[QUOTE="DDD, post: 294537, member: 35"] I turned in the SUV and got a new car. It went smooth as silk and the $4500 really made it easy to swallow. The news I want to share with any of you who may be considering that deal is this. The first dealer that I had chosen to work with was not the straight shooter he presented himself to be. In addition to the big bucks, I asked him "is there also scrap metal money that comes to me?" His answer was "the scrap on all the cars goes to us because we have a guy who comes regularly and takes the old cars away and gives us $100 per car". Guess what? Two days after I bought from dealer number two a phone call came from the dealership saying :surprised1: "we will be mailing you a check for over $500' today for the scrap metal value of the SUV" "We apologize for not informing you up front but we weren't familiar with that part of the government program." Can you believe that? I haven't read a thing about dealers "having" to pass scrap metal money along. I did read that "it might be possible to negotiate some scrap metal money". SO...if you're thinking of using the program, make sure you check on the scrap metal value. It was a lovely shock for us. DDD [/QUOTE]
