The larger and more expensive the vehicle, the higher the profit.

As soon as they figure out how to charge more for smaller (Cadillac is on the way), there will be a change.

They brought back the mid-sized trucks the Chevy Canyon, and the Ford Ranger is next, but they are much larger than their predecessors.

I do suspect the larger girth of the buyers is at least partly to blame.

Subaru should bring back the Brat.
