If they require me to destroy my truck (a 78) one day, they'll have to take it from the buisiness end of a double barrel 12 guage.

I like the fact when my truck idles, it cancels out about 6 or 7 of those hybrids...haha And never mind how many i cancel out once I start driving away. haha

Besides, where the huge incentive to scrap your old clunker, and only get scrap prices, when I could just go and sell it anyway for scrap. Now they'd get some bites it they gave you blue book value and then scrapped it for a loss of $$$ to themselves.

Just everybody keep paying your taxes so we can support super-important things like this, that really matter in the long run. (sarcasm)

If they really want to clean the air up they should start cutting into all aircraft and their industries, like they have with cars (emissions, regs. etc). Maybe airplanes, etc. are cleaner than cars, but they sure use a lot more fuel than cars, trains, industry, agriculture, etc. COMBINED.
