Did You know that the:
Honda Civic Now America's Best-Selling Vehicle
The best-selling vehicle in the U.S. is now the Honda Civic.
There's a new best-selling vehicle in America, and for the first time in 17 years, it's not a pickup truck. It's a Japanese compact car that can be bought for under $20,000 and, even without its optional hybrid powertrain, squeezes over 30 miles of travel out of each gallon of $4 gas.
USA Today explains, "Not only was Ford's F-Series pickup,
a longtime sales king, passed by Honda's Civic, the May leader, but also by three more cars -- Toyota's Camry
and Corolla,
and Honda's Accord." May wasn't a complete loss for U.S. automakers. "The subcompact Chevy Aveo 
was up 44%, the compact Pontiac Vibe 
up 72%, and the Chevy Cobalt, up 19%." Sales of Ford's Focus increased by 53%. The newly redesigned Chevy Malibu 
sold so well that, according to GM vice president Mark LaNeve, "We just ran out of product."
