Another bad thing most people do not realize is, that all the cash for clunker folks that used the program. They are going to have to pay taxes on the 4500.00 they recieved as it is considered earned income. Tell uncle sam thanks when you send them thier check.
Fortunately I live in a state that does not require inspections at this time, but that could change any second. As far as the 35 mpg, that would be virtually impossible, mainly because only a handful of cars made today actually get that kind of mileage. Probably only 1/2 of 1% or less of the population drives a car that gets that kind of mileage right now. I am just talking out of my azz on the percentage ratio, but I bet I am close.
