NEWPORT NEWS - It looks like the Highlander is in and the Prius is out — for now at least.
Trucks and sport utility vehicles will outsell cars for the first time since February, according to a December report by Edmunds.com, which tracks industry statistics.
"Despite all the public discussion of fuel efficiency, SUVs and trucks are the industry's biggest sellers right now as a remarkable number of buyers seem to be compelled by three factors: great deals, low gas prices and winter weather," said Michelle Krebs of AutoObserver.com, a division of Edmunds.com, in a prepared statement.
"It was this summer that customers were concerned about the gas mileage. It hasn't been a topic of conversation lately," said Dave Lawson, the general sales manager at Pomoco Chrysler Jeep Dodge in Newport News. The majority of Pomoco's inventory is SUVs, and its best-selling models are minivans.
Lawson said sales at the dealership are up, although they are still below last year's numbers. Low gas prices and increased consumer confidence are part of the reason, he said. But the real draw for customers is prices.
As gas prices go down, BIG truck market sell like mad!

Re: As gas prices go down, BIG truck market sell like mad!
Riding a bike would be too expensive at $15 
If gas go to $15 milk will cost $18 per gallon. Loaf of bread would be $7. Normal $0.05 candy would be $0.27. Bag of potato chips would be $1.50 (small hand size bag). Things would be tough. Rich people would even hate it, those jets would cost too much to maintain, not to mention the yacht.
Note to self: Don't forget to invest in gold bars.

Re: As gas prices go down, BIG truck market sell like mad!
they should try moving up further north. here we have 35cm snowstorm and schools don't even close
hell i remember last year, we had a huge storm (most roads blocked) the night before a final exam. instead of canceling it, it was just pushed back 1hour

If you got the weed
I got the pipe
We can get high together
All night
If you got the weed
I got the light
We can get high together
All night
It's 9:45 work start at 10
So it looks like I'm callin'
In sick again
I'd rather get some herb
And kick it with my friends
Hit the beach
And treat it like a weekend
Me and Jenn
Ain't really speakin'
So baby girl come over
This instant
Got a new ride
So fuck the speed limit
I live by the 'W's
Weed and women
I live on the beach
Down the street from cheech
I can't buy you a drink
And it's not that I'm cheap
I'm just broke ma
To let you know
But some how
I always got some weed to smoke
And if I don't
I'll still get you high
With my love
Under the moon sky
21 years young
Got a limited time
'Cause we livin to die
So I'm livin it right
If you got the weed
I got the pipe
We can get high together
All night
If you got the weed
I got the light
We can get high together
All night
It was saturday
Took her to a play
It was the matinee
I didn't even pay her
The daddy say
That he don't like my ways
Probably 'cause I hit it three times today
Dropped her off late
With a sticky face
So a kiss on the cheek
Is your mistake
Drivin' down PCH
With a smile on my face
And a blunt in my ash tray
A cute chick on my side
And her ass is great
Almost out of gas
So we hit the bank
I didn't pay so I told her thanks
When she lent me the card
And filled my tank
Yeah she in the scene
Yatta yatta
With evisu jeans
Sidekick in her purse
Alexander mcqueen
I got my tip t-shirt
And some brand new kicks
But you know they ain't clean
If you got the weed
I got the pipe
We can get high together
All night
If you got the weed
I got the light
We can get high together
All night
High together all night
