My wife has one more year left in college and we would like to use that money for our monthly payments on our new car until she can get back to work. Thank you very much...

They may work with you. But I don't think they are legally required to do so. Dan, I think you just need to go to the dealer and let them sort it out. They may work with you.

I have a great trade-in: a 1991 MB 300TD 4matic (16 MPG). I can't seem to find out if I can still trade in my clunker. It seems to meet the spirit of the law but I can't find any specific rules. I called the CARS hotline but got different opinions. Any insight?

The official website says the dealer is required to honor all promotions in addition to the CARS rebate but also says something along the lines of "they will be up to their usual tricks" (not verbatim) so I am sure some will try and snake out of the deals they offer. I disagree with the CARS program and would recommend doing tons of research before buying a new car or taking advantage of CARS offer, you can read my argument on my site. @MY Journey
