Toyota's May U.S. Sales Jump 14 Percent

Toyota said its U.S. vehicle sales jumped 14.1 percent in May as double-digit percentage gains in both passenger cars and light trucks helped the automaker to its best monthly sales ever, AP reports.
For the month, Toyota outsold Ford, which saw sales fall 6.9 percent as it continued to cut low-profit sales to rental companies. Nissan's sales gained 7.4 percent and DaimlerChrysler's sales rose 3.9 percent with help from a 20 percent jump in its Jeep brand.
