I know about how statistics can lie, but it seems that numbers can mislead just as badly. The government, when it released its numbers on the Cash for Clunkers program, kept touting the top 10 vehicles being sold.
Too bad they didn't emphasize they were splitting up the two-wheel or four-wheel drive models. To be fair, the lists released did have FWD on them, but it's still misleading.
The choice they made to split up FWD and AWD tended to keep any trucks, as opposed to cars that don't have the options, down the list. Well, the numbers were released and the Detroit Free Press put together the list for us to see.
Top 20 models sold under the U.S. government’s cash-for-clunkers program, according to a Free Press analysis of data released this weekend.
Fuel economy definitely went up for the trade-ins, although the long term impact of the program will probably be minimal from a national standpoint. But it's little things like this that make you wonder why they couldn't just release the numbers as the program was progressing?Source URL: http://ashesgarrett.blogspot.com/2009/09/cash-for-clunkers-top-20.html
