I will never buy another UAW assembled vehicle.

They can have the government steal my money for them, but I will not voluntarily give them a dime.

Seems like a fairly insignificant drop overall. With lower gas prices, people may be holding on to their older cars longer than they normally might.

If they would bring back a good line of compact personal pick ups, sales would gain some strength.

< shrug > My vehicles are both more than 10 years old, and both in good operating condition.

I can't think of a good reason to replace them.

Do sales include leases?

Just saw on the news that Ford F-150 p/u trucks are having brake failure. My husband had a 2013 that had brake failure while the engine roared. Back then they were blaming it on the floor mats. Not true with his.

When the brakes failed the 3rd time we called a wrecker and got rid of it. The dealership said they failed to find anything wrong and put it on the lot for sale. He replaced it with a Cheve.

A few months later, on the news there was a story about a young kid who ran a Ford p/u the same color into someone’s house. We wondered if it was his same truck.

People tend to buy cars when they áre confident that they will be employed and able to pay all their bills. That does not describe the current economy.

Auto sales aren’t truly healthy to begin with, due to increased levels of subprime lending.
