This trend will end as soon as gas prices goes up again. Back when prices were in the $3 to $4 range people were trading in their trucks and SUVs. Price of gas dropped and sales of trucks and SUVs went back up again.

So Cal is already in the 3-4 buck range. Cheaper unleaded I’m finding n my home area is 3:19 a gallon unleaded 3:45 diesel. In LA Santa Monica area 3:75 unleaded 3:95 Diesel
People are still buying V8 trucks and SUVs.
In our part of the country, I go to any parking lot and see that 3/4ths to sometimes all vehicles are 4 door Pickups, SUVs, and Crossovers. All 4 wheel drive or AWD. Sedans have been dying here for years. That is a fact, when you get away from the coasts and out into the real America.
And article after article tell us that the Wealthy are moving to pickup trucks.
My wife and I have driven SUVs and Pickups since the 70s. Currently we have a Ford F-150 and a Ford Explorer Limited.
The sedans have been getting smaller for years, and the roofs have lowered. Today I can't even sit up in or drive the typical sedan today, they are so low roofed, and small. Long live the Pickups and SUVs as they now rule the auto world in the USA.
The sedan isn't going to die off anytime soon.
What percentage of the US population lives within a hundred miles of a coast anyway...ummm, a HUGE PERCENTAGE.
Well - I own both a mini-SUV, and a Town Sedan - I enjoy driving the Town Sedan quite a bit more...
It's kind of funny how ambiguous "cars" looked back in those days. Sort of like how todays crossovers and CUVS don't quite look like a sedan or a truck per se.
