I think its as prevalent, if not more than it ever was. Use of car lighters for smokers is probably not so common anymore. No smoker in 2015 wants to wait 15 seconds for that lighter to pop out. 

Edit: Why is this being shitted on? Because i think smoking is still prevalent in the US? Or because i miscalculated the timing on those car lighters? Yall are strange. 
I love you anyways.
