If you haven’t heard already, Cash for Clunkers is yet another move making folks here in the US don our best consumer coats and come to the spending party.
For vehicles less than 25 years old, registered and insured for the full-year preceding the trade-in, and never get you laid, the CARS Allowance Rebate System program will hand qualified applicants a few grand on top of their vehicle’s current trade-in value to buy or lease a brand new ride.
This means consumers may receive up to a $4,500 discount for their trade-in vehicle when purchasing or leasing a new vehicle. Almost 30,000 different vehicle models qualify for the program so this might be just the right discount for you to take advantage of if you’re in the market for a new vehicle. Check the website for more details and the most up-to-date information.
Then again, as Julie Schwietert examined the other day: who does Cash For Clunkers really benefit?
