http://www.cnw.ca/fr/releases/archive/April2007/03/c2074.html


"The all-new Toyota Tundra full-size pick-up truck enjoyed its best
month ever, at 950 units - up 260% versus March 2006. With 1,429 units
sold so far this year, Tundra sales are also 97% ahead of the first
quarter in 2006."

Only about 7% of the US tundra sales, but still pretty impressive.
I guess we don't have to worry about buying american!

NOW.. this is really bad news in reality... u guys wanna know HOW? or HOW to interpret this article correctly?

ASK our GM/Ford asses on this board................... DSMNICK,Z28WILSON.......... ?? Your wise as usual opinionated interpretation?

Wow, it's up a whole 400 units for March...such a newsworthy article. I love how articles use percentages to make a tiny increase seem like something major...Mitsubishi does the same shit when they sell five more Eclipse Spyders..."sales up 80%!!!"

A brand spanking new model having rebates is a sign of slow sales.

A high demand model normally would have mark ups.

I remember when the first EVOs hit our shores, dealers were throwing mark ups at times $10,000.

GM sees softer second quarter sales; plans summer incentives
(http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070404/REUTERS/70404020/1078&refsect=)NEW YORK (Reuters) -- Troy Clarke, General Motors' head of North American operations, said today he expects second-quarter sales to be softer than initially forecast due to a weaker overall industry than GM had anticipated. Speaking on the sidelines of the New York auto show, Clarke said GM was scaling back production on some cars and mid-sized SUVs to cope with softer demand. "We thought the market would be stronger," he said. (http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070404/REUTERS/70404020/1078&refsect=)

And the Tundra rebates are only on base models. You won't find them on SR5's or Limiteds.

I'll play along. My interpretation? They sold a few hundred more units than they did in March 2006. Why that would be surprising I do not know. :)

Not in Canada....which is what this thread is about, isn't it? But yeah, I guess almost tripling our sales for the month is pretty weak.
