My 95 Silverado now has 382,000 miles. It runs great and hasn't had the heads off yet and what really is amazing is that the 4l60E is untouched as well....

I have to ask the question. Just what is an American car anymore? Toyota, Honda and Nissan all have plants in the US with American workers putting their cars together. GM, Ford and Chrysler all have plants putting their cars together in other countries and some of their car are rebadged from known imports. After what GM and Chrysler did to their dealers it will take allot more than $4,500.00 before I walk into one of their showrooms again.

I's sure like to know what Car Brand's people are trading for...

Should have been American Made only cars.

I'd say most all the profit's will be going oversea's.

Wonder how the Goverment will screw us over on the Healthcare plan...Time will tell, and we'll get the Bill.

Should have been America made purchased cars only, that's for sure. How about folks with not a lot of money to spend on a car, there is less inventory to choose from, so used car prices should go up ???

TV checked the dealers in town today, and found Toyota led everyone with 66 clunkers.

GM, and Chrysler were on the botton with the least, and Ford I step above them.



How's it going in your town ????????

By converting the clunker program into the new healthcare program.

You turn in your old sick people and they give you a new healthy person with a warranty.

Works great for those of you with wives in need of expensive body repairs!

My wife and I were buying her a used wagon the other day. I asked our salesman what were all those older used cars over there, he replied, "that's are $1,000 or less clunkers we just have been getting in". They were all POS's.

got 4500 for my worn out 90 chevy van (my $500 tow vehicle). I got a 20k loaded black ford focus 2 door (17 inch wheels, car has 'everything even satelite radio, subwoofer, etc) with rebates out the door for only 11,800. Atleast I did not reward bailed-out GM and chrysler on this handout program, plus there was no way I would buy a kia or similar. chevy tahoe is now the only tow vehicle I have for trailering. But what a deal (rather than complain, I did the evil deed, and got upgraded on the cheap). This program is really insane.
