    As far as the program is concerned, as long as parts are still available I've always been under the impression that it's "cheaper to keep her", instead of forking out money for interest on a loan, higher taxes, higher insurance rates, etc. And you know just because you get a newer vehicle doesn't mean you're not going to have repair bills, along WITH what is now a monthly payment.

    Not enthused about this program, just my two cents worth, but I do think Hurricane had a great idea!
    Part of the program requires the scrappers who take the trade in cars to DESTROY the drivetrains and useable parts.......TOTALLY ASENINE, if you ask me.

    So you trade in a clunker, and anything useable for junkyard parts cannot be used.........This really hurts the little guy who CANNOT afford a new car and drives something 10 years old, and used junkyard parts to keep it running..........For years, that is JUST what I did.

    Great point. My wife and I were talking about this the other day. Just more of the new big brother Demonut administration telling America what they are going to do. They want all these little toy cars out on the road running on tofu oil, what a joke. Guys we gotta get the voters with sense to the polls and get these idiot Democrats out of office or this country is DOOMED.
