CHANGE: With high gas prices, compact vehicles flying off dealer lots. “Gasoline prices may have slipped a bit from the May 8th national average of $4 a gallon, but nobody is declaring the price hike over. In fact, data from Edmunds shows that compact vehicles are flying off dealer lots at a clip not seen since the gas price hike during the summer of 2008.”

UPDATE: Reader Charlie Hallinan writes: “For one brief but happy moment I thought that fuel costs and market forces were at last delivering our long-awaited flying cars. And of course the news would appear first at instapundit.com. Then I realized it was a only figure of speech. Bummer.” No one’s sorrier about that than me, dude.
