One side effect becoming apparent is Sandy's influence on the used car market.

The National Auto Dealers Association estimates that prices could increase 0.5% to 1.5%. That may not seem like much (550-S175 per vehicle), but Edmunds.com suggests that in the short term, prices could jump $700 to $1.000.
