Thanks for that Clod, I guess....

Excerpt from article: "At its creation, a 1997 Bentley Continental R was one of the most powerful and exclusive cars in the world, with every hand-built copy from the English countryside valued at $300,000 and beyond.

A few weeks back, the owner of one such Continental R decided it wasn’t worth more than $4,500, had its engine destroyed and shipped it to a junkyard with the rest of America’s clunkers."

And I was thinking the guy that traded the 08 Ford Super Duty was a tool.

Wow.

Article continues:

"Some enthusiasts would have paid many thousands of dollars for the rare 1987 Buick GNX destroyed under the program; only 547 were built."

OK THAT ticks me off 100X worse than the Bentley.....

" ...and the program also liberated 22 Americans from the burden of owning a Peugeot."

^That's just funny!
