But of course that means that all of us who don't want an F-150 or clone are left out in the cold. It's essentially the same thinking that lost the US auto industry 50% of the US market: because their big cars sold well, they thought they could go on making only big cars, leaving a market niche where the VW Beetle and all its followers could penetrate.
It's this kind of thinking that persuades me that the thread title is the problem: we can't change the automakers' minds because they don't HAVE minds.
