Obama can’t close the deal, New York dealers say no more Cash-for-Clunkers

Hundreds of auto dealers in the New York area have withdrawn from the government’s Cash for Clunkers program, citing delays in getting reimbursed by the government, a dealership group said Wednesday.

Want to know how badly things are going for the Obama administration? Thanks to the Cars-for-Clunkers fiasco, people probably trust car dealers more than they trust the government.

Hundreds of auto dealers in the New York area have withdrawn from the government’s Cash for Clunkers program, citing delays in getting reimbursed by the government, a dealership group said Wednesday.

The Greater New York Automobile Dealers Association, which represents dealerships in the New York metro area, said about half its 425 members have left the program because they cannot afford to offer more rebates. They’re also worried about getting repaid.

“(The government) needs to move the system forward and they need to start paying these dealers,” said Mark Schienberg, the group’s president. “This is a cash-dependent business.”

“Well, what’s the big deal,” the President responded. “Why don’t they just print more money like we do.”
