KELOLAND.COM - Dealers Still Waiting For Clunker Cash

KELOLAND.COM - Dealers Still Waiting For Clunker Cash: "Auto makers will release their monthly sales reports Tuesday and they're expected to show the first year-to-year increase since 2007. While the Cash for Clunkers program is getting all the credit, local car dealers are still waiting for their cash.

During the month long program, Billion Automotive sold close to a thousand vehicles but has only been reimbursed for 272 of them. Vern Eide sold over 200 cars and has only been paid for 27 of them, and that's fueling lots of concerns in the auto industry.

Billion Automotive cashed in during Cash for Clunkers, but owner Dave Billion is still waiting for the rest of his money from the government run program, $3.2 million.

'I wonder how long they'd wait if I owed them $3.2 million. I think they'd be at my door or at least my banker's door,' Billion said."
