Automotive

The industry is less profitable than in the past due to environmental regulations, changes in auto insurance and the level of competition. The use of computers in automobiles and light trucks create opportunities and the need for skills upgrading. The high price of new vehicles is creating a bigger market for used automobiles and auto repair services.
