Sales of ALL cars are way down, but a used Honda/Toyota has higher

the market for a new Hummer compared to the folks interested in a 

good used Prius.

  Really?

  ... do you have any EXPERIENCE with this?

  Because I do.

  A 'good used Prius' is harder to sell here than an SUV currently.

  We just traded one in on an SUV.  We got significantly less than
  when fuel was $4+/gal simply because the average time a 'good used
  Prius' sits on a dealers lot is significantly longer now.

  According to the Automotive News, this is not a local phenomenon.

  Sales of SUV's are UP - Sales of Prius are DOWN.
