Does Your Trade-In Qualify for the Cash for Clunkers Program?

Published by G

Here is a quick way to find out if your clunker qualifies for the government’s Cash for Clunkers program. Simply follow this link. Then select one of the following:

1) A car, pickup truck, van, or SUV with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 8,500 lbs. or less
2) A truck, van, or SUV with a GVWR greater than 8,500 lbs. and less than or equal to 10,000 lbs

Then select the year, make and model, engine and transmission.

In the end, you should see a screenshot similar to the one below.

Cars over 25 years old do not qualify for this program, so the cutoff is essentially 1984.

2007 & 2008 Lease Programs and Incentives from Mazda

Published by G

While poking around the web to find what type of lease cash incentives Mazda is throwing around these days (I really trying to confirm the $700 rebate my dealer threw at me last week) I came upon this page. Word of caution, these leases are based on MSRP. So the drive-off seems rather high. However, if you are able to get the drive-off waived (should be able to get most, if not all of that waived), you are looking at a pretty darn good lease.

Here are a few of the lease incentives going on:

2008 CX-9 Sport FWD
$329/Month, 24-Month Lease, $3,424 due at Lease Signing after $1,300 MAC lease cash back.

2008 CX-7 Sport FWD
$229/Month, 24-Month Lease, $2,824 due at Lease Signing after $1,000 MAC lease cash back.

2008 MAZDA3 i Sport 4-Door AT
$179/Month, 24-Month Lease, $2,179 due at Lease Signing.

2008 MAZDA3 s Sport 5-Door AT
$249/Month, 24-Month Lease, $2,249 due at Lease Signing after $250 MAC lease cash back.

2008 MAZDA6 i Sports Sedan Sport Value Edition AT
$229/Month, 24-Month Lease, $2,229 due at Lease Signing after $1,500 MAC lease cash back.

The Amount due at Lease Signing is higher in the following states: Connecticut ($2,742); Massachusetts ($2,819); Rhode Island ($2,871); Virginia ($2,537); and West Virginia ($2,550).

2008 MX-5 Miata Sport MT
$219/Month, 24-Month Lease, $2,219 due at Lease Signing after $1,000 MAC lease cash back.
