We just traded in our 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee for the significantly more fuel efficient Lexus 400h (the "h" stands for hybrid). Unfortunately, we won't see a dime, as we didn't purchase a "new" car.

This has been a hot topic recently and i want to thank you for bringing in some new facts, such as the MPG. I think that way to many Americans have and buy new cars all the time. each of those cars is then another pile of junk. Why can't we star making cars that last longer? why can't we star using cars longer? Thanks for the post! Thanks for the information.
