Seems like it was way more popular than I gave it credit for. I think there are some good intentions in the program but I think the benefit is more for auto manufacturers than anyone else. .-= FFB´s last blog ..You Shouldn’t Buy This If… =-.

Wow! Here one day and gone the next. I didn't think much of the program. My concern was seeing people persuaded into big new car payments after trading in their clunker. Will be interesting to follow this. .-= Jason @ One Money Design´s last blog ..The Baby Step and Money Map Dance =-.

Good find, Matt. I'm assuming some dealers had already made the deals using the credit. Now they'll be stuck holding an interest-free govt note till this gets worked out. I guess that's what they get for counting on the US govt though. .-= PT Money´s last blog ..Cash for Clunkers Questions =-.

It sure didn’t take long, did it? It went live less than a week ago, and now it’s suspended. I have no problem with that – it’s just another waste of money program in my opinion. I’m sure we’ll see legislators trying to re-activate the program over the coming months though. We shall see!
