Wow, that was fast. Guess enough people met all the hurtles or it wasn't run the way it was set up. I wonder how many car dealers friends got a voucher? Oh, stop I've grown so cynical. I hope it went to legitimate people who needed this help and got off the roads cars that really needed to be.

Not to mention that the government spent $50 million on "administration" cost, rolled it out 3 weeks past the original start date, AND they still couldn't manage the program properly.
