Jim Press
, President and CEO of Toyota in North America, has left Toyota for Chrysler today, with a position of Vice Chairman in charge of Chrysler's North American Sales, International Sales, Global Marketing and Product Strategy etc. Personally, I believe that the leave of Jim Press, the first non-Japanese man to join Toyota’s board of directors, is believed to more or less affect Toyota's operations in USA and Canada.
