It's also gotten surprisingly difficult to find a used car at a reasonable price (even via craigslist). Sedans "aren't popular anymore" because they're not advertised, but they're ubiquitous. It's just the lumbering giants that run like shit are also ubiquitous and makes being on the road fucking dangerous in a sedan because of poor sightlines and idiotic curb weights.
