The media has lately claimed that "Americans want to buy SUVs", but if you go to a car dealer, even an asian car dealer, you might see a large number of deeply discounted SUVs in front and get a bunch of excuses about why they don't have any new small cars for sale.

Of course you always expected this from general motors, but it seems like when a flood washes out the factory that makes Honda Fits and CR-Vs you have a lot of trouble finding Fits but no trouble finding CR-Vs.

I think it's more accurate to say that carmakers want to sell SUVs as opposed to drivers wanting to buy them.
