GM sold about 25,000 Cruzes last month, vaulting the model past
perennial leaders such as the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord to become
the best-selling car in the U.S. Both Toyota and Honda had fewer
models to sell because of parts shortages caused by the March 11
earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

All auto sales were down. GM just looks better because Toyota and Honda
could not build cars.


And, of course, this is bad for America. No right-wing agenda from
you, of course.

It would certainly benefit the economy to have even more people
unemployed, according to the right-wing.


Going to be nice hearing all the fleabag whine as reality comes and
whacks you hard.

GM, which has faced only moderate disruption from the disaster compared with
its Japanese competitors - especially the industry giant Toyota.

The global sales leader reports it more lost than 542,000 units of
production during March alone at both its domestic and foreign-based
assembly plants. Toyota's U.S. "transplant" lines are currently operating at
just a third of their normal capacity due to parts shortages, and the
carmaker says its global production network might not be back up to speed
before November or December.
