Trade in Your Piece of Junk
July 2nd, 2009 categories: Buyer's Advice, Green Events, Neighborhood and City events/highlights, Restaurants, Seller's Advice
Obama signed into law a great new program that the (NHTSA) National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has named (CARS) the Car Allowance Rebate 
System. This is a government program that helps you purchase a new, more fuel efficient vehicle when you trade in a less fuel efficient vehicle. See the Frequently Asked Questions for more details.
Criteria:
- Your vehicle must be less than 25 years old.
- Only purchase or leases of new vehicles qualify
- Trade-in vehicles must get 18 or less MPG (some pick-up trucks, cargo vans have different criteria)
- Must be registered and insured continuously for the full year preceding the trade-in.
- You don’t need a voucher; dealers will apply a credit at purchase.
- The program runs through Nov 1, 2009 or when the funds are exhausted, whichever comes first. First come first served
- The vehicle that you are trading in will be destroyed. The value you negotiate with the dealer should not exceed its scrap value. The law requires the dealer to disclose to you and estimate of the scrap value when trading in your vehicle.
Beginning date is around July 23. See Program Rollout

Local Restaurant Review at Johnny Rebs’
May 1st, 2008 categories: Restaurants
Information about our community in North Orange County and our restaurants.
This Week:
2940 E Chapman Ave, Orange, CA (714) 633-3369
I love to eat out and am always looking for new places to go. This week I finally made it over to Johnny Rebs’ in Orange. I was a long overdue visit and was worth the wait. If you haven’t seen this place it’s not much to look at – but that is part of the charm! When you first walk up to the door you hear crickets chirping. The exterior is kind of a “shack.” Inside is very “rustic.” There are peanut shell all over the floor and the atmosphere is very laid back.
If you like barbeque and southern style food this is the place for you. Portions are very big and prices are reasonable, $10 to $15 per person. The especially liked the sweet potato fries. I also hear the fried green tomatoes are good but I’ll have to try them next time! If you haven’t been to Johnny Reb’s yet, I would recommend a trip on over there.
