I am sooooo very happy that some of my tax dollars can help some one in a better financial position than me buy a new car!!! Absolutely S T U P I D !!! If they can buy a new car let them do it on their own. The program should have been set up for US made cars...yes, even Toyota, BMW, Honda, and others. A survey showed that 1/2 of the buyers were going to buy a new car regardless and about 85% had put off their buying for a few months since they heard about the program being in place. If they wanted to make a bigger impact then it would be more financially responsible to give that money to people that have already bought over 40 mpg cars (3 banger Geo), to help us keep them on the road!
