Hmmm....Toyota did 6.7 million worldwide, GM did 9.1. But one is trending upwards, the other is struggling to stay even.

The worst salesmen I have found have been at Toyota dealers. I guess they figure their vehicles are pre-sold by Consumer Reports. The salesmen at the first 3 dealers I contacted tried to tell me Toyota no longer made a standard cab Tundra. The 4th dealership had 4 but the arrogant salesman was a jerk that didn't want to negotiate and didn't know the product. He didn't believe me when I told him I was going straight out and buying a Ford (he found out when he called me the next afternoon to negotiate).
