To a lot of profit in the car, say the authors of the study, it is essential to sell a model well established, and then you either 1) sell expensive cars, or 2) sell lots and lots of cars .

The Detroit Three occupy the stage of profitability with their pick-ups because they sell very expensive and they sell a bunch.
