Soon we’ll see posters saying, “Honk if I’m making your car payments”.

You could already have a sticker that says

“Honk if my kids are going to be paying for your clunker rebate”

Want to know what is happening now? Now the dealers are putting AMV stickers on the cars – that’s “Adjusted Market Value” – upwards of a thousand dollars Mark-up over sticker! It’s like we are living in car shortage land.

Throw in an M107 Barrett 50 cal. sniper rifle and you’ve got a deal!!

That Barrett is sweet! A member at our range has one. When he touches one off you don’t really hear it as much as you feel it deep down in your chest. Amazing!
On a side note, I don’t think the guy narrating that video would like to try to fire a 7.62×51 NATO in an AK. But maybe he meant it is a .308 caliber. But it isn’t, it’s a .311 caliber. Oh well…

I’m with you. I’ve seen a number of new cars in my neighborhood, including of all things a HUMMER!!
I bought a new car, not with C4C and actually it is an ’07, not new, but after 13+ years in my old car, it was time and I was prepared financially to pay for it. I hope not too many of these cars bought under C4C go back to the dealership.
I do know someone who bought a car under the C4C program who was told if his truck didn’t qualify he would be responsible to pay the 4500 to the dealership. I wonder how many people who bought new expensive cars were told that?

Hey, it’s only money.

Now your talking.

Yea! A “Cal Worthington and his dog Spot” reference! I was maybe four/fivish when those commercials were on in CA. I love to just say that phrase every now and then.

Moo.

You know, it was only reciently that I learned that the line was “go see Cal”.
Throughout my entire child hood, I always heard “pussy cow”.
It never made any sense.

Obama doesn’t want you to be able to rely on a charity. He wants you to rely on the government. Kill the charities and people will have no choice.

No one’s complaining … especially the people who will eventually pay the bill for the subsidies

They are still in diapers.

The great grand kids of Dad’s gleam in his eye will still be paying for it.

Thank Goodness we elected a community organizer.

Apparently, voters need to teach the lesson to Congress a little more forcefully.

Throw in a Bulgarian AK-47 with 2,000 rounds with 6 mags and you GOT a DEAL!

You’re not too far off, Sapwolf!

I just donated my ’89 Mazda earlier this year to Purple Heart. It is $500 unless the charity sends you a receipt for more.

Have you seen the cost of ammo and good mags lately? The deal should be that you buy the gun with accessories and you get a free car.

When the people who traded in their clunker for a $400.00 a month car payment can no longer make their payment then what?

Well, it was hardly their fault- no one told them they couldn’t afford it. They have to have a car, so we only have one option, get out your checkbooks Richie Riches!
