CASH FOR CLUNKERS
Here is a video clip from CNBC about the NEW & possibly already underfunded “Cash for Clunkers” program. If you already know about this program, please share your thoughts or sucess story below. (Feel FREE to leave a “pain in the butt” story. I heard those lines & paperwork were a pain?!? YES_ NO_ MAYBE_.)
“I think the CASH FOR CLUNKERS BILL is a GOOD IDEA that had to be tweaked to pass so quickly…getting cars off the roads that only go 18 MPG or less is wonderful. I only wish we would have made the new car meet at least 24 MPG instead of 22 MPG”
No wait make that 26 MPG…that’s better. How about 30? Do they make 30 MPG cars in US? I think the options could have been endless in the details of this bill. Passing this bill at all so quickly to help rebuild our economy in itself is a major accomplishment. I have to say, GOOD JOB! I think we have finally found something that makes an impact with the every man.
“This move could help KICK START the American Automakers on their road to becoming more responsive to the consumer. People want to save money YES, but they also want to make responsible choices.”
Many Americans have had a pent up need for a new car or just can no longer afford the $ bigger “GAS GUZZLERS” may add to our monthly gas expenses. This bill gave them a “guilt free solution.” By turning in an old inefficent automobile they will be reducing emissions that can be harmful to the enviornment. Some may even use chemicals no longer approved for general use or no longer meet current safety guidelines. The dealer must actually have the cars crushed & taken out of circulation. –>CAR CRUSH VIDEO
Now the CATCH is that you must put the up to $4,500 you get & put it towards the purchase of a car that gets at least 22 MPG. Most new cars easily meet that requirement so in addition to the $4,500, you earn $ in savings every time you fill up your tank! The better the gas milage the more savings so why not take time & investigate your options. Check out this website to get all the details about FUEL ECONOMY per the USEPA–> FUEL ECONOMY
No matter what angle or reason you use…the $4,500 is a GOOD REASON that NOW IS THE TIME TO BUY (if you need a car anyway):D
Already have a car? Don’t meet the requirement to earn this credit? See if you qualify for the $8000 tax rebate!
MY QUESTION IS…DO WE HAVE ENOUGH RECYCLING CENTERS IN LAKE COUNTY?
