Yes, clearly the US needed less sedans and more F150s.
Quite the opposite. Getting rid of small truck classifications ballooned the size of suvs and pickup trucks which is partially why we are in the mess we are in. There just aren’t small trucks anymore because of the changes.

Few people need the monster suvs and pickup trucks that are on the roads these days.

Could you elaborate here?
