Have you heard the new Cash for Clunkers commercials on the radio, it goes something like this "if you got suckered into that cash for clucnkers program and your not happy with your little car come on into this car dealer & we'll give you top dollar.........."
Thats AWFUL, somebody needs to smack that Ahole right in the face.
That dealer knows full well they are NOT going to give somebody top dollar for their little car, they are just going to take advantge of more people & thats not right. Ugh it makes me so angry.

I have begun to realize that this program had little to do with the environment : it was all about salvaging the car companies. It motivated people to go go out and buy a new car who might not have otherwise.There are many older cars around here. Most of them are smaller models that get good gas milage,so are little worse for the environment than there newer counteparts. There are also many people who depend on their older cars to get them to their jobs and the choice is old car or no car.
