Edited on Fri Oct-09-09 09:23 PM by Omaha Steve

I got a letter and an unexpected check. Beardmore Chevy sold 81 cars. They have received ALL the government payments for all of them.

http://www.beardmorechevy.com/

My old Caprice went to an authorized salvage company. Beardmore got a better price than anticipated for all 81 cars. In accordance with the guidelines from NHSTA, we got a check for the surplus.

I'm getting a combined mileage of right at 30 miles per gallon on 10% ethanol gas in my Cobalt with 1,900 miles on it. That is double what my Caprice (138,000 miles+) got. And you can bet with the way it smoked, the Cobalt is much cleaner.

If anyone tells you the program failed, please show them this post.
