Comment: I think it is good for some people but for people like me it is not. I have a fuel efficient car now that is having problems and I will most likely have to get another used car which probably wont be like this car and I have tried to trade this car in and it does not fit the CARS program so I don't think it will help all. And besides that the people that are trading in their cars to get new ones chances are they will not be able to keep their new cars by marie
