The
truth about cars has US car sales for the last month broken down by brand;
175,129 Ford
167,023 Chevrolet
136,485 Toyota
105,407 Honda
75,673 Nissan
61,172 Dodge
49,045 Hyundai
31,431 Kia
29,960 GMC
23,667 Suburu
23,543 Volkswagon
22,948 Jeep
22,605 Mazda
22,216 Lexus
20,699 Chrysler
19,876 Mercedes
17,859 BMW
12,582 Buick
12,328 Cadillac
11,766 Acura
9,205 Audi
9,128 Mercury
8,091 Infiniti
7,755 Lincoln
4,737 Mitsubishi
4,659 Volvo
4,233 Mini
4,112 Scion
2,700 Land Rover
1,903 Suzuki
1,873 Porsche
174 Saab
Ford and Chevrolet are way ahead of everyone else, only Toyota comes close. Ford is probably in the best position as they have been dumping brands while everyone else is picking them up. Scion which is part of Toyota for instance doesn't sell much. It is still a perplexing decision as to why GM kept GMC, Buick and maybe even Cadillac around.

Most Popular Hikes in Arizona
Arizona is an outdoor state and has lots of hiking in the city and around the state. Phoenix is unusual for most cities in having several large mountains in the center of the city with great hiking. Anyone who comes to Phoenix has to do the
Echo Canyon trail on Camelback and the
Summit Hike on Squaw Peak or Piesta Peak. The views of the city, suburbs and surrounding mountains are wonderful from Camelback and Piesta Peak.
For more experienced hikers there is the McDowell Mountains in North Scottsdale that has several difficult and strenuous hikes in
Tom's Thumb and
Bell Pass. Alternatively, you can hike the highest mountain in Arizona. At 12,600 feet
Humphrey's Peak is a long and difficult hike.
Alternate Australian Constitutions
Between 2004 and 2009 this site,
southsearepublic.org, was a constitutional blog based on scoop which focused on Australian and global constitutional issues.
One of the strongest aspects of it was the development of constitutions by those involved in the blog. These constitutions are the outcome:
The constitutions were built using principles from Montesquieu's separation of powers, the enlightnment's universal political rights and the ancient Athenian technology of sortition and choice by lot.

Who Is Cam Riley
I am an Australian living in the United States as a permanent resident.
I am a software developer by trade and mostly work in Java and jump between middleware and front end.
I originally worked in the New York area of the United States in telecommunications before moving to Washington DC and
working in a mix of telecommunications, energy and ITS. I started my own software company before heading out to
Arizona and working with Shutterfly. Since then I have joined a startup in the Phoenix area and am thoroughly enjoying myself.
I do a lot of photography which I post on this website, but also on flickr. I have a photo-journalistic website which lists
the modernist and contemporary restaurants in phoenix. I have a site on the
Australian Flying Corps [AFC] which has been around since the 1990s and which I unfortunately
lost the .org URL to during a life event; however, it is under the
www.australianflyingcorps.com URL now.
The AFC website has gone through several iterations since the 90s and the two most recent are
Australian Flying Corps Archives(2004-2002) and
Australian Flying Corps Archives(2002-1999) which are good places to start.
