Another friend traded in a beater of a Ford Ranger for a brand new one.
But what's wrong with that? Great trucks, more gas efficient. Since this Cash for Clunkers debacle was going on anyhow, that was as good a use of the incentive as buying some stupid Prius that you can't haul three hunting dogs in the back of.
(that reminds me. I need to measure my F150 to see if I can get a third dog crate in the back. I may have to use one of my narrow SUV crates to make it fit. Alternatively, my oldest dog can just ride in the back seat. She's pretty much a lady of leisure now anyway.)
I fully agree. This proves that people at large are vastly more intelligent than government agencies.
You mean, other than the fact that it forces US taxpayers to help fund the trucks of others?
