The CARS program came to a close Tuesday night with nearly 700,000 clunkers taken off the roads, replaced by far more fuel efficient vehicles. Rebate applications worth $2.877 billion were submitted by the 8 p.m. deadline, under the $3 billion provided by Congress to run the program.

Top 10 New Vehicles Purchased

Toyota Corolla
Honda Civic
Toyota Camry
Ford Focus FWD
Hyundai Elantra
Nissan Versa
Toyota Prius
Honda Accord
Honda Fit
Ford Escape FWD

Toyota - 19.4% $558,138,000 in tax dollars to a company being investigated for criminal behavior. I would like a recall of that money uncle Sam

General Motors - 17.6%
Ford - 14.4%
Honda - 13.0%

Good thing we took all those big, safe, gas guzzlers off the road and replaced them with green cars that have unintended acceleration bugs.

If Toyota folds, could that help the USA business in the long run?
