The only hope is for the fad to somehow go out of style.

It seems hopeless but maybe there is a marketer somewhere who can convince Americans that more practical vehicles are also cool. Ford has just reentered the small pickup market with the Maverick, for example, and I believe they are doing well.

Electrification could also push people to smaller vehicles, if the range benefits are real.

In Australia the Nissan Patrol was rebadged as the Ford Maverick in some cases.
