First, people were asking for proof of ownership, so they could show they owned their vehicle for a full year, allowing them to cash it in. Now, they'll be returning to register their new vehicle. And when they do, new owners need to bring every bit of paperwork provided to them by their dealer."That means they need their title, their damage disclosure, their bill of sale and the dealers have 30 days to get that to them," Minnehaha County Treasurer Pam Nelson said.But many of those cashing in on the clunkers program are surprised when they get to the treasurer's office windows. That's because the government's rebate of up to $4500 dollars for every clunker is taxable."They didn't realize that would be taxable. A lot of people don't realize that. So they're not happy and kind of surprised when they find that out," Nelson said.For now, the biggest impact of the program hasn't hit this office yet, as most of the paperwork is still in the hands of the dealers. But Nelson expects to see move activity in her office in the next month.http://www.keloland.com/NewsDetail6162.cfm?Id=0,89084
At 20%, that's $900, quite a lot of money. Another $250 for NY, plus NY sales tax of say $2,325 for the new, and OH BOY what a great program. Don't have the $900? Well then, here's a nice penalty each month and interest each month. Happy Driving!
Just like the tax rebate for First Time Homebuyers has to be repaid for 10 years. Poor DUmmies...even Pres. O won't give them anything for free.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!Still no free lunch. I up my percentage of defaults from C4C to 25% within six months and 40% in a year.
