That was my eighth load of scrap. Read through the link I posted and go back a few pages. Some whining and other people telling the whiners to STFU! The photos are also being posted in other forums on the site as an example how some people are helping keep the value of old VWs up high

I'm not in favor of the EPA and i'm not a green freak. I told them, that white smoke that pours out of the engine is harmful to the earth...no such luck getting a reply back..LOL.

The whole cash for clunkers was a joke.

That makes me very angry. Looks like they sabotaged the first one (*points to big puddle of oil) still lasted remarkably well. Dodge engines=better than kevlar

they usually drain the oil and refill it with water and sodium silicate.

Check out the latest turd I hauled home. A friend "scored" it off Craigslist for $100 and only wanted the engine and transmission. I pulled the seats, front wheels, and the glass. The inside has been filled with scrap metal and I just need to pull the transmission. Then, it's off to the scrapyard.
