Yeah, this is how he plans to pump more money into the auto industry. Even with the $4500, I still wouldn't be able to afford a car that I wouldn't WANT to drive.


There is a catch to it though. To get the full $4500, your new vehicle has to get better mileage than your old vehicle by 10 MPG. 10 MPG! Basicly, you have to trade in your Mustang GT, for a prius. And newer cars would qualify as "clunkers" also. If they get 17 MPG or less, they are considered a "clunker".

F-them. They can have my "clunkers" when I'm dead. Not a moment before. My "clunkers" will last longer than any of their "fuel efficient" vehicles, and cost less to maintain, as well as less to repair. This bill is NOT good for the economy IMO. This will promote going out, trading in their car thats paid for, and buying another car that they can't afford anyway. Just like ARM's were "good".
