Toyota's first month with the lowered tax break has shown up in lower sales - 4,136 fewer hybrids sold in October than in September.

Also, the lower gas prices hurt sales too I'm sure.
I don't look at it as the sales of hybrids dropped in October. I'm thinking that September's hybrid sales for Toyota was artificially high due to the reduction in credit that was imminent.
