Why does the story lead with Ford?

Sales of the Prius, Toyota's one-time hot-selling hybrid, dropped 48.3% to 8,660 vehicles from 16,737 last year as gas prices fell hard from record highs.

Well.... WELL....

What was that about "The domestics should've been able to call the market." and "Everyone is buying a hybrid car" again?!?!

I'm sure we'll start seeing headlines chastising the domestics for spending 'much needed money' on technology that will not provide a return.

"Meanwhile, the imports have poured more money into incentives, attempting to seize the opportunity to gain market share."

Yep, kick 'em while they're down...

He added that Toyota's spending hit a new record high in November and that the company's market share might follow suit.

And where are all of the "Toyota is bribing consumers to buy it's cars." and "Toyota is giving away cars" and "Toyota is an evil baby killing corporation" articles from the media?!?!?!

*** The comments by some of the people on that page enrage me... How can people be so damn naive and stupid?

Well, well, well Toyota how does this feel? Honestly this is bad because they had the ZERO deal and with the domestic industry on the rocks they should have faired better than this... But what does this prove even the do no wrong green Toyota can't take HUGE sales hits. I am going to sleep well tonight, look at Prius, Camry and Turd sales!
