I wouldn't expect that it would anywhere really... unless the location is demographically "average". Every city and town is biased in some way.

The Fusion is on a roll! Hopefully it can overtake the Camry once Flat Rock production begins. Explorer sales have been very impressive too. It looks like it's once again the go to choice for larger families.

the redesigned models have very high increases from prior year, as you would expect.

Prior year's redesigned models have lower volume from last year.

Expect to see an increase in Toyota Rav4 because a new redesign just came out.

Looks like Ford is the big winner for the quarter. Camry and Altima sales down while competing Ford products are all up. The Corolla is up versus the Focus though. Overall, it looks like GM just about broke even with volume. With the exception of the trucks, this is pretty much the low profit cars that builds dealers volume. There's a lot of other models out there that are money makers that won't make this list. You don't see Lexus, Caddy, Acura, etc on these lists.

I think this might kinda show that Americans might not have learned their lesson yet and still insist on buying large trucks over more fuel efficient cars. Come another serious fuel price hike, I suspect once more one will be able to get a used full size truck for dirt-cheap.

Same here. I see just as many Sonatas as I do Camrys in my area lately (current bodystyles), but it may have something to do with Hyundai having a plant here in Alabama.

I haven't seen many '13 Fusions on the road yet.
