Cash for Clunkers

[Bob Saget]

Grand Cherokees are soldiers, one of my friend has a 94(with the 5.7 V8) and he didn't change oil EVER... just add it when it got low. Dude didn't take care of it at all but it still lasted for 150k miles before it died. Roommate''s girlfriend has a 2000(also with the V8) and it has 199k miles right now, still seems to run pretty well.
I want to get one of those because they just soldier on.

Mine's got the old 4.0 V6.....I prefer the 242 selec-trac 4wd over the all-time 4wd of the 4.7 V8. I'm gonna drive it to it's grave.

Anything will last if you treat it right. My dad's current Dodge 3/4 ton had 250k on it, and his old 1/2 ton had 300k before the retards he sold it to ruined it.

There are cheap cars littered all over Craigslist, you must have not been looking very hard.

not in central IL at least...I've been looking hard for 2 months now...nothin that someone doesn't think is made of gold.

I kind of doubt cash for clunkers had an effect on the number of hatchbacks. There was a specific limit on the gas mileage (something low like had to be less than 18mpg) and most hatchbacks get decent gas mileage...hell mine gets 30mpg

I believe what you traded it in on had to get like 8-10 mpg better. But still...can't find a little hatchback.

I have a 92 Nissan sentra, 1.6l 5spd, looks like a$s, rigged as he||, has 287k on it, runs like a champ, would drive like one too, but the master cylinder is bypassing fluid //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif while driving it home, nateberrier could barely keep up in his 08 G5 lulz

Is making it very difficult for me to find a cheap hatchback car for this season //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

^^^^This. Ive been looking for a car for a while and while it helped rich ppl get nicer cars, it also destroyed all the cars that I have the money to buy... Way to go america.

The list of $$$ cars that were traded in during that horrible "program" was unreal.
