US Car Fleet Shrinks
January 23, 2010
“America’s century-old love affair with the automobile may be coming to an end. The U.S. fleet has apparently peaked and started to decline. In 2009, the 14 million cars scrapped exceeded the 10 million new cars sold, shrinking the U.S. fleet by 4 million, or nearly 2 percent in one year. While this is widely associated with the recession, it is in fact caused by several converging forces.” – Lester Brown, President of Earth Policy Institute

Are the car dealers on South Carson aware of this? The ones building new multi million dollar facilities?
