Some are very surprising especially Jeep Down and GMC up. WOW

Really appreciate all the work that goes into reporting this by Bill and the companies. 

One interesting observation is that some companies seem to be resorting to just giving overall sales numbers, % up or down and highlighting just a few models.

This makes me wonder about the confidence in that automakers product line when they stop reporting individual numbers and generalize their overall sales.

Wish Tesla would get onboard with better sales details and certain German brands that have gone generic would pick up the ball and report everything.

WTF happened to Cadillac and especially Buick sales?  Chevy and GMC sales were the only things that allowed GM to avoid the sales slump affecting Ford and devouring FCA.  Ironically Alfa Romeo and Maserati were up by large percentages (from a low base) while Dodge and RAM were down slightly and FIAT, Jeep and especially Chrysler were pummeled.

discounts = sales

GM didn't really break out discounts till last month.  see the result.

price does matter to car buyers

And it's going to get worse. Even used car prices here are dropping.....people are just holding on to what they have because of all the crazy going on.

Whether we want to admit it or not-we are heading into another recession. Companies are going to have to keep those discounts going if they want to keep selling stuff.....

Saw one article estimate that maybe 500,000 vehicles may get totaled from Hurricane Harvey... and we don't know yet what Irma's planning. Might actually turn out to be a major uptick in sales.

A lot of those may eventually get titles washed and returned to service.  Buyer beware of anything with a history of Texas ownership I think.

And long term yes, another recession.

I'm in a construction related business and the folklore me and my comrades over the ages hear as the case is every 7 years.......no matter what it averages out to 7 year swings

 

that must be the pre determined cycle the global banking cartel has everyone on.

Sadly, I only expect about maybe 65 percent of those will get replaced....

Many cannot afford another car....

Public transit could be a great option if everyone did not live in single family houses spread out over a very alrge area.

:o You mean you want us to live like sardines in a can for the sake of public transportation?

:fryingpan:

Nope not gonna happen, I hate the cities, love the suburbs and only go into the city when I have to work.

I don't do public transit currently, but have in the past when in cities where they are viable.  I liked and used the light rail often in the Denver area.  Never used it in Phoenix, as it was impractical to use relative to where I lived and worked. 

I like my suburb here in the Cleveland area--very wooded and very quiet, great parks and a National Park 5 min away, but 15-20 min from downtown Cleveland and beaches.  I enjoy going into the city for the arts, dining, sports (going to the Browns-Steelers game on Sunday), etc.

Where I live in Columbus is very similar.

Yup :D You betcha, after all the company pays me to bus in and gives me a food stipend to supplement my lunch at the company cafe, no reason to put wear and tear on my auto, time commuting alone and money out of my pocket.

Funny thing is that at least here in Seattle, I can get from the North end into Seattle each morning and back out on an express bus in about 20-30 min. Driving myself in takes about 45 min to 1hr and then the crazy cost of parking which runs about $225 a month.

Nope, like going to the park n ride and buzzing in my friend. :D

Which is exactly the best use of public transit.  I loved it when I lived in Chicago.  Atlanta, where I also lived, has an awesome system.
