It will allow vehicle owners to apply for $500 vouchers to buy new Explorers or $300 vouchers to buy other Ford or Lincoln Mercury products, Roddy told The Associated Press.

Customers get vouchers and the lawyers get cash. At a Million vouchers at and average of $400 each, the lawyers should rake in about $100,000,000.00. Not a bad chunk of change. Of the $400 Million in coupons, probably less than 1 in 10 will be cashed. The lawyers will wind up getting more money than the plaintiffs.

I would love it if a judge banged his gavel and said that the lawyers had to accept the same worthless non-transferrable scrip as the plaintiffs. What are they going to do with 300,000 non-transferrable coupons for 10% off a Ford Explorer?
