Absolutely, not. By all measures, it was a rousing success. Although I would wade through the lists of cars traded in from time to time and just shake my head.
Sad that so many vehicles were destroyed for no good reason.

So, what was the point of destroying the trade-ins?
If by dint of legal contract you declare them as unfit, then you're pretty much trapped in that declaration.
The program was two-pronged:
1. Give the sagging auto industry a bump
2. Get the gross polluters off the road.
In between those positions, were a ton of pretty cool cars and likely some that would be just fine as daily drivers.
Car Salesman: Yeah, we got this beauty from the Cash for Clunkers program, but it aint a clunker.
Car Buyer: Excuse me while I vomit on your shoes.
Environmentally friendly, too
Lol, I like this guy's narration
Damn, Ford's are tough to kill
Death match
Those Ford f-150's with the 5 liter were a complete POS.
, they'd self-destruct anyway.
Probably 5x as many that needed to be off the road tho, tbh.

The 90's was most certainly NOT a glory age for cars. That's probably just another dumb voting against his own economic interests because anything is better than being a "socialist"!
why did the Commodore 64s had to be destroyed, they could perfectly add 2+2

A sad film is the destruction of the EV1. Not just a story of a car but of destroying the best answer to the 4 dollar a gallon dilemma.
Maybe you should watch Revenge of the Electric Car. It's available on Netflix, and is relevant to the EV1
Some peeps still running the proto all-electric RAV4 from the EV1 days...
lol Darrin thought he had a winner here.
$50 light bulbs!
Like the 80s was any better?

80's was a decade overall.
