Toyota may have stayed in the black to keep pace with Honda had it not taken a bath with Tundra sales, which dropped off 38%. They built an incredible pickup and launched it at a time when truck sales were declining, looking back it was a poor move timing wise, but no one could have predicted this downward economy to happen so quickly.

As a result Toyota has been forced to shut down the truck plant in San Antonio in order to have it refit to continue making cars, who knows Prius?
