LMAO! $500+ per month? That would be a BMW or Lexus or Mercedes. Who on earth is going to lend money for a Mercedes to someone making $20k a year? How 'bout you? Wanna lend Fred fifty grand?
You obviously haven't bought a car recently...do you think the people trading in clunkers also have perfect credit?

Your claim of motivation is equally nutty. Why would anyone willfully sell cars that they know will be repossessed in less than a year? What've you been smokin'?
You mean like all those people who got sub prime mortgages????
It is just as bad as the Democrat led sub-prime. I am sure that Fred who makes $20,000 a year and drives the 20 year old clunker worth $500 for parts can really now afford that $500.00+ new car payment. Give me a break! Look into the details of the program, it is just a way to give out cars that will be repossessed in less than a year.
Why are you lying?
It is not about getting such vehicles off the road,otherwise there would not have been so many restrictions upon the year of vehicles put in place.
Are the vehicles secretly being put back on the road?
You guys are really something. When the stimulus passed, those on the right complained that the bill wasn't stimulative. The CARS program has been very stimulative, and you are complaining about that, too. It just shows that you care nothing about your country. You only care about winning. Sore losers. All of you. Pathetic.

Because for some reason the fedgov. decided vehicles that actually ARE polluting and ARE gas guzzlers and SHOULD most likely be removed did not meet the grade.

Whine, whine, whine. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The difference between the trade-ins and new cars is almost ten MPG. That's a success. That you can't handle success from this administratrion is a personal problem.
I bought a new Road King two weeks ago. You obviously are talking out of your behind.
Do you determine someone's credit rating by the car they drive? I don't know any bank that does so. Why do you? Stereotyping? Generalizing?
Sigh...when you have less than stellar credit you cannot get a good interest rate...when that happens you end up paying more per month for the vehicle.

The stated purpose WAS to get gas guzzlers off the road right?
So restricting what can be traded in for the credit to only newer vehicles seems....foolish.
I guess you being an Obamabot makes this difficult....

$15,000 loan. Seven years. THIRTY PERCENT interest. $428.89 per month. Not $500 is it?
You haven't answered my question. How are you determining that those using the CARS program have less than stellar credit? HOW DO YOU KNOW? You don't. You're talking out of your behind. It doesn't matter, anyway. Someone with poor credit, who makes only $20k a year, is not going to find a loan that requires a $6+k per year payment. Ain't gonna happen.

Seems foolish TO YOU. I guess being a crying, whining, sore loser makes that difficult.
Ten MPG difference. Ten MPG. Get it? Oh, never mind...Murphy's Law an' all...
