My buddy at the local Ford dealership tells me people are holding onto their vehicles as opposed to trading them in for a newer vehicle. And with all the rig workers laid off they're not walking into the showroom looking for that new shiny truck. Not a good time to be a car salesperson

In the service end people stretching the service interval times in hopes of saving a few dollars. Others are holding on to what they have and spending what they can to keep the old beater on the road longer.
