got this info from a friend...
A vehicle at 15 mpg and 12,000 miles per year uses 800 gallons a year
Not only that, but with the new car and better mpg, the owner will
probably drive more. So even the already negligible savings in oil will
be even less.
Cash for Clunkers was not about saving oil though. Not really.

Right - it never was about oil, or gas - it was about UAW and dealer jobs
and propping up "our" auto companies. The better fuel economy aspect was an
after-thought.

And Global Warming, or Climate Change, or CO2 in the air, or something
like that, it was going to be all better with the clunkers declunked.
