About Cash For Clunkers

What is the “Cash for Clunkers” Car Allowance Rebate System?

President Obama signed into law a program called the Car Allowance Rebate System (CARS) also known as Cash for Clunkers. This is a federal program that helps you purchase a new, more fuel efficient vehicle when you trade in a less fuel efficient vehicle.  This program runs through November 1, 2009 or when funds are exhausted, which ever comes first.
