Cash for Clunkers Program
Monday, July 27, 2009 at 3:42PM The Car Allowance Rebate System (CARS) gives consumers up to a $4500 cash rebate when trading in a qualifying used car for a new one. The CARS site as well as Cash for Clunkers Facts are good sources for more information.
KARE 11 recently did a story about the program and included one of our youtube videos in their broadcast.
John's Auto Parts will be working with dealers to recycle the vehicles traded in through this program. Consumers SHOULD NOT bring any cars to us directly that they hope to use in the CARS program as we are not able to provide the trade in rebate, only new car dealers are involved in this program.
This program appears to be creating a large demand for trading in old cars at the dealers and it looks like we might not be able to buy as many cars directly from our customers or through donations for a couple of weeks while we sort through the massive amount of phone calls we have been receiving. If you would like to donate or sell us your car, not through the CARS program, or your car/truck doesn't qualify, you can always request a quote for your vehicle after the CARS program has expired or visit our vehicle donation page for more information.

There is a great debate whether to buy new or used cars. In my opinion, if you are in a tight budget a used car will do.
