Toyota was off the top 5 list for the first half of 2011, Toyota returns to take the number three spot, knocking BMW out of the group. Right in front of Toyota are Ford and Honda, in the same places as first half 2011. Rounding out the top 5 ranking are Volkswagen in the #4 spot and Chevrolet, which had the #3 spot last year.
