The shockingly high prices on fuel seem to go down and almost every day we can see the gas is getting more affordable again. It doesn’t hit the pocket as hard as it used to just a month ago.

But this is not the reason for people to change their mind on buying fuel sipping cars and deny pickup trucks and sport-utility vehicles. Small cars are flying away from the dealership even before they can stock them. Ford F-150 truck has been the best selling auto in the country for almost two decades, but in May 2008 it gave up the leadership to Honda Civic.

The hybrids are on the top of the list, though there are different small cars, which get good gas mileage and help people to save. Ford tries to compete with the Japanese automakers by advertising Ford Focus and Chevy Malibu, but the Americans have already given their hearts to Toyota, Honda and Nissan.
