Lost in the controversy of whether Chevy passed Ford in total sales for the 1st time in about 15yrs was that Toyota became the best selling automobile nameplate in America (cars only not trucks, only Toyota alone not counting Lexus or Scion). This has not happened since the late 1800's that an American nameplate has not been the best selling car in America! Although everyone has seen it coming it is truly a sad thing to see as an American. What would Henry Ford, William Durant or Walter P Chrysler have said? Ford and GM should be more concern about how pathetic Toyota continues to make them look than which one sold more cars and trucks. Soon Toyota will have that tit…
