A ‘Cash for Guzzlers’ website was launched to help keep consumers informed and aware about the pending approval of the Cash for Guzzlers bill. The measure, if approved by Congress and signed by President Barack Obama, would offer up to $4,500 in the form of a voucher for consumers who would trade in their old gas guzzler for a more fuel efficient car.
The new bill aims at improving environmental conditions by encouraging consumers driving old cars to trade in their vehicle for a voucher of up to $4,500 that can be used towards the purchase of a more fuel efficient vehicle. If passed, the new bill could lead to the purchase of over 1 million fuel efficient cars, a measure some say could help the US become less dependent on foreign oil. The bill is expected to be passed before Memorial Day weekend.
According to the proposal, consumers would get a $3,500 voucher if they trade in a car that gets less than 18 mpg for a new car with mileage of at least 22 mpg. Vouchers of $4,500 would be awarded if the new car gets at least 10 mpg more than the old. More information for consumers is available at the recently established website for the Cash for Guzzlers bill, http://budurl.com/
The new website explains the bill in more detail and also helps consumers understand whether or not they qualify for a voucher, and for how much. The website also allows them to submit information on their current car, as well as select the more fuel-efficient car they would want to purchase to establish whether or not they would be eligible to receive the voucher. Once a new car has been selected, they will have the opportunity to receive competitive price quotes based on their trade-in value for their new car.
