Maybe, but I see you're still flush with bullshit.

Here, Chrysler dealership sold four cars under this genius plan.This is normally a very high throughput dealership.

The Chevrolet dealership didnt sell any...they only stocked redneck cadillacs and Corvettes, which didnt qualify for the sale.

How is a Corvette or a Caddillac a redneck car?

A redneck cadillac or cowboy cadillac is just a name they use for pickup trucks, 80. This is very much redneck country. The Chevy dealer didnt have anything that would qualify for the manditory 24+ mpg figures that were required to cash in a clunker.

I have yet to visit with the Ford dealership owners, so dont know what they did.

I've never heard that term, my bad.
