And the crown goes to...

As the year winds down, the number crunching beings and auto sales are no different. Recently the unofficial car results were announced. The best seller should not be a surprise - it's been leading the pack since 1981 - the Ford F150. And the number two? The Chevy Silverado. Ford's record stands in stark contrast to those that continue to claim the Big Three forced gas guzzlers down consumers' throats. A vehicle is not the best seller for 27 consecutive years by being forced upon consumers; it is the best seller because consumers demanded and purchased it.

Michael Moore and others of his ilk would like to use the government to force the Big Three to stop making "gas guzzlers." They would be killing the goose that lays the golden egg.
