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.
