That looks just like mine Glatt. And mine is a 92'

yeah, you're right. I did a Google image search and came up with that picture. I didn't have a picture of mine handy. I don't think the picture is an '82. The lights look different, and mine had a padded vinyl top.

This is an '82 and is much closer to the way mine looked. Good comfortable car for road trips, but that's about it. A POS otherwise.

AS I SAID, I was quoting WHAT I HEARD while watching the bill go through committee. THEN I WENT ON TO SAY... Dianne Feinstein and Olympia Snow were working on a much better bill. I hope some of their ideas got incorporated into this one before it passed the full Congress.Geez. :rolleyes:

i was just pointing out that you're stupid.

Do you enjoy being an asshole or is it just a gift?

sometimes it's both.

understand my perspective. I put up a thread because I'm in the car business, and thought people might want to find out about this program. I offered to answer questions.

Why did you find it necessary to post your incorrect opinion as though it were fact even though i had linked the actual information and offered to clarify any questions?

didn't have enough time to read the link.....you were in a rush? and yet you had time to post incorrect information, and the judgement that this is a bad program.

you're like a stupid version of Aliantha. jesus.

This is a chart I remember seeing as well. In fact, I think I posted it somewhere, although it may have been on another site.

I believe that is what I said?

Glatt, whats the deal with that picture? It looks like it could be out of a Cohen brothers movie...:p

According to the chart I just posted, I wasn't wrong AT ALL in the requirments I posted. Even according to the link you provided, I wasn't wrong. And I specifically said I had not read the link YET because I was in a hurry (I have now read the link), and that I was going by what I had I seen in committee.

I am happy you were posting something to help people who might be in the market for a new car. Good for you. I STILL think the bill Feinstein and Snow were working on would have better because it would have benefited more people. Not everyone can afford a new car right now, but many people who can't might could afford a used one. Why is it taboo to say so?

Fargo!

Tan Ciera! Tan Ciera!

:lol:

THIS IS WHAT YOU SAID:

An SUV is like JEEP.....a Class 2 Truck is like an F350

most people here don't drive heavy pickups

you do this repeatedly. i've told you about it before. you form an opinion in a blink and then immediately begin to spout it as fact. I don't want you to do that in this thread if you wouldn't mind.

bwahahahahahaa

Looks like lumberjim has found himself a new whipping boy(girl).

Lucky you sugarpop.

This is the last thing I will post about this. This is from the FAQs page from the link you posted:
If both the new vehicle and the traded-in vehicle are category 2 trucks and the combined fuel economy value of the new vehicle is at least 1, but less than 2, miles per gallon higher than the combined fuel economy value of the traded in vehicle, the credit is $3,500. If both the new vehicle and the traded-in vehicle are category 2 trucks and the combined fuel economy of the new vehicle is at least 2 miles per gallon higher than that of the traded-in vehicle, the credit is $4,500.

The value of the credit for the purchase or lease of a new passenger car depends upon the difference between the combined fuel economy of the vehicle that is traded in and that of the new vehicle that is purchased or leased. If the new vehicle has a combined fuel economy that is at least 4, but less than 10, miles per gallon higher than the traded-in vehicle, the credit is $3,500. If the new vehicle has a combined fuel economy value that is at least 10 miles per gallon higher than the traded-in vehicle, the credit is $4,500.

yea. Lucky me.
