I forgot a couple of words in my post: short-term.
My concern is that by doing this, they only care about short-term profits. YOu can say you can develop new sedans quickly, but once you're out of R&D for a car and focusing on trucks, you need at least 2-3 years to redo everything to sell sedans again.
It may prove profitable for them now but if oil spikes above $100 again, it will hurt them the most. And if the last 15 years has proven anything, it's that the US is a world leader in not maintaining stable prices in the world when it comes to oil (and fighting wars).
