    The "flaw" is that the dealers are afraid that they won't get paid. Apparently, the govt. agrees. Nice.

    i heard on the news that there was enough money for 250,000 cars. They are saying that only 50,000 cars have been traded in so why are they out of money. Something doesn't compute.

    Something doesn't compute here either. He got $8300 for his clunker That's almost double the allowance.

    I think Dodge, and maybe another manufacturer, was matching the CFC funds.
