and Silverado: 149,949 and are in the first column.

Toyota Corolla / Matrix -37.5%
Honda Civic -42.2%
Ford Focus -43.8%
Chevrolet Cobalt -54.8%

And I said last year when the price of gas drops -- as I said it would -- folks would just flock back to trucks. And they did. I have a whole rant about that, but I'm tired of typing it in. I await the inevitable climb in gas prices to result in more bellyaching by next summer.

hmm,.....some fleet sales I presume?

[CamaroCrazy]

So....about that Cruze.

Do you think it can't get here soon enough?

If the post and article about the future Oshawa products is correct, how is the Impala going to survive another 3-4 years without a redesign? They should just kill the thing and let the Malibu soak up the sales. Or how about the new LaCrosse? Throw it a bone.
