Automakers are doing their best this summer to shore up sales with more and better incentives. In general, consumers choosing to brave the current automotive market are rewarded at every turn. Cash rebates are higher than ever, even on fuel-efficient models that were selling briskly a year ago without a single incentive. That's giving buyers the chance to cut back on the amount of gas they use and save hundreds of dollars with rebates. It's not just a good time to economize either; it's also a good time to indulge your automotive tastes. A slew of automakers have put rebates and other incentives on the convertible versions of their hottest sellers, guaranteed to put a little sunshine in your commute. If you're feeling nostalgic for the times before oil shocks buffeted the economy, there is no shortage of retro vehicles. Or, for more sedate transportation, select an economical compact, a comfortable midsized car or a practical pickup.
