The cheap gas fantasy seems to crash down

The cheap gas fantasy seems to crash down: Car makers can expect for some favorable environment for lucrative truck and SUV sales into the next year. As the right conditions come together for a continued oil glut. That heralds lower prices at the pump, les painful driving, and less scrutiny of EPA mileage figures on Monroney stickers.

Oil supply and inventories are rising, but the demand falls off sharply, since the overseas interests are conspiring to keep prices down— and in their favor. The International Energy Agency have predicted an oversupplied crude oil market, with “glut” conditions lasting until at least the middle of next year. The IEA predicted an increase in oil consumption earlier this year, which hasn't panned out yet.
