Question

In spite of crisis prevailing why are automobile business flourishing cant we minimize it by less uses?

Answer 1

While sales of highly efficient cars remains strong (and motorcycle dealers are doing a land office business) the sales of gas-guzzlers (trucks and large SUVs) is in the toilet.  The industry as a whole is doing poorly.

Answer 2

Automobile businesses are far from flourishing, maybe you should do some more research on that... plants are being shut down, workers laid off, shifts cut back. pay and benefits reduced, they are in bad shape, just like the rest of this country.
