Small Cars Make a Comback

Acording to the New York Times, US car buyers are finally turning away from SUV's and buying small cars again. SUV sales are down 25 percent. It is bad news for Detroit, which has made the big (and unsafe) trucks a staple of US roads for the last 10 years. Except for the little Ford Focus, Americans have been looking overseas to Japan and Europe for more reasonable transportation. The Yaris made by Toyota has seen sales increased by 46% and Ford's Focus up 32%.
