Toyota Quarterly Global Sales Surpass GM

TOKYO (AP) -- For the first time ever, Toyota sold more vehicles globally in a quarter than General Motors, preliminary January-March figures show, the clearest sign yet that the Japanese company is on track to overtake its U.S. rival as the world's top automaker.

Final bragging rights as the world's top automaker -- a title GM has held for 76 years -- won't be decided until global vehicle production numbers get tallied for the full year.

Toyota makes a great product for sure. Although how they handle their recent Tundra debacle will be interesting.

They have good product but its their superior marketing strategies and high brand value that makes the difference in the US. They are notorious for their silent recall techniques but that is starting to change. They are looking to slow down on new products and bring quality back into the primary focus of the company.

the only gm i ever drove was a company car; no way would i ever choose a gm over a similarly equipped toyota. cadillac jumped the shark w/ the cimarron. but they'll still be buoyed by the rap industry.
