Quoted from benheck:All anybody wants now are crossover vehicles (which are just station wagons with a higher wheelbase and a hump in the roof)
If your plant isn't making those you're done.
Also cars are too damn expensive these days. Plus the millennials don't have any money to begin with and also have zero brand loyalty when they do use their parents money to buy.
I love my crossovers. We haven't had a "car" in 5 years now. When she got a new crossover 5 years ago, I got her "old" Escape that we bought in 05. It's an 04 and it's sitting at ~216k miles right now. It's becoming way less reliable, so she got a new Traverse and I got her '13 Journey. Only bad thing about the Journey is its roof is too low to fit a pin, but I'm going to get a small trailer and do it that way.
Bottom line is that the added ground clearance and typically available 3rd row seating in crossovers is a huge appeal and they are very versatile. My worst vehicle is my 04 V6 Escape that gets 22 mpg with the AC on all the time in the summer. The other two are getting 23-25, which I can live with for sure. All are V6's and most getting more HP than V8's did 20 years ago or less.
