I have a baby car seat and wanted to know how to tell if its still good. I only have the date when it was made. I rescued it…someone wanted to throw it away so I nabbed it and wanted to clean it up and donate it to someone that could use it. But is there a website I can go to…to check maybe the number on it or something? thanks

Can we still trade in our old car if it won’t start?
We have a 1992 Toyota Previa that we want to trade in under the Car Allowance Rebate Sytem/Cash for Clunkers. Problem is, car won’t start and cars traded in have to be in “driveable condition”. Can our car still qualify? could we have it towed to the dealer since it will be crushed and scrapped anyways? Overall the car is in good condition and we last drove it in March 2009
Can I still E-file if I need to attach a 1098-C form?
I did my taxes on Turbo Tax, and I donated a car in the current year and the gross proceeds exceeded $500 so TurboTax told me I need to send either the detailed letter from the charity or the 1098-C with my return, but I can’t scan or attach it to anything. Does this mean I can’t e-file?
In California is there still a program that buys old cars and junks them?
I have a 20 year old gas guzzling car that I want to replace.
Rather than sell it to someone else, for them to poillute with it, I would rather junk the car. .
I understand that there was a program in California where they would buy an old car for $1,000 and junk it.
The car I have would sell for about $1,500 on the open market, but I would rather sell it to some program that would pay me $1,000 and junk the car so that we do not have so many old polluting cars on our roads.
Is that program still available?
If so, how do I sell my car to them?
How do I contact them?
Can I still use form 1040EZ if I make a charitable donation?
I would like to make a donation of $150, and will claim on taxes next year. I dont believe I can still use the 1040 EZ form. Which form would I then use? “1040″ form? I live in California.
Is it true that a deactivated cell phone can still dial 911?
I have a bunch of old cell phones. I intend to put them in my family member’s cars with the car chargers to call 911 if the rumor is true. If not are they worth selling in a garage sale? Or even better do you know of any batter women’s shelters in Michigan that I can donate them to. Thanks!

The Inconvenient Truth about “Cash for Clunkers”: Each Car Sale to Cost Taxpayers $20k Apiece, Reports Edmunds.com
SANTA MONICA, Calif. — July 27, 2009 — Much has been written — both pro and con — about the Cash for Clunkers program that officially launches today. Complexity, limited eligibility and minimal funding are common criticisms. But so far, the chief failing has been overlooked. Edmunds.com, the premier online resource for automotive information, has determined that even if Cash for Clunkers reaches its budgeted cap, the program will only help drive about 50,000 incremental new car sales, so each one will cost taxpayers a whopping $20,000.
How is this possible? Edmunds.com’s research shows that typically 200,000 vehicles worth less than $4,500 are traded in for new vehicles every three months. At best the current Cash for Clunkers program will fund 250,000 such transactions in the same time period — a gain of only 50,000 vehicles. Given that this program is budgeted to cost $1,000,000,000, this increase will come at the cost of $20,000 per extra sale.
“The incremental sales will be limited and at a considerable cost. In effect, we are paying consumers to do something most would do anyway,” said Jeremy Anwyl, CEO of Edmunds.com. “So as a stimulus, the program fails. One could make a slightly stronger argument about the environmental benefits, but even there, the program could have been better designed.”
“Really, the best consequence is that many consumers are getting interested in the idea of a new vehicle after hearing about Cash for Clunkers; we have to hope that even if they don’t qualify, they will buy a vehicle anyway,” Anwyl told Edmunds’ AutoObserver.com. “But, how long-lived will that be? Once the program reaches its cap, interest will die down, and sales volume will fall as quickly as it rose. What will motivate shoppers to brave the marketplace in the months following Cash for Clunkers?”
Automakers must step up to continue the momentum. Anwyl points to the current Chrysler incentive program as an example of a creative marketing message that uses the Cash for Clunkers buzz to generate sales and to arm Chrysler dealers with a useful tool when working with Cash for Clunkers “rejects.”
When the US donate choppers or cars to other countries, do the donatee still bill them the shipment tax?
Or not?
How about it – cash for clunker, do you still trust them with your health care?
A lot of people are having a hard time with the Cash for Clunker program and it is drying up. This program is cake compare to the Obama Care in terms of operation. Do you start to see the issue?
Another thing, this CFC is not for the poor. It’s for the rich because they can afford to buy a more expensive vehicle. I guess Obama blew you off on this one.
Yes to anyone but does anyone have the capital to take advantage of it?

Used 2001 Honda Passport still has 7000 on car loan bill. Cash for clunkers an option? what else?
I moved to Los Angeles in September 2007 and through a car loan from Wells Fargo obtained a used 2001 Honda Passport. I really hate this car with a passion. I still have about 7000 on the car loan bill. Would I qualify for cash for clunkers even though my car is still under loan. What other options do I have? would a trade in work as well. I’m pretty clueless, I just want a new car and im trying to save up some cash as well. What can I do..
