    It will take a couple of days for the Dashboard report that breaks it down by model. Still, not half bad.

    Funny you should ask this:
    Here is something that caught my eye last night:
    Source: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/05/business/august-us-car-sales.html?_r=1

    It sounds like good news but it begs a more detailed analysis. Looking at Toyota's sales chart and Gasbuddy's fuel costs might help explain what is going on. I'll have to cut out the Tsunami year but there are plenty of data records to use.
