Auto manufacturers in US are increasingly working hard to get their vehicles more fuel efficient and closing truck / minivan plants (like GM and Chrysler announced few weeks ago)
i have been reading solutions proposed to the industry on WSJ , Business week etc: all mainly focusing on fuel efficiency for current class of vehicles. Here is a FREE tip for the auto industry: "wagons". People still have too much stuff and still need a vehicle to transport all the shopping that's being done.. if they cant ride their SUV's and cars can't fit stuff, the only fuel efficient answer (at least in the short term, now-5 years) is increase production of wagons. what would be a big hit: Prius Wagon! 45 mpg + lots of storage.
Another proof that i am right is: A look at inventory at Carmax shows, SUV's are not selling, but there is very limited supply of hybrids AND wagons.
