Tried to trade my old 89 Dodge 250 today for a new O9 Chevy Silverado 1500 WT. Guess what the Dodge don't qualify. The 3/4 ton Dodge according to the program is a class 1 truck and the 1/2 ton Chevy is classified as a Class 2 truck. The Dodge mpg # is 11 and the chevy mpg is about 17. I thought the purpose of the program was to increase gas mileage.
Also the dealer has done about 7 trades and has dropped out of the program fearing he will get stuck without the $4500 . The dealer says he's afraid the money will runout while his paperwork is in the pipeline.
What a mess !!!
As a side note my 89 Dodge 250 gas gussler will quality for a Chevy Colorado 4 cyl. with its short 6 foot bed.
