In most highly competitive industries when there is a loser, there are usually winners. Toyota has an extremely broad product line that includes luxury vehicles, SUVs, pick-ups, sedans, coupes and hybrids. So the competition for its customers will come from companies which sell a similarly broad spectrum of cars.
Credit Card Companies Are Doing Something Nuts
