In North America alone, sales are over $150 billion, and as the love affair with cars and trucks continues, growth prospects remain extremely positive.
Consider the following facts supporting industry growth:
- Consumers are keeping their old cars longer, but they still want them to look new.
- In the United States alone, long regarded as the new-car center of the world, the domestic car is now an average of 9.5 years old. This age has surged more than 1.5 years in the 1990s. (Lang Market Resources, Inc.)
- At the same time, the total vehicle population is growing tremendously throughout the world. Economic growth and other long-term macro-economic and demographic trends, such as the creation of new households (Automotive Marketing) largely trigger this growth.
- In the United States alone, the vehicle fleet is expected to increase by over 1.5% per year from 190 million cars, vans, and light trucks, to some 218 million early this millennium.
