Well, I’m actually tossing the idea around and might take them up on the offer. I have a ‘97 Ford F250 crew cab truck that gets about 9 MPG and costs about $80 to fill it up. IF I can score another truck (newer and with better MPG) and take the $4500 plus another $4500 in matching from the manufacturer, it just may be worth it.

But there’s no way in h*ll I’m buying some stupid hybrid or a tiny econobox death trap. It’ll definitely be another full-sized truck.

You can’t get much of a truck with this stupid program. The vehicle you buy has to get a combined 22 mpg to qualify. I’ve got a small SUV with a V6 and it doesn’t get 22 combined.
