Post Scrappage bill was defeated.

From www.summitracing.com
Scrappage Bill Defeated!
Your phone calls, letters, and e-mails have paid off! Thanks to the combined efforts of the high performance industry and performance enthusiasts like you, the proposed old-car scrappage legislation, Section 822 of U.S. Bill 517, has been defeated. Your hobby, along with countless classic cars, performance parts, and jobs, has been saved. Thank you!

That was a close one.

I'd like to see someone come to my door and say, "We have come to scrap your old but perfectly running truck." I would reply with, "Who wants it first??!!"

You can wish in one hand and crap in the other.
See which one gets filled first.

I hear that. I love my gas guzzler and there's no way I'd trade it in for a four-banger with good gas mileage. I tried it once, but I'm back to the 350 and you couldn't pay me to own another four-banger.

what the government ought to do is go after the major chemical companies but that hard to do when the chemical companies have the crooked ass senators in their back pockets.
