How funny!! I thought America was waking up to "smaller" sized engines and cars. Arnold is getting rid of his Hummers, everyone drives Prius's, California is sueing 'the big six' car manufacturers. Even big trucks sales are slowing down and cars sales are picking up!
I do hope America can adopt the perception of owning smaller cars. I know there is a stigma for NOT owning a V8 or V6. Come to Europe. You get respect for owning a 1.8l 4 cylinder engine, and even more if it's a diesel!!
