Cash for Clunkers List

Re: Cash for Clunkers List
I blew up my fair share of cars in the program. Thankfully I didn't have to blow up any cool cars but I did destroy some real nice condition ones.
On the plus side I didn't have to buy gas for 2 months.

And it left a permanent hole in the used car market forcing prices up.

Oh man, that was a fun time to be a salesman. So easy to deals, and it more or less depleted our entire new car inventory.

Oh man looking at that list there were two 96 Stealths traded in. And 6 99 3000GTs, and 19 Spyders!

Whenever you use forceful and overt verbal persuasion to try to convince others to see things your way, they're probably not listening to what you say, Instead they're looking for every error in you your logic and mistakes in your facts, all the while constructing counterarguments. Worse still, they don't merely believe you're wrong; they need you to be wrong in order to protect the status quo. And since the final judge exists in their own head, you lose every time. - The Influencer
Is the level of bullshit you have to go through to change things in a direction you want, less than than or equal than the level of current bullshit?

Re: Cash for Clunkers List
I'm more upset about the 96 Stealths than the Spyders. I mean.. 3Ks.. pffft.
Re: Cash for Clunkers List
How are Hummers not on the list?

Re: Cash for Clunkers List
Max rebate for a C4C car was $4500. You could get lot more than $4500 doing a normal trade in on a Hummer at the time.
I think you'd be hard pressed to find a running H2 or H3 for less than $4500 today.

I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Ah...
But there were SPYDERS under $4500?

Re: Cash for Clunkers List
Dealerships go by auction and wholesale prices when figuring trades. They were probably just lumped in with the rest of the 3000GTs when they were being priced since they were so rare.

Re: Cash for Clunkers List
Yeah we had a guy bring in a 97 VR4 with like 75k once for trade (not a CFC), and they only offered him like $6k on trade or something like that.
