Cash for Clunkers begins!

The federal program known as "Cash for Clunkers" is now underway, with people racing in by the score to trade that older, not-to-economical vehicle, for a new, ecologically and economically sound vehicle... not to mention the Zoom Zoom they get by default simply by getting their new Mazda from Ricart Mazda!
If you are planning on taking advantage of "Cash for Clunkers", we'll see you soon!

Mazda Ricart does "CARS" Math

At Ricart Mazda we sat down with a calculator and did a little simple math involving the numbers you have heard thrown around whenever you hear about the "Cash For Clunkers" program.

The first number is one-billion, the amount of money the program has been given. That looks like this...$1,000,000,000. In case you haven't counted yourself, that's with nine zeroes!

The next number is $4,000, and that's the average amount to be given by the program when you trade an uneconomical vehicle.

So, if you divide $1,000,000,000 by $4,000, you get 250,000 that will get the cash. In today's automotive environment, that is 8 days worth of new car sales across the United States. Eight days!

The CARS program will certainly help many people to get a more economical ride, but the resources are limited, and will be honored on a first come, first served basis, so the early bird will indeed catch the worm. That's why at Ricart Mazda, we invite our customers to visit our store in The Ricart Megmall now to lock in the new Mazda they want, and make certain everything is in place to help make sure they do not miss out! There's even a special number they can call to set up their visit, 888-355-6934.

That sure is a bunch of numbers, so even if you aren't very good at math, the result is clear... if you are planning on going with the CARS program, best to come see us sooner than later!
