Wow, I just took a look at 5 year old list of the top 100 search phrases and their ranks

Short Tail:

Dealix's UsedCars.com use to kill it.
CarGurus.com was invisible (until you got to long tail). Not any more

Long Tail:

Branded keywords like "Nissan used cars" are MUCH better, they return lots of car dealers. This is a big improvement from 2010.

It comes from the DR Blog post: "Look-Out AutoTrader and Cars.com, There’s a new Guru in Town"
