Amazing what the populace actually wants:
With cheaper gas, the guzzler is making a comeback
...
Full-sized pickup trucks represented 18.5 per cent of Canadian vehicle sales in March, compared with the long-time average of about 15 per cent. Sales of the F-Series pickup by Ford Motor Co. of Canada Ltd. were the highest of any month in the company's history in March. More than half the buyers of Ford vehicles in Canada last month bought an F-Series.
Sales of subcompact cars have hit the skids. They fell 16 per cent in the first two months of 2016 from year-earlier levels.
Sales of fuel-sipping hybrid vehicles have fallen by 8,000 units in the past three years, Mr. DesRosiers [DesRosiers Automotive Consultants Inc.] said, and Canadians buy about 3,000 electric vehicles a year in an overall market that hit 1.89 million vehicles last year.
The infatuation governments have for electric vehicles and hybrids is "highly misplaced," he said...
Shiny pony and Leap Manifesters noticing? Time for a serious government crackdown on the people's will? And boy that middle class sure is feeling the pain:
Canadian auto sales off to 'dream start' through March
What is to be done?
When you are a trust fund baby genetically famous, unproductive, vacuous, and the Prime Ministerial puppet of a green zealot, it's hard to relate to people who have actual job skills and choose Pick-ups as the preferred form of transportation. I suspect that the Spawn will do his Butt's-approved damnedest to change all of that.
