I don't know the specifics of the cars produced at the Arlington factory, but I can definitely attest that dtremit is correct on a big-picture, industry-wide scale.

It's not just affecting SUVs, too. This is why the average rental fleet age and mileage has been creeping up over the last year or so as well as why fleets have downsized, rental availability has tightened, and rates have climbed.
