It's too soon to tell anything. Automobile inventories are at a 24-year low. Right now dealers have fewer incentives to offer discounts so soon after the program and with inventories so low, and consumers have fewer options to choose from.

The dust hasn't settled yet. At least the country isn't sitting on a huge inventory. That in itself is a common indicator of a recession. When people need to replace their cars in the near future (it will happen), where will those cars come from? Oh, maybe Detroit, for one.
