Despite some methodological differences between the two surveys, we find that they yield strikingly similar pictures of households' vehicle holdings. The survey data are also quite consistent with population estimates of vehicle stocks obtained from other sources.

Explaining the car industry cluster: the case of U.S. car makers from 1895-1969
Wang, Zhu; Price, David A. (2012-10)
