Power: Feb. Sales Off So Far

With the parsing of sales numbers now down to less than biweekly, J.D. Power and Associates' Power Information Network (PIN) has some very early February sales results. For the first 12 days of the month, the PIN says sales fell by 8 percent, not including fleet sales. Honda was the only brand to post an increase in the abbreviated period, but GM and Toyota fell by a percent and Nissan, Ford and DaimlerChrysler all were down. Honda, Power says, benefited from the positive PR spin of its various Car of the Year and Truck of the Year awards for its Civic lineup and Ridgeline truck. In terms of market share, GM and Nissan and Toyota were on the upside, while DaimlerChrysler and Ford saw their early market shares for the month fall.
