Man, that was heartbreaking to watch. That engine had a full life ahead of it still! Damn this political world we live in where quantity beats quality. :(

I want to punch those guys snickering and laughing about it in that video. @$$holes couldn't even tell it wasn't a gasser!! (mislabeled it on the video)

That actually disturbed me more than I care to admit. I left the owner of that Youtube channel a nice little comment about the special place in hell for him and how he should get there...-cuss

It sure was sad to see a lot of really good vehicles destroyed for political reasons at taxpayer expense. Hey...at least it's over and with money tight I doubt anymore C4C programs will be funded any time in the near future.

People ie the hippies fail to realize leaving an older functional vehicle on the road is less intrusive to the environment than building a brand new one. You really gotta look at the big picture.

The transportion fuel usage alone of getting parts and supplies for new vehicles to the factories. I read recently the best car to buy is actually a Wrangler since there is minimal transportation costs since it is built close supply of parts.

The C4C program did nothing for the environment or the economy except try to play god circumvent (SP?) the nature process of supply and demand....

Whatever.

I wasn't aware the IDI's qualified for one of Americas biggest mistake programs.:dunno

Thanks to the C4C program, I now can buy new parts cheaper than used parts around this area.:***:

Maybe we need to start flagging every C4C posted youtube video as inappropriate.;Really

I like the flagging idea. That truck had perfectly good potential, I woulda have killed for those headlights..... This is just as bad as the 30 something Gen 1 Lightnings that got the death.....

What will make you extremly sick is to figure out the actual price for each vehicle on the C4C...its just a little more than $4500...
