How many cars are there in the US?

Dear cita82-ga;

Thank you for allowing me to answer your interesting question.
According to ?Driving Today? Managing Editor, Jack R. Nerad, who has
studied the automobile industry and driving trends and written
numerous articles on the subject for decades:

?There are approximately 230 million passenger cars in the United
States (140 million cars, 28 million SUVs, 38 million pick-ups, and 18
million vans and minivans)??

In 1999 Carol M. Browner, then Administrator of the Environmental
Protection Agency, predicted that by 2010 there would be as many as
270 million cars in the US. If current trends continue that 1999
prediction now appears to be right on the money.
