If you looked at the United States auto industry as 100 cars you might find a few surprises. For example, alternative fuel vehicles aren't nearly as popular as the media would have you think – they are almost equally as common as diesel vehicles. Manual transmission cars are about as common as luxury vehicles. In the United States there are twice as many imported vehicles as there are domestic vehicles. Almost seventy percent of vehicles are white, silver, black or gray and over fifty percent of all vehicles are light-duty trucks.
