charlier Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I wonder how long it will be before the lobbyists for makers of small gas engines push for their own version of cash for clunkers.That would help sell millions of new lawn mowers, garden tractors, weed wackers, chain saws, electric generators, etc.I laugh when some people justify the cash for clunkers for cars using "cleaner air" and ignore the small gas engine machinery that also negatively impact air quality as well.

joe_padavano Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Am I the only one who finds it ironic that the Fast 'n Furious movie franchise has caused the scrappage of more vintage iron than any government Cash-for-Clunkers effort? Why aren't we worried about that?(And don't even get me started about 1969 Chargers...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some good stuff there.Here is SEMA's letter to President Obama and leaders of Congress:http://www.semasan.com/images/pdf/2009-Letter-to-President-Obama.pdfI am surprised that SEMA has not sent something about this out to their members and newsletter subscribers.

2doorcoupeman Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Just watched a CBS reports about how in Europe,cars that are 9 years or older are turned in for cash.The reporter said it might be a way to increase new car sales.How about producing a vehicle that the public wants.From what I have read the Chrysler corporation does not want to build too many challengers so to save the value of the car.hmm.The car with proper financing sells great.Product drives sales.

Guest Bluesky636 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 What no one bothers to explain or even consider, is how a person who can only afford an older car could suddenly afford to buy a $20K - $30K new car after getting a $3K voucher for turning in their old car. Did I miss something? Did monthly car payments suddenly disappear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
