Cash for Clunkers...
"WASHINGTON (AP) - The Obama administration is refusing to release
government records on its "cash-for-clunkers" rebate program that would substantiate—or undercut—White House claims of the program's success, even as the president presses the Senate for a quick vote for $2 billion to boost car sales. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said Sunday the government would release electronic records about the program, and President Barack Obama has pledged greater transparency for his administration. But the Transportation Department, which has collected details about 157,000 rebate requests, won't release sales data that dealers provided showing how much U.S. car manufacturers are benefiting from the $1 billion initially pumped into the program." ---- "LaHood, for example, promotes the fact that the Ford Focus so far is at the top of the list of new cars purchased under the program. But the limited information released so far shows most buyers are not picking Ford, Chrysler or General Motors vehicles, and six of the top 10 vehicles purchased are Honda, Toyota and Hyundai." http://www.breitbart.com/article.php...show_article=1 --------- Oh oh. Look for the UAW label, then go out and buy something without it. |

Look for the UAW label, then go out and buy something without it. I believe they actually got the 250k cars the program funded. My dealer did 30 in 2 weeks (they cheated and started making the deals shortly after the program passed) . We traded the old F150 for a Lincoln MKX (SUV). It qualified for the $4500. By last week one scrap yard here had already shredded 60 clunkers, including one 480SEL. I am shocked they didn't take all the body parts and expensive doo dads off. The only thing that really needs to be destroyed is the engine and the VIN tag. Just another example of Tom jumping to whatever conclusions support his preconceived notions, without having to wait for facts. I heard today the they were putting Sodium silicate into the engines of the "clunkers". It seems that the silica could be removed after getting credit by using Hydroflouric acid, which dissolves silica assuming no parts were bent or broken Of course that would be after you had your rebate money. |

It was another government program that came and went away. I can't remember a government program that I actually thought was really good. I think there is incredible waste in most programs paid for with other people's money. Cash for Clunkers DID give Detroit a stimulus…car dealers and salespeople got some help…some really bad cars and trucks are off the road…and more efficient cars are replacing the bad ones. A car salesman friend of mine working for a small dealership in a western state told me some interesting things about CFC. After much thought, their dealership did sign up for the program. There were many, many hoops a dealer had to jump through in order to participate not to mention getting new computers and scanners. The first five days of CFC they saw easily 100 more customers than the week before. Ten CFC deals were done immediately. My friend told me it was fun and exciting….and hard work, explaining how the process worked to those who did or did not qualify. Of those ten deals…his dealership has been approved for payment for one. ONE. That deal was finished almost a month ago. The other nine took weeks to submit to the government because the government was not ready to receive the information. When word came out that the program was being canceled, the dealership pulled out of CFC that day. They were not successful in trying to submit the other nine deals. His dealership is small and can not afford to be left holding the bag for nine times $4,500. My friend does trust the government to pay on these deals…but he expects it to be years before they do. As of yesterday (Monday), IRN/USA Radio News reported this morning that 625,000 deals were made nationwide. The CFC team now has 1,100 employees to wade through the claims…that's 568 claims per staff person. If three claims are approved per day, that's 189 work days for each employee. With weekends, vacation days, holidays, it will be almost a year before dealers are paid. CFC should have been better planned. And you know what scares me…how could the government ever expect to run a health care program? ..." |
