What really needs to happen is make that federal tax incentive available to all even those with zero tax liability. Then if they also made it point of sale even better. Of course if that happens there would be no $5000 incentive from Chrysler you can bet. May even have dealer mark ups like on the Rav4 Prime.

You are right though, a beater with a heater will almost always be the least expensive thing to drive. Especially if you figure no finance cost and no full coverage insurance. If you can do repairs even better.
