Data collected by Edmunds shows that the change toward economical transport had been gradual and consistent until March, when a spike in fuel prices drove a big shift toward more small-car purchases. Crossover SUV sales climbed to 6.3% market share, a nearly 50% rise over 2007 levels.
Crossovers are smaller siblings to SUVs. My family of four hates cars but like the EPA and comfort of one. We love trucks. Our solution? Equinox (then a Trailblazer crossed our path that was way too cheap to pass up...). The point is, there's a huge market for them, just because you don't think there is doesn't make it true.
