I had my last car for 17 yrs, second owner, and I would still be driving her if a farmer hadn’t hit her when she was 21 years old and totaled her two years ago. She had 166,000 miles on her, got 26 mpg and looked like new inside and out. I still miss that car. If I still had her (a 1986 Mercury Lynx wagon), I would not trade her in as a clunker for a new car with years of payments and high insurance premiums.

Hey Mike,
I’m afraid that the taxpayers elect the government, many of whom apparently never were taxpayers…

Uhhhh Brad, the taxpayers ARE the government. I know it’s not a pleasant thought but it’s true.

I wish I could laugh – Jay is funny of course. I just find this program to be more waste of my hard earned tax dollars and I can’t laugh about that. I’d rather be charged less in taxes and let me spend the money how I see fit and not give it to the government to continually waste.

First time here, and I love this.. My opinion of this program is that it should be closed to any dealer that sales any vehicle that is not made in the USA. But unfortunately that is not the case. I know a few people in my area that went out and bought Honda’s, and Toyota’s, Not American made vehicles, And that is not helping in this country at all.
It really is sad that most of this money is going to bail out company’s that have decided to take most of our jobs here, and farm them out in country’s that where they can get dirt cheap labor, and get dirt cheap quality. I remember when a car made in this country was something to be proud of, Strong and long lasting. To bad Obama doesn’t try to get that back into this country. Then we could be proud again, Something this country needs…

My ’99F-250 superduty with the 7.3L turbodiesel qualifies due to the 16mpg (highway -your mileage may vary. haha) but I love my old truck, and it will probably outlast what Hussein would rather I purchase anyway. The wifes’ vehicle, older than my truck, doesn’t qualify because it gets too good a mileage. SHE wanted to trade hers in, I want to keep mine. Go figure.

The taxpayers are paying to take these cars off the road and no taxpayers are complaining because they don’t understand the rob Peter to pay Paul syndrome. Tax revenues are down and will go further in the toilet. But the US Military is buying 69 billion dollars of stuff they don’t need or want. What is wrong with this picture … film at 11 … Taxes will have to be raised to pay for these boondoggles and guess who that is ? Not big businesses by a long shot. They pay less then the average taxpayer for some odd reason.

I couldn’t have enjoyed this more… zippy and polite, with the tongue placed just in the right spot agin’ the cheek to take away all the non-warm n fuzzies this man-child possesses regarding just about everything this clear and present abomination… I mean administration, has brought forth on our once great nation.
