American Drivers Can’t Complain About Gas Prices by jim on November 02, 2006
Gasoline prices get a much needed respite and guess what happens?
GM sells twice to three times as many Chevy Tahoes (17mpg), Suburbans (17mpg), and Cadillac Escalades (15mpg).
Ford Expedition (16mpg) and Lincoln Navigator (15mpg) sales increased 40% in October.
Chrysler sales of Jeeps (Wrangler, 18mpg) spiked 29%.
Sales of Chevy Aveos (30mpg) and Cobalts (28mpg) fell 31% and 43% respectively.
Toyota sold 8.6% fewer Priuses (sp?) (55mpg).
So, the next time Americans complain about gas prices, I’m going to complain about American stupidity.
