Used-vehicle sales are set to rise again in 2017 after jumping 4 percent last year, the fastest pace since the Great Recession. Despite the projected sales increase, demand is unlikely to keep up with rising wholesale vehicle supplies as more off-lease vehicles return to the market. The growth is going to occur, but it is not going to occur as fast as the increase in wholesale supply. As a result, there will be downward pressure on used-vehicle prices. Despite a glut of off-lease vehicles beginning to enter the used market over the past year, pricing has remained relatively stable s...
Do you remember the tweet Donald Trump has shared with us about how he disagrees with General Motors building a new plant in Mexico? The new elected-president criticised the company, and threatened it with big border taxes. The CEO of GM finally reacted to the statement, by saying that manufacturing decisions and plant investments are made far in advance of production and can’t be easily reversed. This is a long-lead business with highly capital-intensive investments—decisions that were made two, three and four years ago. General Motors has no plans to move sma...
Toyota Motor Corp. plans to invest $10 billion in the U.S. over the next five years, the same as in the previous five years. This will be made in order to meet demand and upgrade plants to build more fuel-efficient models.

The decision was not in response to Trump's remarks made in a recent tweet, but was part of Toyota's business strategy to invest in the U.S., where it has 10 plants in eight states. Planning ...
America has its favorites when it comes to cars and it's Toyota Camry. Being a leader for 15 years, that is something any car maker would want for its cars. Exclude the pickups and trucks, and no one else can beat the Camry. The question you might have now is will it be able to keep the crown as it got redisigned? We've seen impressive sales of Toyota's RAV4 and Honda CR-V, since buyers are switching to more versatile SUVs and forget about passenger cars. The Camry, last reworked four years ago, has made a living by being a solidly reliable if dull ride for people who si...
Questions about Uber's driver screening aren't about to go away any time soon. A Dallas woman is suing Uber and Honda after her ridesharing driver ran a red light, leading to a crash that left her paralyzed from the chest down. The lawsuit alleges that the parties involved (including the driver and the Odyssey minivan's owner) not only didn't provide adequate safety, but let the driver operate the vehicle without insurance. He had also been arrested for drug and gambling charges that should have been red flags, according to the suit. An Uber attorney had no comment. ...
