I guess once you buy it and have to pay for it then people start to care about fuel economy.

The only thing the dealers care about is getting the vehicle off their lot.
Part of this may be that when shopping you are looking for one basic type of car. You may compare a mid size Honda to a Mazda, to a Ford but they all pretty much get the same MPG so it isn't a factor so much in the comparison.
