Will my car be eligible for the Cash For Clunkers program?
Saturday, August 1st, 2009 | Automotive | 4 Comments
I looked onto cars.gov to look at the requirements and then went to fueleconomy.gov to see if my car met the requirements. I have a 1996 Mercury Cougar (6 cylinder) and it gets a combined 19 mpg according to the website. I doubt it gets that much, but the requirement is 18mpg or less to be eligible. I was wondering if anyone has been successful in getting the voucher even though their car is slightly over the requirement. 10 points for best answer. Thanks!
well see the program doesn’t go by what the vehicle gets now, they go by the EPA of the vehicle when it was new so it doesn’t matter what it actually gets now

The government just passed this legislation this past week. What is the site to determine what qualifies?

How does the cash for clunkers program work?
Saturday, August 1st, 2009 | Automotive | 6 Comments
I have an old 91 Toyota Celica that guzzles gas and barely gets me to work. How does this new program work? If I am eligible, how much would I pay on a new car?
ok I know that I can get up to $4500 for a new vehicle. Got that. What I am asking is how do I know if I qualify? What do they look for? Is the $4500 considered the down payment? Do they still do a credit check? I just want to know the process.
Thanks
Yeah, it’s all kind of confusing. Here’s an article that spells it out pretty clearly. http://www.ehow.com/how_5221986_cash-clunker.html
Hope that helps!
