7 gas-sippers that offer rebates
For all the bad news that seems to come out daily about the automobile industry, it’s a boom time for some manufacturers and their dealers.
Honda dealers are reveling in the stampede of buyers looking for fuel-efficient cars. Sales of the subcompact Fit sedan are up 53 percent over a year ago, and the Civic was the best-selling car in the United States in May.
Toyota is doing equally well with its Corolla and, of course, its Prius.
Some dealers are reporting that they have almost no backlog of fuel-efficient cars and that it’s not unusual for cars to be snapped up on the same day they’re unloaded from the transporter.
What this means for shoppers is that there are very few deals out there on these subcompacts, and the situation is likely to get tighter as gasoline prices continue to rise.
