@Laurence:  That 88% number has been totally debunked, multiple times, yet still pops up whenever someone wants to make that claim.  Try running the same calculations on the following year's ACS data, or almost any other year, and you get an entirely different conclusion.  In fact, for one of the years, the number of additional cars exceeds the number of additional households, so your can't really replicate the calculation.
