2008 Fuel Economy Guide Available for Download

The EPA has issued a comprehensive PDF guide to fuel economy of all 2008 vehicles, which you can download by right-clicking here.

In today's gas market, buyers are more sensitive than ever about buying cars that get good mileage, and more important, they want the government ratings to be as accurate as possible -- nobody wants to buy a vehicle that gets 10% worse mileage in the real world than the sticker rating.

To address this situation, the EPA has started using an updated test to assign more accurate MPG ratings to new vehicles, and you can learn about that by watching the video in this post.

With Home Prices Dropping, Car Prices Are Sure to Follow

It's accepted wisdom now that overall auto sales will drop in 2008. This is seen as a function of the housing bust, during which as much as 20% of new car purchases were funded by residential real estate profit, home equity cashouts and the general euphoria in real estate related industries.

Now that home prices are dropping -- and will continue to do so until they fall in line with median income -- we believe the average new vehicle transaction price will drop as well. If houses can fall 10%-30% in value, why not cars?

In November we ran a story from Comerica Bank stating the average transaction price of a new vehicle was $29,024. Our projection is this number will fall below $25,000, perhaps in 2009 if not this year, for several reasons:

1. Less money to spend. The option of taking cash out of a home to finance a new purchase is gone. The psychology of spending "free money" to buy a luxe ride will give way to folks actually having to make the payment out of their own pocket. And with many people paying even more for housing due to adjustable rates, they will choose cheaper rides.

2. Gas prices. While $3 a gallon gas isn't as draconian as five bucks, it will have an effect over time. People are already choosing more efficient crossovers and smaller SUVs over the big buses, and V8s are going out of favor. Look for more people to choose V6s in cars and for four-cylinders to pick up in popularity.

3. Negative equity. A greater percentage of folks are upside down in their cars, and have been rolling their balances into new loan agreements. To catch up, their new purchases will have to be cheaper and it's going to take years to eat away at the balance.

4. New frugality. In a tough economy, the value of money becomes more dear. People will start thinking twice about how much money they spend. They will choose cheaper cars, perhaps with more options, but the luxe-marques are in for a rough ride.

5. New wage structures. The Detroit car companies have made big headlines with their new labor deals, that allow them to replace higher paid union workers with new hires at a lower wage scale. The higher wages translated into higher sticker prices; the lower wages will allow for slimmer price hikes and even reductions.

6. Battle for fewer consumers. Don't let the tough talk fool you. As fewer cars are sold throughout 2008, the rebate war will kick into full swing -- and spiffs will help bring down the average transaction price.

This last reason is why we launched Current Auto Rebates, a site that publishes all the rebates for every model in a single PDF file, to make bargain hunting that much easier.

Harness the power of free price quotes!

Many of you have seen the link to get a free dealer price quote on our pages, as well as in our Current Auto Rebates report.

The free price quote is one of the best tools for savvy vehicle shoppers -- it's convenient, and there is absolutely no obligation to buy anything. Here are some of the other advantages:

-- You are essentially putting a bid out to local new vehicle dealers to compete for your business. In many cases, several dealers will respond to your price quote request. Armed with your knowledge of MSRP and rebates, you can then have dealers compete on price for your car buying dollars!

-- You can fill out a free price quote for each vehicle you are cross-shopping.

-- Schedule your test drive appointments. Just think, you know longer have to suffer the indignity of walking into a dealership and either being ignored or descended upon like a piece of fresh meat.

-- The dealership will have the vehicle you are interested in ready and waiting [if they are pros, which many are nowadays, given the competition of the Internet.]

-- You will be doing 90% of the work that goes into buying a new vehicle from the convenience of your own computer -- how civilized is that!

'Buy American' Desire Drives Many New Shoppers to Purchase Domestic Rather Than Import Nameplates

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif. -- Despite the fact that import vehicles make up nearly 49 percent of the U.S. auto market, the country of origin still plays a crucial role in consumer choice of which make and model to purchase, according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2007 Escaped Shopper Study released today. The study provides a comprehensive evaluation of why consumers may consider one model, but ultimately purchase another.

Nearly 80 percent of new-vehicle buyers limit their consideration set to include only domestic models or only import models. Among those who cross-shop for both import and domestic models, consumers who ultimately buy a domestic frequently do so because they simply decide they do not want an import. Buyers of domestic new-vehicles also frequently decide against import brands for financial reasons, most often citing that the import didn't offer aggressive rebates or other incentives.

