"We've consistently found that online search activity describes the dynamics of consumer demand, especially for high consideration products such as automobiles," James Lamberti, vice president of ComScore Networks, said in a statement.

On the guy quoted below:

- What he drives now

Big cars are the craze and get on board or get out of the way. I drive a American truck and there is no way in **** im going to go downgrade to some economy vehicle. Id rather be the one that survives the impact with the small car then the poor schmuck treehugger that i run over. Id rather pay the money for the gas then have to worry about some ******* in a rice rocket blowing through a light and hitting me in the side.. Its much more comforting and far cheaper then anything like a mercedes or beamer...
