Given the cooperation between this show and Wards, I was fully expecting to see a segment today (maybe you will show it tomorrow) I got in my daily Ward’s email links. I have since deleted the email so I don’t have the link, but in summary, it said that the average fleet MPG of light vehicles sold in the US in 2018, *** despite*** trucks and SUVs being 69% of all sales, was actually much HIGHER.

This is yet another amazing effect of the 140,000 extra Pure EVs tesla sold in 2018 over 2017, almost all Model 3s. They not only obliterated the negative effect of the truck-heavy sales, they substantially increased the fleet MPG over last year.
