Sales for December 2008 were especially weak for GM, Chrysler, Ford, Toyota and Honda. No word from Nissan.

Contributing to the December decline was a weak economy and news dominated by two of the big three automakers telling Congress they were on the verge of bankruptcy unless they received a government bailout loans.

GM and Chrysler will receive those loans which many hope will help boost consumer confidence.
