What is wrong with people?  31K Crapolla's sold when damn near everything else it's segment is a better car.  Obviously folks think it is the best appliance.  SMH

Obviously we need to look at the sales volume of the fine folks in Indiana and Ohio who are growing weed as a cash crop...because that is the only way that seems rational.

Sales of the ugly Camry are down 10% for the month, but are still slightly higher year to date.

When one could buy a Mazda 6 or Fusion for the same money, both of which are really nice...
