How much of that money is spent on healthcare costs for vehicle related injuries?
Vehicles are net gain for the economy even outside of manufacturing-sales aspect - transportation of good, people is undeniable gain. Our way of living will all but collapse if not for vehicles.

The same cannot be said for guns - outside of manufacture and sales they do not produce any meaningful economical input. Hunting for food being the only gun application that interfaces with economy and is negligible.
