[QUOTE="DDD, post: 294549, member: 35"] Yes, Donna, they are required to scrap the cars and you have to provide not only the title, proof that you have owned the vehicle for x years, but also that it is currently insured. The dealer notified the insurance co. and the State as well as fills in all the Federal paperwork. Alot of safeguards. To get the 4500 you have to buy a car that gets 10 or more mpg than the "clunker". Witz, I was going to get the Hundai but....the Dealer either didn't know what he was talking about or was, in fact, a typical "car dealer". I ended up with a Toyota Corolla LE 2010 for $12,500. I wasn't 'excited' by any of the cars but I am happy with what I have. Want to hear something funny? I did the deal by telephone (the dealer is 51 miles from here) and the salesman was sharp. The entire transaction took less than thirty minutes on the phone. I asked him "by the way, what color is the car?" He said "it is beige". I said "fine". My husband drove over to take the draft and turn in the SUV. As promised he called me before signing. I asked "how does the car look?" "It looks really nice but it doesn't look beige to me." "What does it look like?" "I'm not sure but the paperwork says it is beige and I know you'll like it." Remember...we don't live in a sophisticated part of Florida. The car is NOT beige. The car is bisque! :winking: How funny is that! :blushing: The dealership tags say beige. My husband said "What IS bisque?" I had to laugh. I know it is a seafood soup and a fine china color but this much I know...it is not beige! LOL DDD [/QUOTE]
