<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;"><DIV>Same here. My old '94 Ford van qualifies for the CFC, but it is still in great shape and would be a great vehicle for someone. I just had all the belts/hoses replaced, and had the exhaust manifold gaskets replaced. I'm not going to send it to the crusher. But, it is for sale since I bought a slightly used Chevy 2500 HD diesel pickup to replace it. The Chevy will pull a small trailer at almost the same mpg I was getting with the van by itself.</DIV>

I don't have a clunker to trade...<BR>I said trade...not that I didn't own one!<BR>:-)<BR>I have a std cab, 2wd, short wheelbase, V6 F-150 pickup. With the factory wheels, tonneau cover and tubular<BR>side steps it looks really good. Oh and it's red. It has over 100,000 miles on it and the book is quite a bit under<BR>the $4500 CFC value. I took it to a quick lube place yesterday. You know where they try to sell you everything from <BR>a brake flush to nitrogen in your tires. When I got out I told them don't try to sell me nothin'...It may be a cash for clunker.<BR>I thought I was going to have to fight my way out of the place. The used car guy next door even came over begging me<BR>to sell it to him!<BR>Figures, for the first time in my life I have a desirable trade and it's probably #3 down the list for replacement. Going to have<BR>to buy a vehicle for oldest
daughter this year and of course then there's the Expedition I'm really wanting to get rid of.<BR>Even when I told all these guys this they still would hardly let me drive off.<BR>Oh well..<BR>JLK<BR> <BR>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I've read that if you can't find a car now you could order one and get a voucher from the dealer so you could still get the Cash for Clunkers discount. Has anyone done this to know that we can get a voucher?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Well guys...<BR>Looks like as usual I'm a day late and a dollar short.<BR>Seems like the "cash for clunkers" program has soaked up most of the dealer's<BR>inventory and along with it the deep discounts.<BR>Looks like this will last sometime beyond Labor Day.<BR>But I'm going to keep looking.<BR>JLK<BR> <BR>
