First, fuel prices have dropped which during "normal" times would cause fewer buyers to consider downsizing and purchasing the smaller, more fuel efficient vehicles. Second, with the econemy in the dumps, those people with the most money are going to be the ones buying cars. These are the same folks who would be less affected by high fuel prices so a thirstier vehicle is less of a burden for them. The rest of the consumers who may need a new vehicle aren't going to buy a new car when there is fear that they will lose their job. It all seems backwards, but taken in context it really isn't that strange. Two things come to mind.

This just doesn't make any sense. Oh and isn't the Land Cruiser Toyota's biggest SUV, just thought I should throw that out there.
