What? How can that be? It isn’t magic?
“The US produced over seven million vehicles in 2010 (hard to believe, I know), which means $14 billion slapped on the top..”
You should really add the cost to the units sold, not units built, in the US. Our market is typically 12-14M units annually, however I think last year dipped to 10M or 11M units....
“Car prices go up and up, regardless of mpg regs”
If it isn’t CAFE, then it is safety, or materials, etc. You’d be shocked at the cost of government in every vehicle on the market.
