Probably counting commercial vehicles, why wouldn't they?
Because a much higher percentage of GM's vehicles are commercial, so it's not fair to compare with Toyota.

Toyota comes THIS close to GM's numbers with mostly CONSUMER vehicles, not nearly as many commerical vehicles, and with only THREE brands (Toyota, Lexus, Scion). That's pretty fuckin impressive IMO.
