Default SUVs account for 51% of LExus sales

I'll get exact numbers for you but Lexus for the first time sold more trucks than cars due to the success of the new RX 330 and GX 470. I am not big on SUVs but I MUST give Lexus credit for seeing where the market is headed and making class-leading SUVs.

True true. I never really understood the purpose of a luxury SUV, but hey can't blame Lexus for giving the good supply to a high demand.

I don't necessarily agree with that, since the RX is a car-based crossover, not a truck

Hey 1Sicklex,
Do you know how this compares to other luxury car manufacturers?

Sales of Lexus sedans actually dropped this year because of some of their aging models, but the new RX and GX more than make up for them I think.
