8. Avalon: Never really sold at very high volumes, but Toyota doesn't expect it to.
7. Dakota: Irrelevant, dead.
6. Tahoe: Apparently the rank of "Best-selling SUV in America" means nothing.
5. Liberty: Might have a point there.
4. Silverado: 2nd best selling vehicle in America. GM sells more Silverados every month than Toyota sells Camrys. What this author is smoking, I do not know.
3. Mustang: Again, not supposed to sell at high volumes, although sales have indeed been dampened by Camaro.
2. Taurus: Of course it doesn't sell as well as it used to, it has a much higher ATP and for good reason.
1. 300: Can't argue there, although it still ranks 7th on the list of best selling full size cars in America.

I was also surprised to see the Silverado on there. I mean seriously... but I suppose they were technically just talking about the HD version... but that could be based upon the fact that businesses are not buying them because there is less business than normal due to a recession. the HD version isn't really for your average joe truck lover.
But most of the list is due to stale designs... I can think of quite a few other stale designs that aren't selling well....