Toyota, Isuzu Plan Joint Bio-Diesel Engine, Paper Says

Toyota plans to propose joint development of a new diesel engine, powered by biofuel, with Isuzu Motors Ltd under a tie-up accord they recently agreed to conclude, Toyota officials said Thursday.

According to KeralaNext.com, Toyota is aiming to make the new engine commercially viable in about three years. The two automakers will develop a device to control the supply of biodiesel fuel to the engine and technology to secure the necessary strength of parts. Biofuel engines are friendly to the environment as they reduce the emission of harmful sulfur oxide and particulate matter.

Toyota President Katsuaki Watanabi said his company approached Isuzu at the end of July about a deal: "We anticipate the growth of diesel engines going forward," said Watanabe.

Two Isuzu Project Pickups to Be Displayed at SEMA

i-290 Sport Truck and i-370 Off-Road Truck Developed by Street Scene Equipment

Two exciting and aggressive Isuzu Pickup project vehicles, both developed by Street Scene Equipment of Costa Mesa, California, will be displayed at this week's Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show in Las Vegas.

The project vehicles -- a 2007 i-290 Extended Cab Sport Truck and a 2007 i-370 4x4 Crew Cab Off-Road Truck -- are designed to show consumers how they can customize an Isuzu Pickup with readily available aftermarket equipment.

"These trucks may look like concept vehicles," said Rick Stipa, executive manager, accessory and product planning for Isuzu Motors America, Inc. "But any customer, with a little bit of effort and imagination, can own a new Isuzu truck virtually identical to either of these showstoppers."

Improving Child Safety in and Around Cars

When it comes to precious cargo, children are at the top of the list. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, child safety seats are extremely effective when properly installed - reducing the risk of death by 73 percent for infants and by 54 percent for toddlers. But according to the Safe Kids organization, only 20% of child seats are installed correctly.

OnStar Gets Druggie Arrested

This has got to be a minor headache for the GM PR people -- an Onstar operator contacted police when s/he couldn't hear Ralph Gomez in his Cadillac Escalade, so the operator called police as part of the safety system's protocol. Gomez was showing off the system to his girlfriend at the time.

When police arrived, they spied cocaine that was "clearly visible" on the center console, according to the Associated Press. The cops arrested Gomez, took his drugs, his money and his Escalade.

This episode will probably not wind up in one of those OnStar commercials. Never mind the stereotype about the Escalade.

On GM Board, Jerry York will Make Donald Trump Look Like a Socialist

Now that Jerry York has a seat on the General Motors board of directors, it would be a good time to review the speech he gave during the Detroit Auto Show.

As soon as his new seat was announced, I told a friend at another car company that the guy was serious about cutting executive salaries -- and during a lull in the conversation I found the news on the web. Which lets me know I should do less talking and more writing.

So far, GM has cut salaries and investors dividends since York climbed aboard the listing ship.

In order to get ahead of his next move, look for an announcement that GM is going to cut the Saab and Isuzu brands from its lineup, and hasten the sale of half of GMAC, its finance arm.

York also made some noise that Hummer might be a good candidate for divestiture, as he didn't see the benefit it brought to the company. In addition, look for the further consolidation of GMC-Buick-Pontiac into a single line.

So far York hasn't made much noise about how dealers are going to have to pay to help the company turn around, but since I was sitting in the audience while he delivered his "How to Save GM" manifesto, smart money says that everyone will be asked to participate in the "equality of sacrifice."

Car Buyer's Notebook Podcast #125: Let the Salesman Speak!

Now this is a brainstorm -- Car Buyer's Notebook is now accepting video and audio clip entries from car sales professionals, in which they describe a vehicle they sell -- and try to convince our audience that it is a "must buy."

Clips MUST be between 30 and 45 seconds long, and in the case of video, should show the salesperson either in front of or sitting inside the vehicle.

In order to enter, clips must be e-mailed to us at editor@carbuyersnotebook.com, and they MUST come from a recognizable dealership address and also include the dealer's phone number.

That's it. We're specifically are excluding dealer principals and/or managers. We want to hear from the sales people. Our goal is to give our audience a different, fun kind of content, to get the retail side of the industry involved and also, to show new vehicle salespeople in a light they don't often get to present themselves in. We're excited about this!
