Simple explanation ... gasoline is US$1.82 per gallon and falling fast. SUVs looking better.

I must be one of the few people who drive subcompacts/compacts because I like the size/feel of the vehicles. I would never buy a big boat of an SUV, even if gas was free. They drive/feel horrible - at least to me.

Agreed. I love small Toyota hatchbacks... regardless of the price of gas.

Especially the new breed of SUVs that are station wagons the size of school buses. I had a 1990 Isuzu Trooper once, and that thing could go anywhere. Real 4x4 with lockable hubs, lots of glass to see what's going on around you, and the interior felt spacious.
