The auto industry isn’t really an oligopoly though. Even if you restrict to “manufactured in the US” there are more options now than there were 30 years ago _because_ the three big manufactures were making trash, and competition did the job it was supposed to.

I suppose how true this is depends on what sorts of options you're looking for. The number of acceptable cars on the market now, according to my criteria, is lower than it has ever been.
