The problem is that with a sluggish economy people will keep a car as long as possible.
It does not pay to replace a vehicle just for better mileage. When the time to replace a car came we did buy the one with the best mileage FOR THE CATEGORY.

Gas would have to go to 20 dollars a gallon to make it worth while buying a prius and then I would wait for a 4WD version.
