A cargo ship full of containers at sea.

Dealers arent really accepting cars and fleet sales are down because rental-car and fleet operators

arent taking delivery either, said John Felitto, a senior vice president for the

U.S. unit of Norwegian shipping company Wallenius Wilhelmsen.

This is different from anything weve seen before. Everyone is full to the brim.

I was driving up highway 6 north yesterday, and saw a field full of new Nissan's. Kind of in the middle of nowhere.

Wonder if we'll get a "Iraqi Taxi" kind of deal from all this excess?

Iraq didn't want these cars, but thrifty Nova Scotians did | CBC ...
