Charlote, NC – The owner of Planet Suzuki says he went to work to fight for consumers when he learned that the United States Congress was considering a bill to give up to $4,500 to trade in old clunkers for more fuel efficient vehicles.
Helmi Felfel, owner of Planet Suzuki has been working with congressional representatives and fighting hard on Capitol Hill to get the recent so-called "Cash For Clunkers" bill passed. He is pleased that Congress has taken action to stimulate the economy in a way that will also improve the environment. The official title of the bill is the Car Allowance Rebate System (CARS).
"The consumer wins, the economy wins, and the environment wins," said Felfel, "There is finally an opportunity for consumers to have instant equity and obtain a vehicle for a fraction of its price," he explained. A forceful proponent of the bill, Felfel said the program will save consumers even more than the maximum $4,500 credit through improved fuel economy, lower repair bills and a more secure commute with less risk of break downs and accidents.
The federal voucher program is in addition to any cash incentives and specials currently offered by Planet Suzuki.
Consumers can receive up to a $4,500 voucher to trade in their old gas guzzlers for a more fuel-efficient new vehicle. Qualifying vehicles are considered passenger cars, mini vans, SUVs and small light-duty trucks that get less than 18 mpg, and large light-duty trucks that get less than 15 mpg city/highway combined., according to Felfel.
"Clunkers" are defined as drivable vehicles made in the last 25 years that have been continuously insured by the same owner for at least one year leading up to the trade in. On his website, www.PlanetSuzuki.com, Felfel has dedicated a special link to educate consumers on the details of the voucher program´s benefits and qualifications.
